Malignaggi said nothing controversial. Bring him back

[LacedUp]

What he said was not only ignorant, it was wrong. White man not being offended by ignorant **** another white man said, color me....surprised. That's why I stopped posting here too many bigots, morons and ignoramuses for me to handle daily.

Please elaborate dear wise man.

What offended you?

That's not true at all. Alan Minter made the same comments before figuring Marvin Hagler. If didn't affect his career at all. Kovalev called a black person a monkey and used the N word and it didn't even make a dent in the news. Didn't hurt his career either.


Malignaggi went as far to say racism and oppression against black people never existed in this century. He also tried to downplay the deaths of George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery. It wasn't just his comments about African American fighters.


But the thread starter is a racist himself so it's not shocking that he didn't have a problem with the comments. Funny how he was offended earlier when someone questioned the customs of Saudi Arabia. Some people like to pick and choose what's offensive based on how it affects them.

Alan Minter lol I’m taking about these days. You know I’m right too.

anyway, race should be kept out of boxing. The great thing about boxing is it’s a truly universal sport, great fighters from everywhere.

Remember those idiots on Fox interviewing Fury before the wilder rematch, trying to make it into a black and white thing. He shut them down immediately. It’s one thing fighters making silly comments like Haney, but imagine the broadcasting team trying to stir the pot, instigating that rubbish.

What Paulie said was a disgrace. With white supremacy running rampant in this country, what happened at the Capitol, and the attacks on Asian Americans, Paulie never should have said something like that.

attacks on asian Americans, mostly committed by African Americans

white supremacy though lol.

Hold on, people are flocking to UFC because Paulie got fired?

So all African Americans are criminals and should be put down?

So all African Americans are criminals and should be put down?

No

why would you think I meant that?

I was referring to somebody connecting white supremacy to Asian Americans being attacked when it’s mostly African Americans attacking them statistically, So how is that linked to White supremacy exactly?

your mind is poisoned if you think someone is attacking all black people and calling them criminals because they corrected somebody.

Malignaggi is the best commentator in the business. He did however work for a private company and made a comment that they didn’t like. They gave him the chance to apologise. He didn’t. He represents their brand and they have a right to do this.

If my manager comes up to me and says that he found a public comment I made offensive, I’m apologising if he asks me to. Regardless of what I think.

life innit

There is no need to get defensive, nor am I calling you a racist. Just like my opinion of Israeli *********** situation is if left alone two sides will eventually settle out whose the winner. As for Paulie I don't think it matters much, as for white supremacy the fact that neither side can talk about it in a civil discussion means it'll be an issue. Me personally it doesn't matter if it's there its just one of many obstacles, if its not then the world will move as it does.

You got to be a special kind of softie to be offended by what he said.

It’s more complicated than that. Showtime have a wide demographic of subscribers and they don’t want a live wire saying things that may turn people off. Business innit
