Floyd Mayweather Is Right..HBO are racist ****s.

[P4PKING_2008]

Oh my God p4p, you are ******ed. HOw can you disagree with them bashing the spinks vs taylor fight when it was boring as ****, spinks running away from taylor the whole time, if he would have stood there and fought it would have been different...but he was a little ***** the whole fight, they both deserve bashing after that borefest. And about Zab getting the worst critisism>? DUH!! He's the biggest loser welter has to offer, you need to open your eyes my man, Floyd handled him, Cotto handled him....he's a joke, and you should be ashamed to support such a fighter, I can't wait for Clottey to knock his ass out, that will be hilarous, let's see what excuse you put then. He was never p4p, never will, p4p all star = mayweather, deal with it.

The faggot. Is back. In case ya'll didn;t know. I ran this fool off the site. He is seriously a *****. Ya'll should see his pics.

Tell me toincito what does Cottos ass taste like?

Just because half of the top 10 P4P is white doesnt mean you have to cry about it.

Another great comment from a racist hillbilly.

Toincito...how u doing , man? Howz that chulita of yours?

By chuilita you mean boyfriend. I am sure he is fine.

So Manny Steward is racist towards blacks?

He is.

I strongly disagree with the reasons you pointed out for the racism but I wouldn't disagree that they aren't atleast SOMEWHAT racist just as much as you (a black person I presume) would be if you commentated.

I don't think they are boosting Pavlik or Calzaghe anymore than they boosted Zab when he was the undeafeted champ and they do give mayweather his props but they just dislike his defensive fighting for the fans sake. they know that the casual know-nothing fan(who makes up a big chunk of the revenue in this sport) will not enjoy mayweather's style of fighting and might be turned off to it so they just say that stuff in order to prevent future young boxers to emulate that style.

I mean, tyson, holyfield were beloved by the commentators in their primes. and klitschko the current WHITE hw champ is far from being boosted by the commentators as much as he should be for being the #1 hw in the world so, I think this type of thinking is utter BS.

So there racist because they don't understand boxing and just want to appeal to a wider audience?

Only idiots would state it as rascist.

Calling someone a coward because he pisses on his pants isn't rascist.

Duh!

That's common sense.

And only idiot fans can admire punks and undignified champs.

Duh!

Another common sense.

Common sense...you suck at it.

you really are the biggest fool on this site. it has nothing whatsoever to do with skin colour. if they was racist surely they would be racist towards every black and asian fighter out there not just your beloved judah who is **** and never done anything and floyd. they critisice floyd because he is good at creating a good hype for his fights which makes people pay $50 to watch yet he doesnt live up to it in many peoples eyes. yes hes skilled but he is too much of a gob****e and pisses everyone off.

They are racist towards every black fighter. You need to watch more boxing before you step up to me again.

Including Shane Mosley?

Haha step up to me. Silly boy.

[The Hammer]

Lennox Lewis and Manny Steward are white supremacists. I've heard they regularly attend KKK meetings.

[Mizzou]

Exactly. They said the DLH fight was boring when it was a good close fight. Cory V Taylor they were immensley disrepestful towards both fighters. Who were in a technical fight. Zab gets the worst criticism though.

HBO should be fired.

DLH Mayweather was a boring fight. Don't get me started on Taylor-Spinks, which consisted of Spinks punching Taylor's gloves with Taylor not throwing anything. Zab Judah is a washed up headcase.

Including Shane Mosley?

Haha step up to me. Silly boy.

Whose a lil *****. Getting man handled by Jin? I have no repsect for him. Plus hes not ya average black fighter hes boring.

You and your racist views.

The sad thing is P4PKING_2008 isn't black, he just really really wants to be.

America seems obsessed with racism.

Give it a rest...

biologically we are all almost identical.

Biological differences among races do not exist, WU research shows
By Tony Fitzpatrick

Race doesn't matter.

In fact, it doesn't even exist in humans.

While that may sound like the idealistic decree of a minister or rabbi, it's actually the conclusion of an evolutionary and population biologist at Washington University.

Alan R. Templeton, Ph.D., professor of biology in Arts and Sciences, has analyzed DNA from global human populations that reveal the patterns of human evolution over the past one million years. He shows that while there is plenty of genetic variation in humans, most of the variation is individual variation. While between-population variation exists, it is either too small, which is a quantitative variation, or it is not the right type of qualitative variation -- it does not mark historical sublineages of humanity.

Using the latest molecular biology techniques, Templeton has analyzed millions of genetic sequences found in three distinct types of human DNA and concludes that, in the scientific sense, there is no such thing as race.

"Race is a real cultural, political and economic concept in society, but it is not a biological concept, and that unfortunately is what many people wrongfully consider to be the essence of race in humans -- genetic differences," Templeton said. "Evolutionary history is the key to understanding race, and new molecular biology techniques offer so much on recent evolutionary history. I wanted to bring some objectivity to the topic. This very objective analysis shows the outcome is not even a close call: There's nothing even like a really distinct subdivision of humanity."

Templeton used the same strategy to try to identify race in human populations that evolutionary and population biologists use for non-human species, from salamanders to chimpanzees. He treated human populations as if they were non-human populations.

"I'm not saying these results don't recognize genetic differences among human populations," he cautioned. "There are differences, but they don't define historical lineages that have persisted for a long time."

Templeton's paper, "Human Races: A Genetic and Evolutionary Perspective," is published in the fall 1998 issue of the American Anthropologist, an issue almost exclusively devoted to race. The new editor-in-chief of the American Anthropologist is Robert W. Sussman, Ph.D., professor of anthropology in Arts and Sciences.

"The folk concept of race in America is so ingrained as being biologically based and scientific that it is difficult to make people see otherwise," said Sussman, a biological anthropologist. "We live on the one-drop racial division --if you have one drop of black or Native American blood, you are considered black or Native American, but that doesn't cover one's physical characteristics.

"Templeton's paper," Sussman continued, "shows that if we were forced to divide people into groups using biological traits, we'd be in real trouble. Simple divisions are next to impossible to make scientifically, yet we have developed simplistic ways of dividing people socially."

Single lineage
Templeton analyzed genetic data from mitochondrial DNA, a form inherited only from the maternal side; Y chromosome DNA, paternally inherited DNA; and nuclear DNA, inherited from both sexes. His results showed that 85 percent of genetic variation in the human DNA was due to individual variation. A mere 15 percent could be traced to what could be interpreted as "racial" differences.

"The 15 percent is well below the threshold that is used to recognize race in other species," Templeton said. "In many other large mammalian species, we see rates of differentiation two or three times that of humans before the lineages are even recognized as races. Humans are one of the most genetically ****genous species we know of. There's lots of genetic variation in humanity, but it's basically at the individual level. The between-population variation is very, very minor."

Among Templeton's conclusions: There is more genetic similarity between Europeans and sub-Saharan Africans and between Europeans and Melanesians, inhabitants of islands northeast of Australia, than there is between Africans and Melanesians. Yet, sub-Saharan Africans and Melanesians share dark skin, hair texture and cranial-facial features, traits commonly used to classify people into races. According to Templeton, this example shows that "racial traits" are grossly incompatible with overall genetic differences between human populations.

"The pattern of overall genetic differences instead tells us that genetic lineages rapidly spread out to all of humanity, indicating that human populations have always had a degree of genetic contact with one another, and thus historically don't show any distinct evolutionary lineages within humanity," Templeton said. "Rather, all of humanity is a single long-term evolutionary lineage."

It’s fair to say that Floyd has made some valid points. It is now that that HBO has a biased opinion on some fighters. They can be anything but neutral in many fights.
I’m sure they would want an Anglo Saxon fighter to rule boxer for the fact that many Caucasian viewers are quickly drifting to the white dominated UFC. I don’t think anyone can deny that.

I also heard someone say in here that HBO was fair to Mike Tyson.
Any highlight they show of him now it’s "Ohhhh Tyson hits the floor"
They bash Mike any chance they get.
I also sincerely believe Manny Steward has some sort of inferiority complex.

[rambov]

I think that HBO has made Jim Lamp, Emanuel and slowly Lennox sign their life away. ****ing Merchant sucks the **** of The Klitchko Bros so he is long gone.
I think they really don't have a choice in what they say. Look at Emanuel, he is such an uncle tom that I sometimes want to jump into the TV and slap him.

Sometimes I hear conflict when they're commentating. Max, Roy, sometimes George, and sometimes Lennox may go against the grain but I think that Jim, Larry and that emanuel are all robots
