I am sorry I had to make this thread. It was made for Ignorant people. Yes ignorant people need love too. I am tired of hearing people throw around the word "racist" when they have very poor understanding of what the word means. The word racist is often time confused with the words stereotype and prejudice. Although they can be used in combination... Please learn your words people. (=
Oh, does anybody have anymore (not racist) Prejudice and Stereotypical boxing quotes?
its not really racism in boxing, its just a tool for marketing. It adds more intrigue to the sport. Its in Soccer, and many other sports. Not that big of a deal. Fans are the ones that take it out of context, not really the fighters.
