Well my assumptions also come off of what other Kovalev fans have said. They liked the fact that Kovalev had this image of being this stonecold killer.
Has to make you wonder what type of crap ellerbe got up to at college age when he was just a kid and therefore crime was no big deal. Talk about exposing yourself in a forum, smh.
You asked if I would like Kovalev if I were black? IDK. but I sure as hell wouldn't like Stevenson if he pimped, abused a female relative of mine... Regardless of my race. Dude you have reached a new low today trying to downplay and beat around the bush regarding Stevensons past.
Ok let me clear this up once and for all. I know I'm dealing with trolls here. 1. Is the severity of what Stevenson did worse than what Kovalev has been continuously being doing. YES. Of course. 2. Why have I forgave Stevenson but still despise Kovalev? Because it's been 2 decades and in these 2 decades he's shown that he has reformed and can be a model citizen. Kovalev on the other hand has continuously made racist remarks and encouraged his fans. 3. Is bringing up Stevenson's age downplaying his crime? Sure a little. I mean you do have to factor in that Stevenson was most likely brought up in a **** poor shitty community and had to learn how to grow up himself. Does this excuse what he's done? No, but he's obviously changed and is not that same person anymore.
because your smart enough to have an idea of how smart i am, you know that im capable of examining all of your posts as a body in order to compile a profile, i dont just judge what you happen to feel like posting at the moment. the inconsistencies in logic that you apply, depending on who you are speaking about at the moment, are ridiculous to anyone who isnt looking at them through the cloud of your emotions. i dont bother getting this deep with dummies because i know they are intellectually incapable of deep self examination, but i think youre a smart guy, so dont discount what i see because its emotionally uncomfortable.
Ok show me an example where I wasn't forgiving to someone who clearly had the intention to reform. I'll admit I was wrong and inconsistent if you can do this.
So you admit that your assumptions about Kov are created from what specific Kov fans thought about that incident??? You have no clue how stupid you are ellerbe, its really quite amazing.
Trolls. and you aren't? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Some nerve you have man! Really, on so many levels you've set yourself up for failure and criticism in this thread.
Yes. It's a combination of everything. What I've seen from Kovalev's interviews, fights, other people's opinions etc. Where else am I going to come up with my assumptions? You can't be this slow.
Troy,never been able to do the link thing but go on YouTube and type in Troy Kings pound for pound list. I seen enough vids of him talking about black fighters and the assumption there's a different rule for white boxers,needless to say out of hundreds of videos I'm not gonna go looking through em all just to prove it. I've just discovered a good channel a guy called Shawn Newton,this guy knows his boxing and it's a breath of fresh air to hear someone who takes an interest in all the divisions and as an American living in Asia likes UK fighters along with those from the US,he goes to town on Ego and Troy King and their racist drivel,go check him out,I think you'll like him.
Sometimes I do troll. But the fact that you're ignoring the main points I've been emphasizing and continuously spazzing out about how I'm downplaying **** means you're just trolling to me. No matter what I say, you're not going to accept it unless I say we should still condemn Stevenson for what he's done.
Yes, I'm sure Troy does bring up race. We're talking about Ego. LMFAO! SHAWN NEWTON. That dude is the #1 race baiter always talking about the black boxing community. How the **** are you going to criticize Ego who doesn't even bring up race, and then use Shawn Newton as an example. You're a joke.
"you've set yourself up for failure and criticism in this thread." I really expected more from you. You know yourself that the people joining in on this conversation have a weird obsession for me or dislike me. I would never join in like a little ***** when 3-4 people you criticize like black clouds, naysayer, etc were arguing with you, and then act like you set yourself up for failure and criticism because 4 people are disagreeing with you.
