I'm not racist, I just don't like "thug" fighters.

    The Mayweather family is just a clan of ***********.

    You got Floyd Sr. whose boxing career ended when he was shot by his own brother while he was holding Floyd Jr.

    You got Roger in jail for beating women.

    The Floyds rarely talk to each other, and who knows what kind of "live my dreams through my son" mentality might have been going on there.

      And you say you're not racist?

      You just said that because someone is white, even if they display the same traits as a black person, the fact that they are white "gives them a few" points, which makes them "better", which means that you're racist

        I wouldn't be surprised one bit if Floyd slapped women often, but sometimes pleading no-contest (or settling out of court) is just a quick cheap way to get out of something.

        How many times has Oscar paid off women who accused him of sexual assault?

        2? 3?

          I may be using the wrong word to say they're behaving in a "thug" manner but it's still a flashy, materialistic and arrogant image and I don't care for it. I don't think less of people that like it just like I don't think less of someone for liking country (which I detest) and wearing boots boots and a cowboy hat and acting religious, but it still irritates me.

          Even if PBF and Toney are cool guys in real life, the arrogant and often ignorant (in Toney's case, dressing up as a mexican to insult to peurto rican Ruiz) public image they protray annoys me. Since I don't know them in real life, I can only respond to the way they project themselves and wish to be seen.

              Dude he was acquitted of that after his girlfriend admitted to exagerating in the police document. He did plead to the bar fight but it was not women, it was with the bouncers and his entourage.

                That's not the issue here. You are saying that you dislike a character trait: behaving, acting or dressing in a way that (to you) is thuggish. You then go on to mention people who exhibit these traits, but the only one who you don't hate because of this is the white guy. You are not just "supporting" him in that you wish he wins when he fights, you are saying that a characteristic that you don't tolerate is OK when displayed by him because he's white, while at the same time stating you hate black fighters for acting the same. THAT is racist.

                    Im not saying he didn't, Im saying I don't know I wasn't there. I don't live them, I don't know what happened so Im not about to comment or call someone a woman beat just because the media says so. We need to watch what we call people and the perceptions we have of people. The media does not practice true journalism, they are simply storytellers at best.
