Sillakh said he had to fight as a kid because he was called n****r

And the winner for biggest dumbas on the planet goes to............ ....you. :poke:

The more I hear about Ukraine and Russia in these "Kovalev Is Racist" threads, the more I like them. The native ethnic groups in these nations still have their backbones. They refuse to allow themselves to be pigs led to the slaughter by liberal ideology that guilt trips the founding ethnic group to hand over everything to minority populations and invading immigrant hordes. This why they leave their native country to become a global star in America.

The word is not offensive when it's being used by whites between whites...it's a word for 'black person' ('negr', 'negro' (black) not 'n****r'), same as the word 'n1 gga' between blacks isn't offensive, on the contrary basically calling them 'a fellow black brother' (am I wrong?). So if it's not offensive between blacks and it's not offensive between whites, that's not the problem of the party using it - if the word simply to describe a black person is offensive to the black person in their point of view, obviously this is not going to lead to changing the term that is used amongst whites and not seen as offensive to appease the offended party....double standards? You are a clown man blacks use the word n***a and it is not cool. It is a unacceptable and derogatory word leftover from slavery times. the way blacks use of the word in speech nowadays is no different from women friends who call each other b**ch in conversation with each other. Its acceptable for them to do it between each other but let you call her a B**ch and see how she reacts.

Maybe he should stop being so sensitive and grow a pair and while he is at it spring for a passable chin if he wants to continue boxing as a pro. Sensitive?? if you could be a black man growing up in Russia you would be singing a different tone. Just how Jewish get pissed Mel Gibson still gets love in Hollywood. A lot of people still love Mel Gibson movies like Brave Heart and the Patriot and they don't think twice because there not Jewish. Most people dont care because it doesn't affect them or their race.

I'll try to find the full HBO coverage and upload it on youtube. I remember he said "They called me n****r and I said what? Who's n****r?" Let's replace it with black. "They called me black and I said what? Who's black?" Does that make sense to you? Unless Ismayl was color blind or something. nyegr means black. ismayl talks too much..how the f else you want us to call them. and what about countries Niger and Nigeria? :buttkick:

The people who claim that are pressing an agenda and it's beyond obvious.

It's 'common knowledge' that "it's dangerous for a black person to walk down the street" in the Ukraine. At least that's what we hear in my part of the world (California). Disagree, it highly depends on where and when and who you are. Now, maybe if you are one black man walking in some alley at night you might p1ss off some nationalist who could attack you. Then again, this is the same for any race anywhere randomly getting attacked - it's like saying it's dangerous for 1 white guy to be walking down a street or near a project where the residents are all black. I was in Kyiv, Ukraine (capital city) last summer and I saw a fair few black guys, many are students from Nigeria and other African countries, there was a few 'African Americans' even who were chatting with some locals in a subway station, a large group of black guys (probably tourists, I dunno) another time, and a funny situation on the subway where I was in a packed carriage and there was 1 black guy just standing in the middle, I think he might have been some sort of athlete or something but anyway no-one was staring at him or even paying attention to him really. Now, i'm not saying racist hate crimes don't exist, they definitely do, but it is understandable, multi-culturalism hasn't been forced onto the population and some simply don't want it, or are some brainwashed nationalists who are zenophobic or others who just harbour hate. The general population either doesn't mind/care or won't show any negative emotions. And to be honest, there was a story of a guy who was attacked in the early hours because he was speaking Ukrainian on his phone and some Russia-siding fools didn't like it. This is just instances of hate that can happen to anyone at any time, you can't just believe hearsay if you have no experience or true knowledge of what you are believing.

Before the Kovalev fight there was a feature on Sillakh's childhood, he said he was picked on because he's half black and other kids called him n****r, so he got into a lot of fights. He grew up in south eastern Ukraine where people speak primarily Russian. So people need to stop with this "the word is not offensive in Eastern Europe" bull****. Your right. Over in Russia you know they don't give a sh** about African Americans. The N word probably flys left and right. They are over there beating up gays so I'm sure African Americans get threated like second class citizens in Russia.

East European counteries are full of extreme racist savages, you only have to watch à game of football and see how coins are pelted are black, Brown and asian players and racist chants shouted It's 'common knowledge' that "it's dangerous for a black person to walk down the street" in the Ukraine.

Lol seriously? Yes they do. They phrase African American was created to replace black because people were offended, even tho most blacks in the US have no relationship with africa LOL....it was created to get $$. The only black person I know that uses that term for real is Jesse Jackson. All it does is alienates American negros from the negros of the rest of the world, which is not good. Negro offended blacks for some reason (why the word 'black' is used to describe negro I never understood....it sounds like blanc, which means white). If Charlize Theron or Steve Nash became American citizens, they would be considered African American....and get whatever 'benefits' came with being a 'minority'. I now consider myself negro....that's what the rest of the world uses (in some way shape or form).

Isn't Sillakh half Caucasian??? Just like Andre Ward. sillakh did not descend from heaven to suffer in penance for our sins.

You're a bigot.

I hold a Russian visa for work and travel there regularly. They are a particularly xenophobic breed. Some areas are worse than others but I would not like to be a black person living anywhere in Russia as I have seen first hand the level of exclusion and marginalization they experience. At #41, I said: Black persons (and/or "half breeds") are not welcomed in the "former Soviet block" countries... Those countries are highly xenophobic, etc... But these people here only want an "educational thread" -- as if we wouldn't know already what the "racial issues" are in the U.S.

You only have to look at how black football payers are treated in Russia to see how bad the problem is there

To be honest it looks like this has been blown out of proportions, I alway try to keep out of threads about race but this one is getting out of hand. I have to agree with this. Why is this still being talked about? NSB can do absolutely nothing about it, so all that's going to happen is 50page race discussion threads.
