Floyd COMPARES his drug crusade to Malcom X & Dr. King
Mayweather Jr compares himself and his ‘Drug Crusade’ to Martin Luther King Jr and Malcom X
The man with some of the fastest hands in the sport can only be outdone by the fastest lips in the sport. In Floyd’s latest “gum bumping” encounter, he went on record claiming that his “Drug Crusade” is on par with what Martin Luther King Jr and Malcom X did in their Civil Rights efforts. Floyd thinks that he’s leading the way in creating freedom and equality in boxing just like Martin and Malcom did in America.
“But it’s me taking a stand for something that means something. And it’s for the fighters who are up and coming. It’s sort of the same stance Martin Luther King and Malcolm X made, so we could have freedoms, so everybody could tell the world that we’re equal. The only thing I’m saying is that we are equal. So if you’re not on nothing and I’m not on nothing, then let’s go take the test. That’s all I’m saying." FMJ, Grand Rapids Press
I think it’s safe to say, Floyd is doing nothing remotely close to what Martin Luther King Jr or Malcom X have done. Whether you agree or disagree with the actions and beliefs of Martin or Malcom, you can all agree that Civil Rights is a much higher cause than drug testing in Boxing. I also think it’s safe to say that Floyd will never be like Martin or Malcom. Without going too much farther down this tangent, I happen to be a huge fan of Martin Luther King Jr. I still get goose bumps every time I watch the following speech:
If Floyd was so dedicated to equality in Boxing then why did it take him 40 fights, and 14 years after he turned pro, to start demanding equality? I’ve never heard Floyd demand Boxing, and the different Athletic Commissions, to add Steroids to their drug testing before they did. In fact, up until his encounter with Pacquiao, I never heard Floyd publicly “beat the drums” for any type of drug to be tested or any style of drug testing. And, according to Keith Kizer Executive Director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, he has never petitioned the NSAC to make any changes even after his public outcry toward Pacquiao.
Floyd’s demands for Pacquiao to take the test are baseless. Pacquiao’s never tested positive for anything, and Floyd has never demanded any other fighter take additional blood tests before this Pacquiao encounter.
My last point on this topic is this, if Floyd does suspect Manny of taking something illegal then why doesn’t he or his criminal family members say what it is? They talk so much trash and make so many disgusting accusations about Manny, why don’t they ever come out and say what it is. Or are we to believe Roger Mayweather’s claims, that Pacquiao is on A-Meth, is why the entire Mayweather clan and GBP have gone out of their way to publicly smear Manny “Mr. Hollywood” Pacquiao?
Floyd, give me proof or give me a break!
