Strange Behaviour of Mayweather Fans

1. I don't think that Sonofisis sig is acceptable.
2. The way he uses it , is also not acceptable.
That sig can be read 2 ways.
It can be read that he is being called a dergatory word for hating whites but yet he say's thankyou and leaves it at that.
He doesn't say p.s I DON'T HATE WHITES.

There are many different sports where black people have not been dominant i.e Gymnastics , Swimming , Rugby etc etc etrc
And yes they are all professional Athletes.

I could have sworn that we were discussing pro athletes in the context of the sport of boxing, so why are you going off on a tangent about something that is utterly irrelevant? You cited the so-called success of amateur boxers from eastern Europe, in turn, I responded that I'm not concerned with amateur boxers, and you then respond with a non sequitur. Why?

Exactly the reason why many Blacks & latinos turned to boxing as a way out.
Forced through necessity.
No prospects no job .....BOX.

That's a bogus excuse though as to why the whites who are just as predominant numerically, and even more so, would not attain the same level of achievement. Are you suggesting that blacks and latinos have more discipline? This is not a claim by me, but the implication given by you.

The FACT is when a Black or Latino fighter has become established or shown to have potential they have been given the best equipment and trainers to further improve themselves.

Nonsense, almost laughable.. I won't even attempt to rebut it since it goes with out saying. You have the burden of proof for this nonsense claim..

You have yet to prove that White people have had little Impact in the Sport of Boxing.

Yes I have effectively done so, by demonstrating their absence..

And you have ignored that for 50 years a large percentage of the white populace was forbidden to partake in professional boxing yet had many successes in the Amateur ranks against the very same Black boxers that went on to be professionals.

Citation? For as long as I remember there have been just as many whites who participate in boxing as are blacks and Latins. Even more actually..

You also deny the fact that Amateur Boxing has any link or influence on Professional Boxing.

This is reaching. Certainly it pales in comparison to the influence that pro boxers have on pro boxing.

As I have already said....you are just an angry black kid looking for an argument.

Ad hominem - attacking an opponent's character rather than answering his argument.

Not every white person is a racist you know.

This is immaterial and frankly, it doesn't concern me either way since I'm unruffled by ignorance..

Where is your proof that White people have no influence in Boxing History?

Stop misrepresenting what I've stated. I've stated that the influence was relatively minimal, which is different than no influence at all. The proof is in the pudding, and given this universal negative, the burden isn't on me since I've claimed to not have the evidence of a positive to begin with..

I don't have to provide proof because the History books are there for you to research.
However these History books seem to not exist in your world.

What "history books" are you referring to here? I am referring to the general recent history of modern boxing, as it concerns the fighters..

[moofo]

I am not going to carry this on because it is going nowhere and you still have no grounds for stating white people have no influence in boxing.
I come here to discuss boxing not race related issues in somebody else's mind.The bottom line is I can't be arsed.

I have my beliefs and you have yours.
Good day to you.

I agree with that statement, he would be like a John Ruiz type outcast. I think people are harder on white boxers who run because black gyms have a different training style than white so we are more accustomed to white guys fighting a certain way and give black guys some slack(ive trained in both...watch the rocky trilogy that is pretty much spot on). Look at Barrera, he did in my opinion pretty good boxing to almost beat an incredible boxer in Pacman and there is pretty much a consensus on here that he ran, yet mayweather doesnt throw a combo all night against oscar and these lunatics will fight to the death to deny that he ran or at least showed zero aggression, something we can all agree should have been used to score a few more rounds in oscar's favor.

I just can't seem to grasp how people are eqauting barrera to fighting Pacman to Floyd fighting Oscar. There is no comparison. when i was watching Floyd/Oscar, I saw Floyd standing right in his face and Oscar doing nothing. and when he did try something Floyd was gone. How can you say Floyd showed no aggression in that fight. he landed more power punches than oscar landed total punches. Man conctantly, everyday, there is hyprocrisy and damn right foolishness on this board.

Wow, is this prick serious? The wanna-be hockey player with "Team Nordic" in his signature talking about Black or white nationalism? How ironic that you're the one to bring this up, especially after the ruckus Kelly Pavlik created concerning all of the insecure white folk who post here who did not have a hero before hand, since the white contribution to boxing is so minimal and always has been..

what a ****** a post. And everybody in the world doesn't speak in English by the way. In French you dont North or Northern Americans. You just say Nord Americains.

think before you start blabbering. at least you got to the point of making no point instead of typing 8 paragraphs with no substance or premise to them.

You obviously have a hard time understanding how logic works. Belief does not constitute proof or refutation, but merely expresses wishful thinking.

Example of a universal negative: No planet other than earth supports life

Universal affirmative: All planets capable or supporting life, does support life

Burden of proof - The responsibility of proving a disputed charge or allegation.

Both of these assertions can be disputed; however, the affirmative claim is usually based on the 'seeing is believing' application, and conversely, that which is not seen, there is no proof for. My contention is that I've been to all of these planets in question (translation: I have followed the history of boxing for a while now), and have seen no evidence for life. This position is supported by the link that I've already provided - Greatest fighters of all time, in addition to this thread/article here , dealing with the concept of a perfect fighter. I have thus, only been able to find pockets of life on a limited number of planets, which supports my initial assertion of minimal success, in comparison to the other en****** already mentioned. If it is too hard for you to accept, I can understand, but please do not try and impose your circular reasoning on me as it won't work..
