    Look up to Al Sharpton??? lol This is coming from a guy who clicked "black" on the Left Hook Tua thread on race knowing you have told me in the past you were Caucasian on another board.

        Excuse me for a sec, I have to find a small spot to run too so I can laugh hysterically at this above post. Probably written by someone who has never experienced a racist event in their lives.

        The part that got me is his comment about "too little".....fking hilarious!
        I guess youngster doesn't know much about the country he lives in....its a common trait in the American public to be oblivious to history. So there's little to no racism anymore a? I guess these things seem fair and equal to you?

        1.)Has there ever been a Black President in the U.S.?
        2.)Why are 95% of the major corporations in the country controlled by white males?
        3.)Why is it that practically every sports franchise(Football, Basketball, and Baseball) is owned by white men
        4.) Why is it that black people always scream racism? Think about that one deeply, if you can.
        5.) Why is it that idiotic morons like Don Imus can still sling their racist mud without penalty? Yeah he was fired, but as we all know he's been re-hired by another money-grubbing corporation looking to exploit his popularity.

        6.) Why are we still dealing with blatantly racists practices by white prosecutors in our court systems as it relates to black young men(Example...The Jena 6 case)...The entire case drips with racism!!!!

        7.) Why are white female newscasters from the Golf Channel ...talking about nooses when referring to Tiger Woods.....I know you all heard about that? This ***** unconsciously showed here true colors.......referring to any other player on the tour would she have used the example of a ****ing "noose" to make her point? Hell no!

        I think I've made my point.......racism is still very much alive and well. Its just a different style of racism, if you will. Yes, the day of stringing black people to trees, not allowing them to vote, and raping their women are truly over but the pyschologicval damage done to black people through their terrifying experience in this country is still prevalent today, otherwise Winky and Floyd wouldn't be voicing these concerns.

        Those who believe it no longer exists are usually the perpetrators of it.

          I am white Sharpton lover,and if I clicked black it was accidental.l Unlike you, I can own up when I am wrong or make a mistake. Funny thing is, you picked out a mistake I made instead of trying to answer the post where I dogged your weak reply. Hmmmm, wonder why?

            When Oscar De La Hoya Fights, YOU do not GET THE FEELING THAT THEY WANT TO SEE Oscar De La Hoya LOSE...

            When Kelly Pavlik Fights, YOU do not GET THE FEELING THAT THEY WANT TO SEE Kelly Pavlik LOSE...

            and more recently When Miguel Cotto Fights, YOU do not GET THE FEELING THAT THEY WANT TO SEE Miguel Cotto LOSE...

            and the most obvious in the Mayweather-Hatton Fight,
            YOU do not GET THE FEELING THAT THEY WANT TO SEE Hatton LOSE...

            But you did get the Feeking that they wanted Mayweather to LOSE...



            another example:

            In the Jermaine Taylor fight against Kelly Pavlik
            all you heard throughout the Fight was, What Jermaine Taylor was going to do wrong, and what he is doing wrong, and vice vesa What Kelly Pavlik was going to do right and what he was doing right....

            and Once Again YOU do not GET THE FEELING THAT THEY WANT TO SEE Kelly Pavlik LOSE...





            Why Does The Perception exist with these fighters..??


            Thats the Problem Mayweather Has with them...

            IT SEEMS LIKE THEY WANT TO SEE HIM and certain fighters LOSE...

            AND IF YOU ARE A FAIR MINDED COMMENTATOR THAT PERCEPTION SHOULD NOT EXIST...

            BUT WITH THE HBO CREW IT DOES...

            YOU GET THE FEELING THAT THEY WANT TO SEE MAYWEATHERand certain fighters LOSE...


            They are Paid to be FAIR COMMENTATOR'S, not AVID FANS.... SO any bias they have against certain fighters should be set aside as soon as they start calling the fight
            *BUMP*

              1.)Has there ever been a Black President in the U.S.?
              Ask me again in November.

              2.)Why are 95% of the major corporations in the country controlled by white males?
              Because women are ******?

              3.)Why is it that practically every sports franchise(Football, Basketball, and Baseball) is owned by white men
              Because women don't like sports?

              4.) Why is it that black people always scream racism? Think about that one deeply, if you can.
              It could be argued that by screaming racism you escape blame and responsibility for your own situation. Not all black people scream racism either. Ever heard Oprah saying "Is it cos I is black?"

              5.) Why is it that idiotic morons like Don Imus can still sling their racist mud without penalty? Yeah he was fired, but as we all know he's been re-hired by another money-grubbing corporation looking to exploit his popularity.
              Being fired is a penalty. Are you ****ing ******?

              6.) Why are we still dealing with blatantly racists practices by white prosecutors in our court systems as it relates to black young men(Example...The Jena 6 case)...The entire case drips with racism!!!!
              What about the blatant racism experienced by the Duke University Lacrosse team?

              7.) Why are white female newscasters from the Golf Channel ...talking about nooses when referring to Tiger Woods.....I know you all heard about that? This ***** unconsciously showed here true colors.......referring to any other player on the tour would she have used the example of a ****ing "noose" to make her point? Hell no!
              Do you have a source or did you just think it?

                I just think it is a bias with styles. Merchant though is known to rant off about this courage thing that insults fighters like Floyd. He wants Floyd to break down fighters. He fails to realize Floyd rose up in weight, and isn't going to ko everyone. He wants guys to go 12 hard rounds forgetting defense. He wants to see the aggressive style all the time. Merchant has lost his appreciation of the boxer. Good post though.


                With Merchant it's definitely about styles. I truly don't believe Merchant is a racist because he'll hate on ANY fighter he doesn't like and that includes the white ones like the Klitschko's. I heard him basically call Vitaly a cowards after the Bryd fight. Stewart is just an egotistical ******* who I think gets jealous of successful fighters he didn't train. He did it to both Jones and Hopkins. I cant speak well of lampley who is one of the worst blow by blow announcers I've ever seen. He'll call punches that don't land and say nothing about others that do land. He admitted to being biased towards Oscar Delahoya so Mayweather wasn't lying about him in that respect at least. That's probably why he criticized him the most.

                  The sad thing is, he is 36 and he still thinks like he is 16.

                  Still living the life of blaming everyone for everything. What ever happened to just dealing with the cards you were dealt and making the best of it?


                  I have my own set of questions to ask, but its not even worth it. The guy is a douche no matter what the color.
