Reverse Racism In Boxing

[poontango]

white boy aint racist.. I got white friends and i call em white boy..Nothing to it

A black dude I didnt know calling me "white boy" would sure as hell feel racist. Its a loaded term.
It just seems like some black posters just dont like the fighter because he's white.

well those are idiots..they come in all colors

Er.. Yeah you do..

Besides, if you want to look at racism, there are several members who have blatently called Black Boxers other Black members awful racial terms "Monkeys" or "P@K1's"

They have not been banned, if anything, they've been condoned. So maybe you should address that too

I haven't seen anyone call people **** or monkeys on this website. I've seen posters who make excuses on why their fighter lost most likely because of the color of that fighters skin since people shouldn't make excuses for why a fighter loses.

Should have, could have but didn't.

I've been reading a lot of responses from what appears to sound like black posters ( i cant know 100%) who are more than happy to use words like "whiteboy" "white hype" etc...and condone the ridicule of white or european and even latin fighters to an extent, yet they become very irritable the minute anyone fires back about black hype fighters.
Look at how Popkins got a pass for his racism against Calzaghe. Imagine if Calzaghe said: "I would never let an ignorant, buck tooth nigg er like you beat me"...**** man, Calzaghe would probably be forced to live in exile after a remark like that yet Popkins gets a slap on the wrist.
So why double standard? Why are you comfortable mocking the Klitschkos or Calzaghe for being white champions and yet you coil in horror when some one has the audacity of throwing it right back in your face.
There is some racist white *******s out there no doubt, but some of you black posters are no better.
And please have your argument be better than the "reparations" bull****...I'd rather you just admit you're a racist and be open about it then cowardly hide behind that excuse.

I'm a whiteboy and I found nothing offensive about Hopkins' comments directed at Calzaghe.

It's promotion. Ali called Frazier an "Uncle Tom", Paret called Griffith a "Faggot", Barrera had some harsh things to say about Morales' Indian blood and called him a "****** Indian".

This isn't the sport for you if name calling is offensive.

Racism is racism, I dont know what the **** reverse racism is?

You gotta admit though, Kiltschko is BORING as **** lol, that's a legit reason.

[AKATheMack]

Anyone who is offended by racist terms is a girl black, white, brown, red or yellow. I wear it proudly Im down with being The Whiteboy and Im sure gonna reply to "whats up whiteboy" with " Not **** blackboy"

I think he is still making the point that if someone said something like
"I'll never lose to a black boy" people would cry racism and jesse jackson would show up. And they probably would be condemned from this sport.

Probably because of the hundreds of years of slavery and racism? IDK...

2 wrongs don't make a right. And if that is your logic, you blacks will never make it.

If you disrespect me I'm going to disrespect you. Call me a cracker, ill call you a ******. Get violent with me, ill get violet with you.

Its quite simple really.

If you think because your ancestors were my ancestors bitches that you have some sort of "right" to be rude and disrespectful when I had nothing to do with that, think again. I don't feel sorry for you and I'm not responsible for you life woes. This doesn't apply to all black people obviously, just the many that need to grow the **** up and stop using excuses for everyone of your mistakes. Everyone is sick of it and it will get you no where.

Members such as 2Tough have called Amir khan one.

As for the Rivalry between Phillipine, Peurto Ricans and Mexicans. I'm not even going to go there lol. That's just as bad.
