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

We agree! Everyone loves the brothas and can't resist the BBC! Not even Teofimo, your wife or your women! I am very happy in knowing that you feel that way.

Midget mind.

So do you think it’s good from a marketing standpoint to use racial animus and bigotry as a tool to promote fights?

Can’t you see that the major advertisers and sponsorships would run and duck for cover from this foolish nonsense? For fear of declining sales and revenue.

This type of shit Teo is pulling is not only hurting his brand but also his image and reputation too. Nothing good could ever come from this bullshit.

No I don’t think it’s good promotion wise ! You are not understanding me! I just everyone is way too sensitive. Look how someone made a forum topic off of it. It causes fight banter back and forth which causes more intense discussion and interest in the fights themselves

ESPN was playing that race card like a mofo. They kept showing the bananas and the watermelon. Not me lol

And all I got was commercials throughout the whole 6-7 hours of fights that night. So I’m just telling it like it is . I don’t have a problem with what you saying just understand boxing is tribal. People are going to root for ethnicity. It’s a natural occurrence .

And for the ignorant minded out there who never lived in the island . Puerto Ricans are black, there is also blonde hair Eminem looking ones , and Taino Indian looking ones , and the mixed breeds. They would laugh at this **** . And for damn sure ate those bananas and handled business in the ring.

You say this as if Davis didn't do exactly that. I also remember Puerto Ricans going crazy when Hopkins threw their flag to the ground from Trinidad's hand. So don't pretend that Puerto Ricans are special or any better than anybody else.

I’m just talking about how a little racism ain’t that big of a deal in sport that involves punching people in the face. That’s all

Lopez and Garcia can fight each other. Our fighters don’t need them.
