    There are many examples of things both legal and unethical.

    There are many examples of guys fouling guys and the guy on the receiving end doesn't sucker punch or otherwise return the foul.

    Forget that you are an Honorary Mayweather for 12 seconds and watch what happened with an open mind. Your hero returned Ortiz's hug and then caught him as he backed off unaware.

    ....That's a cheap shot, sweetie.

    No one said my mistake was your fault. But you felt the need to speak on it... You played yourself by offering up you 2 cents.

    And the election of Obama is proof of that.:patsch
    Lots of people around the world loved Ali even in his prime. This is not true to the same extent with Floyd, who brings hate all on himself for reasons that have to do with nothing other than himself. You analogy just doesn't work, man.

    I say again, Floyd gets a lot of hate, and that's why his legacy will be hurt if the fight doesn't get made.

    America hates disrespectful pricks who act "entitled" based on a false perception of how much better they think they are than everyone else. America embrace black men who have strong character, who speak up on meaningful topics and who are respectful. There are a lot of outspoken black folks who are beloved.... Floyd gets hate because he deserves it.... You act like an ass and you'll get treated like one.
