Comments Thread For: Paulie Malignaggi: 'Idiocracy' That Has Rewarded Ryan Garcia Will Be Revealed

[LAchargers373]

depends what you call a big fight. This fight will probably be top 3-5 grossing $ fight of 2024. That to me is a big fight, regardless of titles or ranking.

it WILL NOT be a top 3-5 grossing fight stop smoking meth lol. Fury/usyk bout to happen AJ/Ngannou already happened canelo/mungia in 4 weeks bivol/beterbiev soon after that. That’s 4
fights in the first 6 months bigger than this. What I will say is if princess ry can have a competitive exciting fight or somehow pull the upset he can regain what he lost. But I don’t know if he can, in fact I highly doubt it but we shall see

Ancestry can be traced to the 1870s census. If someone can prove through their dna that they belong to the FBA ethnicity and or show their ancestry dated to that census then you have two ways to prove there. There has been an ethno-genesis concerning FBA people where their dna can show them grouped to peopesncomingniutnof Georgia, North Carolina, ******ia. Because of their mixing of ancestry out of modern day countries from northwest Africa down to Southern Africa, indigenous American ancestry, with ancestry also coming from Scotland, wales, England, Ireland, and Norway/Denmark due the mass sexual assault of their people they have a specific dna pattern that’s easily traceable to the southern usa that makes their dna different from anyone else in the world. So in terms of identifying who would get the “40 acres and a mule” that was promised them by Lincoln, I think that’s an easy solution. The fact that they are the one group that has been denied reparations speaks volumes on just why they should get it. If other peoples want to make their case in various parts of the world, then they should do that, but that’s not really an American concern. America has one group that it’s denied owed compensation all the way through actions such as redlining by banks that have denied loans for home and business purchases, and that is an act the American courts have told banks they ca not do to FBA people ao this isn’t exactly ancient history. America got comfortable with a permanent under class and actions such as redlining and over regulation of black owned businesses is the modern version of an old problem. I support justice and the righting of wrongs as well as done for my people, I cannot not support the FBAs when my people have been through a very similar experience but in a foreign land

Even though we disagree, I still like ya fellow vet!

You can’t foooking count saudis fights lol. That’s not fair. Dude just handing out $. But if you do want to include them, just ppv buys would be fair. Bet by end of yr, Haney-garcias is a top 3-5 pick in ppv buys. And if you count only domestic fights, bet it’d be top 3-5 overall grossing.

Lol it will not be a top 3-5 ppv bro. Maybe if the tank fight didn’t happen or he didn’t quit when he could’ve fought on it could’ve been but people really are disconnected in the fact no one cares to watch this guy steal their money again. Then brag about it after. Like I said if he shows heart or somehow beats haney he can get some support back but his Instagram followers aren’t buying 70$ PPVs lmao. That was people like me who believed in him as fighter. Not many of those around anymore

I could just as easily say that anyone who thinks that reparations ARE owed, has a pretty significant disconnect from reality. Money is not infinite. What you give to one, must be taken from another. And how exactly do you determine who money should be taken from, and to whom it should be given? Do mixed race people only get half, or maybe 25%, depending on their ancestry.com results? Are white people with no traceable link to slavery exempt from having resources taken from them? There were irish, nordic, and middle eastern ****** also, what reparations do they get? Everyone can agree that slavery was abhorrent. And the fact that it still goes on to this day in Africa, the Middle East. and other places is disgusting. But the notion that 200+ years later somehow there are still checks to be written, well I wouldnt hold your breath......

Your argument has no weight. Where does all of the military aid billions sent to Israel and Ukraine come from? Everyone wronged in America has been recompensed. Except Black Americans.

The demand for Reparations is only going to grow stronger, whether people like you like it or not. Your Middle America MAGA rationale is beyond ******.

[Smash]

shoulda put that iraq & afghan cash towards reparations instead of taking and holding dusty villages in the middle of nowhere possibly, whos idea was that anyway

Garcia's fanbase is teen girls. I'm not sure he's even popular among Mexican Americans.

He is.

I think your post isn’t entirely accurate. I think they do, which is why pbc has taken to Juneteenth fight cards in cities with heavy FBA percentages such as Baltimore, Houston, Brooklyn, etc. I suspect you are talking about showing up in the arena only as well. It appears fights such as Crawford v Spence did very well on PPV. As have several of Spence’s and Davis’ fights as have their fights in their hometowns. So really not sure why you would say that. But let’s say for arguments sake we are living in a parallel universe where FBA people don’t watch boxing..FBA folks have stars in boxing, basketball, football, track and field, tennis, gymnastics, and feature heavily in the medal count for the USA. Other groups, especially other so called ethnic minority groups in the usa do not. Those groups that do not tend to support their one or two when they come around. FBA people have scores of not hundreds that look like them and or share the same ancestry. As with the old adage, “the less the have the more it’s worth….”

Many of the fans that go to FAB fights are Whites or from other ethnic groups that have a fighter on the card. No one but a few FABs want to watch boring runners-huggers, being cowards in the ring. Glad we have Hispanics and now even Eastern Europeans and Asians, otherwise boxing would be dead by having all these FABs just hugging and crying racism. FABs have stars in the sports you mention, but only a few in gymnastics and tennis, guess what Latinos have stars in boxing and other sports too, so do Asians maybe not as athletic as FABs but guess what Latinos have more brands in boxing and other sports that generate money ( Reyes gloves, Seyer, Tecate, Corona, Tequila Cuervo, many restaurants etc ) and many other brands that FABs dont have, and the WBC, WBA, wtc are in Latin countries. Guess what Asians besides being great at martial arts which they created (FABs didnt create any sport) and guess what FABs may run faster than Asians but guess who creates cars, computers, trains, etc. Oh, and dont play the race card. And FABs even though being a race and not an ethnicity, double croos themselves all the time. Oh I forgot the Arabs, have no boxers but guess what, fights are made in Saudi Arabia and not Africa or Harlem why'¡¡¡???? Thay have the resources, maybe not so good at basketball but they will hire FABs to play for them. Still wanna play the race card¡?? You started it, dont cry now.

[budfr]

FBA? What's that?

Foundational Black Americans. A new term to make them feel empowered and play the victim card.
