Floyd always states that if he were white he would be treated as the best boxer in the world. Well my question is "IF" Floyd was white would the fans be asking why isn't 7 days enough to cut off testing or would they ask why Manny is taking such a hard stand against testing. Give your opinion as to why race would or would not make a difference.
Please no flaming; I will respect all opinions but please don't turn the thread into a Floyd/Pac bashing thread.
My opinion is this: Floyd may have a case as long as he is only talking about what he does in the ring, but as soon as you include some of his personal problems add that to a racist rant and you have people hating in you for more than boxing. You have people that don't like you because you have been blessed and you’re still acting very unappreciative at times. So to me in the ring Floyd has a point; if it was based only on in the ring work maybe if he were white he would be acknowledged more. But this is the real world and Floyd outside of the rings is not perfect, so to me with his outside stuff, he gives some people a reason to hate on him. That’s my fav boxer but I call it how I see it. That being said they never promote all the charity he does and homeless feedings he is responsible for.
I did indeed answer the question. there is no such thing as an unbiased poster. you should loosen up
there are; granted there aren't that many but they exist.
Out of all the bull**** you didnt answer the one question I asked, but then again you're a bias poster anyway, but I like how you stated the bolded...so with that said you should grow up.

wifebeater's personality transcends race. if wifebeater jr was any other race, his racist rants, slanders, and douchebaggery would still be hated and looked down upon as low class scum. wifebeater jr just has a personality that any race, any culture would/should despise.

i wish floyd was from north korea. so that kim jong-il will have him killed if he backs out from a fight with pac... oh shet he's dead already
Haha..
Floyd's been acting like Kim Jong Il already. No OST, no fight.
That's hilarious! LOL.
i just can;t imagine floyd being white... he's acting thug. haha. who will his friend be, eminem instead of 50cent?

well i think its fan base. there are more white boxing fans (idk) but if there are then he'd have more fans if he were white.
If there were more black boxing fans he'd have less if he were white.
I think people just tend to be a little more bias towards someone that looks like them
I agree with this but he'd still have more fans in general, with white dominated media plus he'd get more ppv buys with white fans(generally higher income).
I doubt he would be treated any different, and that actually sounds like a cop out to me.
Floyd is 100% responsible for the critism he has recieved, so that "victim" sh1t is wack to me. Not only wack...but direspectful because there are not only blacks but several other races that have to deal with hardcore racism on a daily basis. Again all the heat he gets is due to him bringing it upon himself.
I mean Tyson was worse than Floyd, yet there isn't a boxer in the sport that was as popular as Iron Mike. Look at Chad Johnson.....he talks sh1t but people love him as well.
What I find funny is Floyd wants to be hated and does whatever it takes for people to dislike him.....only to turn around and tries to play the victim (something I find very pathetic).
C'mon you actually believe this?

If Floyd were white you'd be kissing his ass.
This is interesting. Floyd's race never even register in my radar screen. On the other hand, I've always thought that if Pac is not an asian midget I don't think Floyd would even entertain these stupid accusations about Pac. I also observe that fans from countries, which I don't want to mention here, just naturally hate Pacquiao for being Pacquiao.
If Mayweather were white, he'd be given NO RESPECT WHATSOEVER.
They'd say he's boring, stiff and robotic, and lacks natural athleticism. And they'd say his opposition has been no good.
He'd be regarded about the same as Zsolt Erdei or Sven Ottke.
He would be your favorite fighter.... So just STFU.
