LMAO. like Babe Ruth, Brett Favre, Jon Daly, and all the other "asshxle" White athletes who've always had a big fanbase?

You are right though, he would be hated by Black folks if he was White, but White folks would somehow overlook his asshxlish behavior like they do for lots of White athletes who were drunks or woman beaters or drug addicts or just good old fashioned idiots.

He wouldn't be the biggest athlete of all-time, though.

Boxing would be more popular if it had a White American who was dominating it, however.

Caleb Plant's not really dominant enough to get White people to care about boxing. Plus, he seems to feel more of a connection to the Black community than the White one in a lot of ways.

I do get sick of the Mayweather groupies and their constant need for Floyd to be constantly worshiped without any criticism, whatsoever.

That shxt gets annoying.

He was an all-time great defensive fighter, the best of his generation, who is probably solidly a top 20 or so fighter of all-time, Great he retired with a perfect record. Some would argue that shouldn't be the case. and definitely wouldn't be the case in a better era in boxing where everybody fought everybody.

Let him go and fight his exhibitions with Japanese midgets, please.

Ohhhh puhhhleeeaseee!
your everyday American doesn’t wake up each morning with the immediate thought of “how do I screw over the black man today.” They live their lives and give two s h I s for anyone else outside their immediate circles. The perpetual victimhood mentality is tiresome, lazy as hell and quite frankly boring. Those fixated on race either have failed in their own lives and wish to blame others, are academia with no real world life experience or real job or are the very racist too fixated to correct the overwhelming issues within their own communities. The schtick is up however as more and more Americans are waking up to the race hustle game.

What the hell are you talking about?

Dude, the only one "fixated" on race is YOU.

I said if Floyd was White he would be popular with Whites, but not popular with Blacks. That's it.

Plenty of White athletes have been pricks and popular.

You took it wayyyy somewhere else.

That’s not correct either. He’s one of the most wealthy black men on the planet, is one of the most recognizable faces outside of boxing circles and is a success businessman. His own race didn’t make Floyd rich. It was a conglomerate of races that made Floyd wealthy many lifetimes over. I’m sorry but if Floyd were not popular with “whites” as you call it he’d be nowhere close to being as wealthy as he is. Those are just cold hard facts backed by visible data. Watch his matches and look at the makeup of those paying the highest price for ringside tickets.

George Foreman, another proud black man made his millions after boxing with his grills. This has NOTHING to do with the amount of melatonin within one’s skin. Part of it has to do with being just a straight a s s hole.

That's not true at all.

Jack Johnson was absolutely hated by White America, so much that when he won fights, they'd burn down whole Black communities, but he was rich as hell.

How'd he get rich?

White folks paid to watch him lose.

Same with Floyd.

Why don't you think "Pretty Boy Floyd" made any money?

He started making money once people started hating him and turned in to watch whatever challenger beat him.

Very simple.

And I believe the word is "melanin" not "melatonin"
