Hopkins got beat by a white boy....will lightning strike twice? LOL

Ok stop because you're an idiot. Racism in any form is wrong regardless of who you think has the right to *****. I have American Indian heritage (albeit small) so before you say this race or that has any right to complain natives got f'ed more than anyone.

I never said I approved of Hopkins comment. I think we can agree that it was inappropriate. However, let's not pretend that racist comments are all equal. Can you seriously say that the n'word and honkey have the same effect? I hope not.

What the hell do Native American's have to do with this?

The irony is if a white guy said he'd never lose to a black boy, EVERYONE would be on his case by calling him a racist.

It's happened before. Minter-Hagler

Well, actually they are, and to say that they are not is already showing a type of bias.

Well you're trying to draw the lines between black and white I was pointing out there are groups of people that have had it worse than either. Also when the n'word is used in most rap songs and young black americans grow up thinking its use it appropriate I think that's more of a problem than anything Hop said.

This is a boxing forum, end this ****** race debate

There's no need to make it a pissing contest. Wrong is wrong. It doesn't mean ignore something just because there is something worse out there. It you were being mistreated at your workplace and complained it would be like me to telling you to shut up because the workers out in Sierra Leone have it much worse.

*Yawn* dude you're boring me I'm bored with this race debate I'm going to another thread to discuss boxing you do what you want man cause I dont care.

I think Hopkins will win this one. I suspect that Pavlik's power has been wildly overrated and will not carry up to 170 that well, he certainly won't be the hardest puncher Hopkins has faced. That leaves Pavlik with just his workrate, but I think his style is too predictable for him to avoid being shut down by Hopkins. Hopkins gets the upset.
