What if your boxing idol came out of the closet(GAY)? would you still support him?

[ßringer]

I wouldn't be bothered by it in the least, and anybody that would be, has serious sexual insecurity issues.

Emille Griffith is one of my favorite fighters of all time.

[MANGLER]

Yea. That's their choice, even if it is ****ed up.

[..David..]

Hahahaha i would like to say yes and look open minded but in reality i wouldnt support him anymore and would be really dissapointed

hahahaha i know it seems extreme but i got a little ****phobic since an exgirlfriend turned gay hahahah

[Akyra]

i believe pacquiao fans would be loyal enough to continue supporting and loving him the same.

thought about this coz of this thread:

for me, no. thats bad for men boxing. i dont hate gays.. its just............................

wow man , are you trying to get good feed before coming out of the closet. Are you telling us something here , If a gay person can become a champion , then I will never watch boxing again in my life.

[ummid]

honestly, i would still probably support him but to a lesser degree. when i become a huge fan of a fighter, i like to put myself in his shoes not just during matches, but outside the ring as well. it wouldn't bother me as much if lance armstrong comes out of the closet but in the case of boxing, a sport where physical dominance is the key to excitement and being the alpha male is given so much credit, it just isn't the same. i don't have anything against ****sexuals, i just don't see alot in common with them, so it's hard for me to be a huge fan.

call me ****phobic, but if pacquiao were to be proven gay, i doubt i'll be as hyped up on his fights as i am right now.

[baracuda]

well, floyd fans still support him...nothing wrong with that...lol

[DonTaseMeBrah]

i think he should just go ahead & come out. Its to his advantage.......

Nobody would ever clinch or try to smother him......


Everybody will be forced to fight on the outside. He will definitely retire undefeated.

He's the one that engages in the clinches though.

there are lots of huggings in boxing so the ****phobic opponents will surely feel uncomfortable, there will be lots of mocking/teasing(hard to control for some people coz its funny) from some people whenever they hug each other and many more destructions, so the fight wont be good. hate tto say this but gays must be banned in men boxing..
