Floyd Mayweather's exclusive 22 minute interview with ESPN (Video)

[RodBarker]

I mean, I aint saying black fighters are better than white fighters cause I think that's a load of bull****, IMO its just about the hard work you put in the gym and how hard you train (I am white by the way)... but if anything white fighters get less credit than fighters of other races, not saying they deserve more and getting racial... just saying from what I see they don't.

I don't wanna get racial though and be a hypocrite... but what Floyd said then was ******, he is my favorite fighter but he was being an idiot then just like he was being an idiot when talking about MMA.

I mean I just wanna get everything straight, everything else he said was spot on... nothing else he said pissed be off and all of the rest of the interview was fine to me... and I had loads of respect for what he said for Gatti, its just that one bit ruined the interview a little... being racial will get him nowhere, especially on television interviews.

Im white and black fighters are better than whites fighter in the majority of cases , its all about genetics and they are suited to boxing genetically better than white people , white people make better swimmers its no big deal we are not all equal some races have better attributes than others .

Calzaghe gets no respect... stop with the bull****, Floyd got racial... for no reason, he is my favorite fighter and yours too... but even if we're a fan we gotta admit when he makes a bull**** comment, there was no reason to get racial... at that one point of the interview... he was being a complete ****.

He didn't say Mexican, he said white... truth is nobody looks at race, nobody cares... if it was the case of him not being as big and popular due to his skin color then why do SRL, SRR, Ali, Luis, etc. get a **** load of credit, they are black... if he didn't get the recognition he deserved cause he was black then why would these guys have? He made a ****** comment, and that is that.

Not trying to get racial myself... but all I am saying is there was no need to say what he said.

Calzaghe gets no respect because he's British it isn't because he's White.

The truth is EVERYBODY looks at race. As long as different races exist people will.......

If Floyd doesn't get the respect he deserves because he is black then why did Ali, SRR, SRL, Luis, etc. get it? They are black all the same? We all know he made a bull**** comment, simple as that.

Apart from the bit about race...good interview.

What he said about that undermines himself as a character...it's not because of his skin colour that he's not popular...it's his attitude and charisma that lets him down.

As somebody else stated...look at Tiger Woods, Jordan, Ali, Eubank, Lewis and even Tyson who was by all accounts a nasty bastard.

****, name me a white boxer today who is more famous then he should be? except Hatton...
