In regards to racists on the thread

[K-Yo]

I have started seeing people being labelled racists on the thread unfairly.

Its natural for white people to root on white boxers and coloured people, like myself, to root for coloured fighters, but its not right to start labelling people as racists, its a term which is too lightly used these days.

Colour doesn't bother me at all.

Roy Jones Jr is one of my all time favourites along with Ali, Lewis, Leonard etc. Out of the modern boxers I like Witter, Gayweather, Lacy, Haye, Dawson, Johnson, Taylor and countless others yet people think I'm a racist.

LOL

Most people are prejustice in some way shape or form, that's down to social conditioning and personal experience, however the problems begin when a person cannot accept a certain prejustice is wrong.

In essence, there is a difference between those who are prejustice and know its is wrong, and those who are Prejustice and justify that way of thinking.

I've never had any racial hate towards anyone, normal hate? yes, but not racial.

Why even let it get to you, if people know it will get to you they'll use it. If your not a racists why would it bother you, it's someone typing on a computer that you will never see... You REALLY care what they think?!

Taylor vs Pavlik and HAtton vs Mayweathre gathered huge crowds cause of the colour thing.

Marquez vs Pacman, I barely saw anybody at the bars.

There are many racists though, I see a bunch of dudes on here who refuse to give anyone but a black fighter credit.. and if a white/latin/other ethnicity fighter wins against a black fighter it's always because of something.. same with some of these white cats and latinos.
There is a lot of it going around.

the racism only becomes a problem when someone your debating with tries to pass off his racial biases as opinions based on facts. For example when Tunney argues how certain fighters can do no wrong.. it's fine that he supports mostly white fighters but it becomes silly when he acts like that is not all that motivates his opinions.

Ignore those *******s and keep rooting for black fighters. It doesn't mean you're a racist at all.

A racist is someone who hates people of a certain race or nationality. There are a few racists here who hate all Latin fighters, or all white fighters, or all black fighters. Every time a fighter of that race they hate wins, they'll discredit him and try to prove he's really no good.

But your rooting for black fighters because you're black is not at all racist, it's only natural! To love your own race or nationality is okay, it's just hate for other races or nationalities that's not.
