Comments Thread For: Baumgardner Rejects Mayer Rematch, Wants Choi For Undisputed

[SteveM]

They are not anti White they are anti racism (and maybe a little anti boxing politics). They merely pointed out that their opponents are on a pedestal and get the wealth and accolades that they do only because of the color of their skin. They aimed to beat opponents that they felt they were better than. They achieved their goals.

Know the difference between anti White and anti racism.....and understand that you are most likely a racist yourself Tiburron.

Did they point this out? I don't remember hearing them saying that?
Who is on a pedestal? Marshall? Don't think so. Mayer? Maybe she was on a small pedestal (she isn't anymore) but she had looked good in a few fights now and she got a little bit of a promotional push from T.R - that's what promoters supposed to do.

If they did say that this would be strange when you consider that some of the wealthiest boxers in the current generation are black. I'm pretty sure Crawford, Spence, Wilder, Joshua, Tank, are all in the top 10 of boxing earners at the moment. Claressa won't have earnt so much because she hasn't fought in any big fights - it takes a good opponent to make a great event. For Baumgardner she had only just arrived prior to this fight - how could she expect to have made the same money as Taylor or Serrano? Hopefully Shields made very good money this weekend and if Alicia was the B side this weekend, she won't be going forward.

"Bum" won but it was close. She has to work on her stamina. Not a good look getting that tired in 2 minute rounds while smiling/taunting.

Baumgardner will beat Choi. Alot of good fights out there for her. Wouldn't mind seeing her face Hamadouche either.

Maybe Mayer can win a couple fights get into mandatory position and they can run it back.
