who has faced more unfair treatment and racism in their lives to the point where it affected their everyday lives?

the fact that any of them faced it in the first place needs to be discussed before anything
Floyd can't read. The guy has almost certainly never read a book in his entire life. Think about that. You can't expect him to have any perspective on this sort of stuff.
I don't really think this is a particularly valid thread to be honest.
Ali lived through a very hard, unfair period in History for African Americans.
Floyd is enjoying all the financial benefits of a more equal and open society.
Ali rose above racism and transcended boxing to become a role model for millions.
Floyd wallows in the thug life and is idolized by illiterate morons.
It is not a racial issue - its just that Ali is a decent, intelligent and open hearted human being.
Whereas Floyd is a retarded idiot who boxes very well.
Ali was HIMSELF a racist extremist with connections to violent fundamentalist regimes.
It is questionable who is the worst..
Both are the 2 biggest scum bags in boxing and both are figure heads of the 2 dumbest factions in all of boxing!
The ONLY thing we can say is that Ali only forced his wife to wear a headdress whereas Floyd beat the hell out of his mistress.

Adonis Stevenson...at the hands of Sergei Kovalev.
How about manny pacquiao at the hands of Floyd Mayweather or joe Calzaghe at the hands of Bernard Hopkins.
You literally couldn't be any dumber,
That was what I call a bold post. Something pushing emotional limits yet conservative enough to be just an opinion, and objective enough that everybody knows it's true.
Not for everyone's cup of tea I know, but I hardly think "dumb" would be a relevant word for it Lacey Boy.
Box Office's post is a less controversial but accurate assessment if you like that better.
Ali because people are obviously more open minded today than they were back then.
It is just that with Social Media you get to hear more of it from that small minority or smaller than it was back then. Any one with an internet connection can sit behind a computer and say a bunch of hate filled stuff directly to a famous person. However, if the celebrity was to shut that mode of communication down that would be it. They wouldn't have to fight for civil rights unlike their predecessors.
Many people believe racist banter is acceptable, so they may not even mean it out of pure hatred, but sitting behind a computer they become "insta tough" (Box-Office original).
Yeah :lol1:
I'll run with that one as well!

what about devon alexander and what he said about the chinese?
Well, given the perpetrator's race it is completely acceptable and you're supposed to laugh it off. The fact you brought it up is racist.
Floyd fans are almost 100% racist! Next to the nut bags who I'd judge only about 50/50 ironically, levelling any accusation of racism from the flowmo community an insult to the world in general.
On the other hand Floyd HIMSELF is not a racist, but Muhammad Ali is by far the most racist guy to ever box.
So basically the entire thread is a bit perplexing since both fighters in their own way represent the epitome of racism in the sport.
Ali of course faced some racism of his own as happened in the times whereas today racism occurs mainly in the other direction.
Go figure!
Maybe one day there will be "equivalence".

As Archie Bunker said when asked the question , who was the great American that declared the Indian was the most mistreated beaten-down race .
Geronimo .

Bottom line: Most of the **** Mayweather gets is for being a cunt, not being black. Ali lived in an era of segregation and definitely took a lot of heat just for being black. However, Ali was also a bit of a dick but that's no justification for not being allowed to eat in a restaurant with white people. Overall, the situations aren't comparable - Mayweather takes barely any **** that is undeserved. At the end of the day, Mayweather is an ignorant racist himself so if some other ignorant racists call him a few names too then I'm not bothered, he probably deserves it.
During the video, Mayweather called Pacquiao a “little yellow chump,” a “whore,” and a “******.” He also said, “Once I stomp the midget, I’ll make that mother****er make me a sushi roll and cook me some rice.” For good measure, he added, “Mother****er Pacquiao, he can’t speak no English.” Some things are too disgusting even for boxing. eff you Floyd! eff you!
