Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopezs racist remarks may prevent the fights he seeks to create

[crimsonfalcon07]

I'm not gonna cry if Teo's nastiness prevents him from getting big fights and he fades back into obscurity. But it seems pretty artificial considering how racist many top boxers are, and how little that matters when there's money to be made. Ryan Garcia for instance... Devin Haney got plenty of fights despite his racist comments. It's absolutely rife in the sport and among the fans.

This new generation is so soft...

Just as soft as the old generation that didn't have the cojones to call the Jan 6 events a ********* attack. Soft & malleable brains all around.

To be clear, I was not defending Teo. My post was in response to the guy above who argued that it was racist for black fighters to wear sombreros (and similar). I do believe the entire world is obsessed with race and racism to the point that they cannot stomach the most minor criticism of any group. I do believe that racism will exist all the way up till the last two people on the planet are left, so I have no expectation that anything that anyone does or tries to impose will change the way people feel about each other. Human beings are hardwired to hate the differences in others.

Too much generalisation imo. Many people really aren't that obsessed or hateful.

The Ashli Babbitt part was pretty cool.

Some lines shouldn’t be crossed. Sending a basket of bananas and a watermelon to a black fighter is one of them.

While I respect your opinion; However, I must strongly disagree on how to teach him a lesson. You don’t reward bad behavior with good.

The best way of teaching this racist prick a lesson is through shunning and ostracizing him; Like the brothers are doing. As he continues to crawl on all fours begging them for a fight.

I’m cool with it. Standing on morals is always respectable to me. So disappointed in teo.

this whole time the libs have been screaming that only white people can be racist. teofimo lopez is most certainly, definitely not a white person. nothing to see here folks

Anyone can be a bigot. Racism/white supremacy is a system of power and domination of all areas of human activity. Racism/white supremacy is the oldest and most established form of “dei” and affirmative action in history.

The same people who whined and moaned about her getting iced were the same people giving money tk that POG marine that unalived that little special needs kid from behind in the NYC subway

Berenchyk, Madrimov, Lamont Roach, Stanionis are bigger Draws than Teo?

No but he needs to get his weight up because he is too high risk and low reward. He has to be able to draw some money first in order to get the attention from the brothers.

He needs a new promoter in order to help build up his brand because his current one has failed to do so. Perhaps he could use a personality transplant in order to captivate the mainstream's audience attention.
