Shane Mosley and Floyd Mayweather african americans fan base

Because Mosley isn't ghetto.

 

STFU!

It's because Floyd has marketed himself towards young blacks, while Shane has not. Period.

 

Who says Floyd has more black fans than Mosley? How could you possibly know if that's true?

 

Mayweather appeals to the same fans that Tyson appealed to, real people. The hood.

Mosley appeals to mainstream white america, Mosley does appeal to black african americans as well but I guess they feel Mayweather is keeping it more real

 

By acting like an ignaunt ghetto fool, right?

 

Mosley is mexican.

 

Keeping what real? Mayaweather is from Gran Rapids MI, Mosley is from the HOOD in P-Town Cali.

 

No.

Just because you think black folks like ignorant ghetto **** more than other youngsters, doesn't make it so. It has more to do with the age group these guys are in, and when they came up, rather than acting "ghetto"

 

Keeping it real in the sense that he still rolls deep in the hood with the same hood people and it might just be that Mayweather and the whole music thing appeals to the hip hop community

 

Mayweather didn't grow up in the streets, he grew up in a gym. Mayweather is not from the hood, he is from Grand Rapids Michingan. And I can almost bet you, his entourage isn't made up of childhood friends, but people who hang on to him for the money.

 

its not even that....

mosley has an introverted character
floyd has an extroverted character

I dont think black people are too much into boxing because black people would rather watch basketball or football...but will pay attention when there is a mega star..

black people have been spoiled in the sport of boxing

jack johnson>sugar ray robinson>joe Louis>ALI>sugar Ray Leonard>Tyson>RJJ


To get black support... you have to be super talented & pretty extroverted (a very outgoing personality)

 

Louis was before SRR.

 

my bad...

 

keeping it real LOL. Floyd is one of the fakest guys out their with his "gangsta image". And real people? the hood? wtf is that supposed to mean? From my experience people from the hood are pretty fake. They act crazy hard in front of their friends or start **** to impress them. But when they are by themselves they are generally nice apporchable people. Wtf is real about acting hard in front of your friends?
