Floyd Mayweather is a public figure, and when public figures open their mouths, be it for marketing or anything else there's going to be blow-back of some kind. More often than not black athletes take the docile road to marketing themselves so they can collect those all important endorsement dollars. But Floyd's team calculated he could get more duckets by saying whatever the fvck came to his mind. So I get what he did and why he's hated. The hardest thing for me as an African American is to hear and read the comments of some non-blacks, just like it might be difficult for Filipino fans to hear slurs about Manny.
It's natural and comes with the territory....
Why do people on here try to assimilate the hate Floyd recieves to that that Ali recieved; wasn't Ali's era so many times more filled with hate, racism, and intolerance?
Floyd is a woman beater and a racist, some fans are inexplicably coy about it, and he has never faced any repercussions for it from the sport; so how anybody can ignore his antics and claim that Floyd is only hated because of his skin color is just rediculous.
And before someone comes here and says I'm insecure of bbc's, I'm not, I am a huge Floyd fan.
No my friend. Floyd is hated for the same reasons Ali was hated. Floyd is far from the only athlete or celebrity to ever be accused of domestic violence. There are a number of guys in the UFC who are under investigation for the same thing. But Floyd is the guy garnering most of the hate.
Ali talked down to people far more than Floyd ever did. Ali called whites Devils, compared Joe Frazier to a Gorilla, and even said nice things about the Ku Klux Klan but you idiots call him "great" and Floyd a "dirtbag" lol.
Just like that woman in the video you guys are saying you don't like him for "something else" when we all know why most people really don't like Floyd.
Don't you know, if Ali did it, it doesn't count, simply cuz it's Ali? What Ali did to Joe Frazier is worse than anything Floyd has done in his boxing career. To your point, imo of course race plays a part in why some people hate Mayweather. White people (and even misguided black people) hate to see an arrogant/flashy black man as the best in his sport, unapologetically speaking his mind and not giving a damn what anyone thinks.
Floyd was a nice guy for the first few years of his career, and he couldn't sell out an arena in his home town. By adopting a polarizing persona, he became the biggest star (and PPV draw) in boxing. His growing number of haters are partially due to fans of fighters he's beaten (Gatti, DLH, Hatton, Cotto, Canelo, and Pacman) as well. But anyone claiming that race isn't at least a part of the reason he's hated, is in denial.
He has other videos where he contradicts himself he always disses guys like GGG, Pac, and Kovalev but complains that non black people are witch hunting and discrediting Floyd, yet he hates on all non black fighters.
Honestly I feel bad for you, you sound poor as **** bro. Like it's crazy, that even on the Internet, I can tell, you are poor as ****.

Thats an interesting post.
Lets and take all of your "facts" and pretend he had a 40-9 record instead of his 49-0, does anyone still hate him?
Lets get real, if he wasnt so good no one would care.
Dude just stop, it's sad to see you resort to such a pointless argument. Just walk away from the computer.
Ali was hated because he was black, c0cky, his religion, and stood against the war.
Floyd is hated because he is dirtbag, not just because of his personal issues, but because he treats and talks to people like ****, and because he has perpetuates the image of the insecure unintelligent black man.
There was nothing insecure or intelligent about Ali, and Floyd should never been remotely compared to him, Floyd won't even be talked about before long.

I didn't twist anything. And Ali did not say he was hated for his political stances. The man himself said he was hated for being black and c0cky. Plain and simple
Floyd's personal issues are definitely not good but lets not pretend he's hated simply because of his personal life.

just like ur insecure about our bbcs?
Keep talking, you doing a great job of proving everything I say, to be true.
And here he is! The insecure black man!
Hate is a powerful emotion. Takes time to build. And knowledge. Animal lovers “hate” Vick because he abuses dogs. Some may “hate” Floyd because he beats women. But how many of these latter people would actually be involved in boxing, or buy a PPV? How was Tyson’s popularity affected after and during the rape? Conclusion: not many boxing people “hate” Floyd because of his character. It’s boxing. You can get away with being a total dick.
So what’s the deal with Floyd? Answer: He’s an embarrassment in the ring and he has hijacked the sport! How can you continue to like boxing when you have a clown like this as the king?????? The guy is everything boxing should NOT be! King of Avoidance rather than Engagement! Boxing fans were still buying the PPV hoping to see this king knocked off. But most now are accepting that he is a master of the run and grab. And ensuring all odds stacked on his side. So folks, it’s his boxing “ability” that generates the “hate”. Boxing people could care less if he ate children!
I never said Ali wasn't hated, and again, stop trying to twist my words around.
Being hated for being outspoken and ****y and standing for actual political issues, and being hated because your a complete piece of ****, are two very different things you fcking product of incest.

LOL I love it. Ali was hated in his prime. Only now that he is old and cannot speak do people want to give him his just due. Yes, Ali took political stances but that was not the only reason he was such a controversial figure. Like I said watch the f*ckin video retard.

Don't twist my words around. I said white white people can afford to buy more, not that they buy into tue culture more.
Smh, you really trying to argue a point that rap isn't a black art that has a major influence on black society? Just stop...
And don't ever try to compare Ali to fcking Mayweather, Ali took political stances and fought to better the black mans life. Floyd made them look like every ratchet criminal we see on the news saying, "I dindoo nuffin".
