Watching Oscar vs Whitaker made me realize something

[Benncollinsaad]

And that is this-Mexican or other non-black fighters are not as popular on HBO as black fighters. Listen to them! Lampley saying how the crowd reacts to everything Oscar does even when he's missing. He outlands Whitaker in every round and still everyone goes on about how clever Whitaker is and bla bla. Every time Whitaker DOES land, they go wild. Oscar only gets approval when he lands a flurry.

*** American commentators and *** HBO!

LOL, watch Floyd Mayweather on HBO then say that

Against Oscar they were saying that Oscar was doing great when he was hitting Floyds gloves and getting countered silly with right hands

I think its the other way around

White Americans can't ever be objective when it comes to black vs non-black. They'll always side with the black man. It's the white man's guilt. I despise that! They are such cowards.

Yeah, they were reminiscing those wet dreams pretty hard. I recall one of them saying, as Sweet Pea was evading a flurry, "..and to think what Pernell was like in his prime..." or something along those lines. To be honest, I hardly paid attention to the commentators. I was soo into that fight...enjoyed it!

But Cotto isn't Mexican. And that's because he is really good. And nobody likes Floyd anyway!

And watch that part where Whitaker wrestles DLH to the ground and then retreats and raises his hands...wtf was that??!! And nobody says anything. But had Oscar done that...the problem is that Oscar wasn't yet a mega celebrity. But even when he was, HBO was still supporting Trinidad and Mosley!

Lampley tries to blame it on the "southpaw vs conventional fighter" thing!

Larry Merchant definitely doesn't, Roy always respected Floyd and called him the "Complete Fighter" on many occasions

Roy was the most knowledgeable commentator IMO

Yeah, right. He keeps sucking Pernell's **** too throuout the fight. "Ooh, what a body punch!" In the meanwhile Oscar has landed two punches.
