Claressa Shields calls herself a gangsta

why don't you go f#ck your self you and your gang. come to my hood and test me sambo. I wont have ten guys with me like you would have to. Great, another racist. Reported. And I wouldn't need 10 cats for a hoe like you

Lots of women have called themselves "gangsta" including pop stars like Lana Del Rey. I guarantee you you wouldn't call that white girl a thug. And plenty of thugs rape and assault women, that's what Kov is accused of in 2 different cases. So, by your logic, beating women and raping them doesn't make you a thug, but talking about yourself in a grandiose matter (which is the only thing Shields has been accused of) is. Good to know. How about you mind your own business and don't worry about what my people call each other? That's our business, not yours & you aint coming to the hood to test nobody, so mind ya B.I. why don't you go f#ck your self you and your gang. come to my hood and test me sambo. I wont have ten guys with me like you would have to.

Dude I mean why are we doing this...I explained that I use terms for people that apply to them...just because a thug does something it doesn't mean that it 100% makes someone a thug if they do those things that a thug also does. If Kov is going around beating up women and raping them...then yeah I would say he is a thug...I personally don't think that is what he is doing, even if what he is doing is wrong (I am not sure at all what he has done or hasn't done so I don't really have an opinion at this point). I don't know who that girl is at all really so I can't comment on her.

Claressa called herself a gangsta and yes generally sounds like a thug...Kov was accused of 'sexual' assault...if he is guilty you could call him a rapist or sexual predator etc. If he is guilty of making racial remarks then he may be a racist etc. The term thug would not really apply there.

That's our business, not yours & you aint coming to the hood to test nobody, so mind ya B.I.

OK thanks for the reply...I think that is a broad umbrella for the term but that's fine...not sure if you meant to say the bolded part that way either...highlighted that for you all good, yeah those who use race to harm others are thugs in my opinion, those who take pride in their race are cool nothing wrong with that.

By yall stupid logic. Yall would be disrespecting me the same way. Judging me the same way. I talk to yall ever day we all from diffrent backgrounds and for the most part don't judge or label each other. But if yall saw how i looked, the way i dress, heard how i talk, saw where i came from, people i grew up with or associate with. Yall would stop judging me based off my opinions on boxing topics, but start judging me based off things that have nothing to do with boxing. Things that are gonna offend me. Why? Cuz ima minority! Ima black man. And the last thing i want is to be judged based off how i fcking talk, judged off the people i grew up around, cuz my family loud, Why cant u respect that im diffrent from you?? You aint gatta understand shyt!! But why u gatta look down on me? Make me feel like im 2nd class citizen just cuz u don't understand me? I aint assault nobody, i aint rob nobody, rape nobody, extort nobody, take advantage of nobody. But im still being called a thug? Yall need to put yall selves in the shoes of minority b4 saying the shyt yall b saying! I can't speak for the comments of others on here...and I'm not saying I've never said some racist sh.it before in my life...but I treat people how they act...and I judge people based on how they act/look...they doesn't really have anything to do with race, for me anyway. I know some people will judge people based on race regardless...look at that dude's post above mine...he basically is making his point clear about white people...and I can't change someone's mind who is thinking like that, so you have to move on and not waste your time and in general not try to deal with people like that...that is easier said than done of course. Talking/acting a certain way doesn't necessarily make you out to be that thing...but I don't think you can be mad if people view you in that way either, when they are forming their judgment on you. It's like that Dave Chappelle stand-up about women/Halloween costumes...some women that dress like whores may not be whores, but they are wearing a whore's uniform. I know talking like that is part of black culture in a way...and how some black people can get called Uncle Tom etc if they deviate too much from that culture...I'm sure that is not a fun scenario to get blacklisted or ridiculed from your own people...so I could see how that would make some not want to deviate too much from that stuff, or how some could have parts of them that are like that, even if they aren't like that 100% of the time. But when I see someone like SRL and Claressa...I don't think race really even comes into my mind...I look at them and say 'SRL seems like a cool guy, I like him, I wouldn't mind hanging out with him'...for Claressa, I am saying, man I hope I never have to deal with her for 1 second in my life...it's not a race thing for me...there are a lot of white people who would fit in that same boat for me as Claressa is.

Im a minority and u acting like a lil b11tch right now....if u wanna act like an idiot then people will treat u like an idiot.

She talks like a thug man..idk why that is so offensive for some people to hear...you or anyone else being offended by that, are basically saying that all black people talk like that, or that she is talking 'black'...that's the racist part, that's you doing that, not me. And I'm replying to you because you joined in on that guy's comment to me...others may have made racial comments in disguise about her but I haven't. I said she seems like a thug based on her actions and her language...I don't see how anyone could say otherwise really. By yall stupid logic. Yall would be disrespecting me the same way.

Ugh, once again White boys who are either old/lame AF don't know what slang means. To call yourself "gangsta" in a hood sense doesn't mean that you're actually a gangster. Actual gangster's don't call themselves "gangsta", they usually call themselves "real g's" or "real nxggaz" or "goons" or "real ass cats" or something like that. "Gangsta" in this sense means that she's tough in what she does. Also, for future reference, to call yourself a "pimp" doesn't necessarily mean you have ladies out on a street corner. To "pimp" something out can mean to make something better (i.e. Pimp My Ride) Or it can mean to be really adept or proficient at something, (i.e. "I pimped the game before it pimped me). Good to give you lame ass motherfxckers a lesson in slang so you can stop the racist dog whistling Oh please, these racist Mexicans & white boys think that Serena's a hoodrat too. They just hate black people in general, but just won't admit it, so they point out tokens that they do like, but will turn on them in a heartbeat and they will be "ghetto" and "hoodrats" to them too. Like this racist right below me Not fair. Please, I can host some of the most so-called "beautiful" women in the world without makeup & they would look terribly too. https://img3.thelist.com/img/gallery/unrecognizable-photos-of-celebs-without-makeup/katy-perry-1483996652.jpg https://img4.thelist.com/img/gallery/unrecognizable-photos-of-celebs-without-makeup/intro-1510756592.jpg https://img.allw.mn/content/www/2009/02/adriana-lima-sans-fin-2_400x400.jpg https://img.allw.mn/content/www/2009/02/britney-sans-fin-3_400x400.jpg so when they call each other ni q qa every 30 seconds in the hood they are not really black???

Its no point!! They gon keep labeling this boxers Hoodrats, Thugs, Ghetto, etc. And keep expecting blacks to not get offended when its obviously racial! Then they will turn around and act like they aint say shyt. But these same guys will whine and point out anything n everything they perceive to he racist towards their people! She talks like a thug man..idk why that is so offensive for some people to hear...you or anyone else being offended by that, are basically saying that all black people talk like that, or that she is talking 'black'...that's the racist part, that's you doing that, not me.

people who steal lands and celebrate it annually, bomb whole cities, molest children, produce n sell psych meds and opiods that kill millions, those who practice fractional reserve banking, drakonian laws, alter foods (gmos), poison the air, water, use their racial superiority to harm others, there is more but thats a real thug... there are also those lower level thugs who act tough, sell drugs on street corners, and destroy their own neighborhoods n kill each other over colors amongst other stupid things. OK thanks for the reply...I think that is a broad umbrella for the term but that's fine...not sure if you meant to say the bolded part that way either...highlighted that for you

What is your definition of thug people who steal lands and celebrate it annually, bomb whole cities, molest children, produce n sell psych meds and opiods that kill millions, those who practice fractional reserve banking, drakonian laws, alter foods (gmos), poison the air, water, use their racial superiority to harm others, there is more but thats a real thug... there are also those lower level thugs who act tough, sell drugs on street corners, and destroy their own neighborhoods n kill each other over colors amongst other stupid things.

That's what all Fox News watching racists say along with "I have a Black friend" & "I don't see race". I see you. You aint named one crime she's committed, yet you're calling her a thug. She's a fighter. She's supposed to talk tough and intimidate her opponents. That's her job. And it's not her fault she comes from a poor background. She talks & acts the way poor people do. It doesn't make her a bad person or a thug. Its no point!! They gon keep labeling this boxers Hoodrats, Thugs, Ghetto, etc. And keep expecting blacks to not get offended when its obviously racial! Then they will turn around and act like they aint say shyt. But these same guys will whine and point out anything n everything they perceive to he racist towards their people!

the real thugs have on suits n ties and run the world... not sure why this is even a big deal to anyone What is your definition of thug

Not with what Kovalev is accused of. 2 different women with no knowledge of behavior have accused him of assault, including on an airplane. He's been recorded making racial remarks. If you can imply Claressa Shields is a thug because she talks tough in interviews, then the label should apply to him as well Claressa called herself a gangsta and yes generally sounds like a thug...Kov was accused of 'sexual' assault...if he is guilty you could call him a rapist or sexual predator etc. If he is guilty of making racial remarks then he may be a racist etc. The term thug would not really apply there.

the real thugs have on suits n ties and run the world... not sure why this is even a big deal to anyone

what has she ever done to be called a thug?? what actions of hers would make you agree she is a thug? she was born.... their logic

Yeah I use words in situations where they are appropriate...just because someone does something bad, it doesn't make them a 'thug'...you have to use the word in an appropriate context...a better example of a 'thug' you could have mentioned who is a white boxer is Khurtside...I would say he is more or less a thug.

Oh stop it with the MLK bullshxt. You already admitted that you wouldn't call Kovalev a thug even though he has TWO different women accusing him of assault, but you'll call a Black woman one who's never been accused of doing anything wrong because she speaks a certain way to promote fights.

I don't think I made any ignorant comments...and again part of why MLK was so revered by many (of all colors) is his message that he hoped people would be judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin...people are judging Claressa by her actions and language etc...not her color...well I'm not anyway. If you want to get on some of these other guys for making racial comments about her that's fine...but you responded directly to my post and made those racial and other comments towards me, so I felt I should respond back to you. I am not a huge fan of the #metoo movement...unfortunately a lot of women today muddy the water for women who really are/were assaulted...I give any man the presumption of innocence until proven guilty, well if it isn't obvious that he/she is guilty. I've heard before that Kov probably cheats on his wife, like many athletes...so I think if that is true then he is a sleazy guy for sure and I have no real respect for him there...whether he is just a flirt with women or if it is something more, I am not sure...the facts haven't really all come out yet. I find it hard to believe he punched a woman in the face...I just don't really believe that based on what I've seen/heard about that. But yeah again I base my reactions to stuff like that not on the severity of the crime, or necessarily who is accused (if someone is continually accused of something, they could be being set up, but more likely is that in that case, where there is smoke there is fire...so who is accused does matter at times), but based on the evidence. I don't think Kovalev seems like the best guy in the world but I am not ready to say he is anything worse than the average guy at this point...if more facts come out about the case I reserve the right to change my mind. Wouldn't really call him a thug even if he was found to be a sexual assaulter etc though...would probably just call him a piece of sh.it. Oh stop it with the MLK bullshxt. You already admitted that you wouldn't call Kovalev a thug even though he has TWO different women accusing him of assault, but you'll call a Black woman one who's never been accused of doing anything wrong because she speaks a certain way to promote fights.
