    But by the same token if Joe Calzaghe would of said what Hopkins said.

        I wasn't commenting on the historical origins of the "sport". We are commenting on Dana White's UFC, which is the leading company in that market space and how the UFC is marketed and to what demographic.

        I've seen firsthand marketing plans for different venues that hosted MMA events. I'm not race baiting or making an issue of race. I am stating what I believe to be the case and in this instance I agree with Floyd.

            Nope,
            cuz he said the game is dominated by hispanics and blacks,nobody else.
            The game is dominated by euros and asians also,his coment is really afrocentric since black fighters doesn't really rule ****.

            How Hopkins rules 175 bein 1-1 in that division??Lost twice to Taylor before that campain. And number 3 P4P?? Americans fighters are overated.

              Do people really think Mayweather is serious? Really?

              He's trying to sell a fight. He's an idiot, but he's trying to sell a fight. His comments don't make any sense whatsoever, he knows that and doesn't care, its his way of selling this fight. It's ******, but that's what he does. Look at the DLH fight - what kind of idiot mocks the Mexican boxing tradition? It doesn't make any sense and it's just done to piss people off so they'll be interested in his fight he needs to sell.

              Just listen to him, he intentionally talks like an idiot, I bet in private he sounds 1000% smarter/normal.

                What bothers me it not really the comments cause come one its Floyd
                he has shown his ****** ignorance before. This isnt the first nor will it be the last time.

                To me someone with all that money and still not educated. He needs to hire a speech coach and a life coach. ****** is out. Its time for the sophisticated black man to walk around proud. ***** made it cool to wear suits and be corporate. One thing is selling fights another thing is plain ******ity.
                Floyd always gets confused.

                    Hopkins can sell a fight as the bad guy. Floyd is just a misguided, out of touch fool. I am ignoring his fights until he fights a real challenge.

                      People are straight trippin. Just like when B-Hop said he'd never lose to a white boy, some got offended by that. Just let it go, Mayweather has been known to say ****** things, I love the fact that he took a crack at UFC in general.
