That's some BS from Floyd. Whites clearly have dominated at least heavyweight and cruiser divisions (more so the heavyweights) and not all of the UFC champions aren't white: GSP - white, Machida - Japanese/Brazilian, Anderson Silva - Black, BJ Penn - don't know what this guy is but he's not white, Brock Lesnar - whiteComment

Mayweather Jr. does it again. Not even thinking that such statements ruins his fan base, that white MMA fans may also be current and past boxing fans who will all the more not patronize his fights.

Pretty much, And also take into account the time period when the UFC was created, and match it with what White boxers were doing at the time and you see the correlation. People up here acting as if the fact that there wasn't a White Heavyweight champion for damn near 40yrs can't help to create the environment to spawn the UFC's popularity in the USA. Floyd didn't tell a lie. If you've been told throughout your life that you're superior in every shape, form, or fashion, especially, over one particular group, by way of education, media, and upbringing yet, for yrs that reality is checked in the most elemental expression of masculinity (fighting/boxing) then that can be a little unsettling to your self image. Enter the UFC/MMA, a sport that requires you to learn various disciplines of marital arts, all with costly instruction expenses (200 monthly rate) and with no historical footing within either the Black or Mexican Community's then problem solved. I'm glad Floyd said this. Hell, Floyd is the most hated fighter on this website and Shane is one of the most ignored. They say,'you should always be humble'. However, when your a Black fighter humble means meek and apologetic. Still doesn't work>>Shane Mosely. Shane been genuinely smiling for the camera for damn near 20yrs and minute he stopped smiling they called him crazy. The Mayweathers name his been represented within the sport of boxing for going on 5 decades and have experienced rascism for longer. If you think Floyd doesn't know what he speaks of either, you are a fool or have an agenda. Either way, your favorite fighter still can't shut Floyd's mouth in a ring and his words holds more weight than yours.floyd is right. there are few white americans who do well in boxing, hense white americans turn to mma. ppl can namedrop the klits, calzaghe etc all they want. how many americans root for a eastern european guy? not many, they dont want to watch those guys. im not being racist its just the truth. hell, nobody wants to watch the klits. he is also right mma isnt on his (or any other top boxers) level, although the fight revenue isnt the reason.Comment
