And yes Russia in in the far east not too far from China and I am sure there were many aisan people who migrated and mixed in with the Russian people many Russian have the same features and look spanish or Asian. Ia m surprised where I live it is predominatly Russian neighborhood and I see them speak Russain and I am very surprised because the often look Phillipino or Chinese....lefty
    I'm completely staying out of this entire discussion except to make one small point:
    People of eastern European descent often have Asian heritage somewhere due to a couple of things, one of which is the normal migration of peoples, the other was the raiding mongols and Tartars.

      Calzaghe would of been public enemy number infront of Margacheato, he would of been in every newspaper all over the world and you know it. You need to stop excusing it as selling the fight because what ever the motive it is wrong.


      Ali gets away with it because he said it to another black man, Mayweather and Hopkins get away with it because they are black. Stop with the hypocrisy. You are passing it off when you should not be.
      The reason is because it actually is different. What Hopkins said was ****** no doubt. People in general didn't take too much offense because there is not the same history of oppression. Sensitivities are different for people that are of different races/religions/ethnicity because of history. Let me make it clear that I am not saying this is right but it exist none the less. If a group of people have endured oppression or discrimination then sensitivity is a bit different for that group. Not too many people care if Hop said he would never lose to a white boy, but the the backlash might be different if he said I will never loose to a ***ish man. The jab hurts much more if it is said about a group of people that has been oppressed, is dealing with social injustices, or has at some point treated as a lower class. When saying a comment like that about a group that has faced some type of oppression it is implied that you are saying they are inferior. None the less it is ****** for anyone of any race to say some dumb **** like that.

        I'm not the one that called Mangler Clarence Thomas for disliking Floyd's racist comments, that'd be you, big guy.
        The point is you only oppose racism when it comes from one side which makes you a hypocrite, phony, and a racist yourself. If the real Jim Jeffries was black you would sig his quotes and make sure everybody knew what a racist he was. I don't see you sigging welter skelter or PBDS racist rants.Also, you don't like any black fighters so stop lying. You mention Ali and Tyson because they no longer fight lol. And yeah, I said what I meant and meant what I said. Did it hurt your feelings? I bet it did pu***:

          There is no difference Joe Calzaghe aint persecuted anybody and he should not have to walk on egg shells because of something his ancestors did.

          If Joe said it there would be no difference imo, however the punishment would be more severe because he is white.

            Unlike you who call blacks Clarence Thomas when they oppose racism.

            How on earth would I find racist posts of mine to sig?

            The rest, like most of your posts, is not worth responding to.



            What did you mean when you called Mangler Clarence Thomas?

              No one said that Joe did anything. I am trying to explain to why there is a difference. Its wrong no matter who says it but there is a difference. Like I said if Hop would have said something like that about a ***ish person then hes in the same boat as Joe saying it about a Black person. Just thought I would try to make you understand.

                Sorry, but I'm not here to teach the uneducated and ignorant. Ask your hero Glen Beck. By the way, it's ""are not" not "is not". Go back to school. You're starting to speak in broken English like the real Jim Jeffries did.

                  There is no difference!! Calzaghe is not responsible for what his ancestors did and just because their is a school of thought that black people are allowed to say things that are racist and borderline racist and get away with it because of what happened to their ancestor is BS.



                  I know why people support the theory though, because if you can feed the ideal then you can use it as leverage to avoid facing responsibility for your actions, whilst still having the audacity to point the finger when someone else does what you are guilty of.

                    Just another example of Floyd digging that hole a bit deeper in the face of the public, and he wonders why people don't care to spend PPV type money to see him fight anymore?

                      There is clearly a difference. The history of things is one thing but you have to understand many people people still have oppressing views. I think/hope the reason you don't see it is because you yourself are pure at heart and judge everyone as equals. That is great but the reality is that thats not how it is everywhere. People sill feel the effects of what history has made the present. Again the remark is wrong no matter who makes it but here is still a clear difference.
