    Ok the latter part of your post i can agree with to en extent, my point is your reaching, no-one is perfect, i'd rather he was fighting Pac tonight but i ain't gonna run the dude down because he's chosen Marquez first.

    Vic Darchinyan is not actually black as you can see but he got a lot of hate here before because of his cockiness. Almost everyone rejoiced when he got KOed by Nonito.

    Don't be so sensitive just because Floyd is a brother. It's his attitude and not his skin color that people didn't like about him.

    I feel you bro and I aint judgin him as a fighter because like i said, i feel like he is the best hands down. I just dont like when ppl bring the race card into **** because it always goes against black ppl when it does, except for ofcoarse instances such as rodney king lol. Im just ready for him to go ahead and dust off marquez and fight the cotto vs. pac winner.
    I also apologize for the harsh words bro...we all just voicing our opinions.

    NONONONO is that he continoulsly contradicts himself. He said he was fighting for legacy first, then when he fought oscar he was money. Well my friend the reason he chose money is because it's easier to fight oscar, who cotto, margarito, cintron, willimans would have eradicated during that time, that fight the mention fighters. I have no doubt in my mind that the fighters i mentioned had a very very very good chance of beating the **** out of him, and they would all ko oscar. So he fought oscar. At least fight a cottley or something. I think even cottley would punish his little ****** ass. Come on people get realistic here. Make a fight against a pre margarito cotto easy and i'll give you credit. Make a fight easy against a paul williams and i'll give you credit. but fight baldomir, oscar and now marquez i'll call you a *****!!!

    On what grounds are making the following assumptions:
    -90-99 percent of the posters here on ESB are white.
    -not many african-american/european atheletes don't post in forums like this.

    *Saying that 90-99 pecent of the posters are white is an exageration. You have no proof that african-amer/euro don't atheletes hardly post in these of forums. Only fools will make that kind of statement without proof.

    What do you mean by that? ^

    It's funny that you and some people think Floyd is hated because he is black! That is false! Why the hell who'd you bring up Obama? It's natural for a president to be tested. He is not hated in the White House or by Americans or White Americans if you prefer. The US is still in a ****ing war not to mention that it's just recovering from the previous recession. Its citizens are waiting and watch the president's action. There will always be racism and we can't kill it YET.

    Anyway back to Floyd. Floyd is not hated because of he black. I will state why many hate Floyd. I respect Floyd's skills and talent(I know many people do) but I can never respect him as person.

    -Floyd Mayweather is an ass. He is rude and looks down people.
    -He's too arrogant. It's ok to have pride but he is just arrogant.
    -He makes him look stupid when is getting interviewed. Have you seen his interview with Brian Kenny? Priceless!:rofl

    I don't mean to offend you but you have such a long post and only a few sentence is valid.

    I don't hate Floyd but i'm not a huge fan of him either.

    The reasons for this is Floyd's personality and more importantly Floyd's post 135lb career.

    As for his personality..well i think he is a rude, arrogant ****. However i can happilly over look that and not let it interfere in my appraisal of him as a fighter.

    As a fighter i think he is amazing. I do wish sometimes that he would take a few more risks and try to close out the show more. He certainly could have done this against Marquez, but overall i do enjoy watching him fight.

    However his choice of opponents post 135lb have been less than steller. I can forgive him for picking Marquez as it was Floyd's first fight back in 2 years. I actually think a lot of people here are going over the top with their critisism of Floyd in this matter and have forgotten that in reality and with all due respect to Marquez, that this really was just a tune up fight for Floyd so it was stupid for anyone to expect him to fight Pac, Cotto or Mosley straight away. But if Floyd does want to get some proper respect and cement his legacy properly then he really does need to face Mosley and/or the winner of Cotto/Pac next

    This was an excellent post! People want to pretend like just because there are no longer Jim Crown laws, and lynchings, that racism doesn't exist and thats just not true. Racism is still alive and well in America. Im not saying as an excuse or to elicit sympathy, just stating a fact. Mayweather is not the good, quiet black man that white america wants like Mosley so they blast him for it. And its hard to get anyone on here to undertand it cause the majority of posters aren't black. I can tell when I see comments like "noob", "dude", and "fail" everywhere. They come from a different culture so its either hard or they just don't want to acknowledge that racial hate and discrimination still exist.

    :rofl
    :rofl Racism exist. It's not as bad as before! In my opinion it will be decades before racism completely vanish! There people who will say that racism is still great! :rofl
    You must be thinking why the hell am I using those laughing icons.
    I'm laughing because you think that Mayweather is hated because he's black. Many respect and recognize his boxing skills, but what's ruining him is his big mouth. He hardly shows any respect to anyone but himself. If try to act nicely and respect everyone and not talk about himself all the time he will probably get the respect that he is looking for. Respect is something that you must earn, like trust you can't just ask for it.

    Thank You for this post. This is all there is to it! Plain and Simple....1 flaw in your post Floyd Faced someone who was actually faster and punches harder and thats Zab Judah zab was quicker and punching with more hatred in his bones I will give you he isnt smarter but there is only 1 Fighter that is possibley smarter then Floyd and Floyd cant Fight him Bernard Hopkins.

    You all just want the bad guy to loose. Wont happen though pacman is next they must fight im tired of the pac vs mayweather threads he will finish
