      Well listen, it is obviously true that there are some idiots on here who do have a racial agenda. The problem is, your post said that black Mayweather fans hate Duran because he is Latino.

      Generalizations tend to piss people off, because they unfairly put people in a category that they do not belong.

      By the way, you do seem to have a pretty healthy dislike for Mayweather, which I imagine does get you pretty deep into some arguments with the Floyd fans. Back when I was a Mayweather nuthugger, I do remember you being one of the guys who argued back the hardest.

        Its easy to see he was trying to create what happened with the thread, best thing to do is not even respond at all.

            Neither side is free of guilt.

            I was willing to accept my role of the race battle I got pulled into with Flawless a few weeks ago. I'm just as much to blame as him, because we both engaged in it, regardless of how it started. Both of us did our part to escalate it.

            Everyone should just shut the **** up, discuss the positives and the negatives of the sport (mostly the positives) and ignore what other people's preferences are and stop being ****s about other people's favorite fighters.

              Envy: may be defined as an emotion that "occurs when a person lacks another’s superior quality, achievement, or possession and either desires it or wishes that the other lacked it."[1] It can also derive from a sense of low self-esteem

                I don't like Mayweather. I think he could have been more then he is but didn't prove it yet still wants people to recognize him as if he did.
                Most Mayweather fan boys swear he could beat anyone with both arms tied behind his back.. I agree that he was a great lightweight but that about it. NOTHING else.

                The biggest difference between me and them is.. I have favorite fighters of all colors.
                When I was asked for a nickname for boxing.. I chose Maravilla (Marvelous in Spanish)
                because Hagler is one of my favorites of all time. If I was really like them I would be pulling for Margarito instead of Mosley in their fight and I'm not.

                Maybe I went too far generalizing all of them but it seems like the majority of Mayweather fans on the forum think this way and act that way too.
                Legit Mayweather fans on this forum are a minority.

                  It works both ways

                  Some people on here only like White Fighters
                  Some people on here only like Black Fighters
                  Some people only like Latino Fighters etc etc

                  This forum is getting more and more race orientated with each passing month and at times the threads about Calzaghe and Mayweather get tiresome

                    Agreed. I think as the demographic of posters has gotten younger the quality of the lounge has decreased.. I miss the days when Piggu and Dynamite Dye where the youngest posters in the lounge.

                      They turned into Hatton fans the night before the Malignaggi fight. What are the odds?
