A threat to who?

[Roxas]

Agreed, any successful young black male is seen as a threat

Spot On Flawless

I didn't watch it either, but only *****s are defending his actions as marketing genius like this guy...



I gotta praise IMDAZED... atleast he had the brain power to condemn floyd's childish antics as pathetic....

pathetic maybe, but u cant expect a person to show much else but a mask anyway at best a real striking one, wen theyre being scorned left and right anyway. this is the character he plays like it or not. for money and talk purposes, not liking is prefered anyway.

i dont care for his attitudes particularly, but im also looking to be entertained and floyd is def entertaining even in his most random at times akward moments. wat other hot shot boxer do u remember sharing that many hours of his personal time with his fans. no one even bothered to be a little grateful.

Your not really one of those guys that is still crying about "The Man" keeping you down are you?

Again, who is a successful black man a threat to?

[Pocket Dogs!]

See what's pathetic is that White America no longer has its own hopes these days anymore due to a reduction of them living in poverty, so they push their twisted idea on an innocent asian kid.



There are no Great White Hopes available in this era, so they consider manny The Great Hope in its place.

In the first place, that cover was never on U.S. newsstands it was only released in Asia. Second, it's titled "The Great Hope" because the article talks about how poor Filipinos look up to Pacquiao and what he's accomplished because of his hard work and how he left the ****** because of it. The article doesn't mention anything about how Pac could beat Floyd.

Jeez, you ****in' *****s are goddamn ******ed sometimes.

Still not clear on this. A threat to who?

Im not even sure where to start with this one. Let's see...Floyd said some ignorant things about an Asian boxer. Suddenly that turns into White America hating a Black man having money? Most of the country voted for *****, so you can get lost with that "White America" nonsense. Floyd is not Jack Johnson. Floyd is not Ali. He is Floyd Mayweather. He is his own man and should be viewed in kind. Now, the fact that some would rather turn this into a "**** the White man!!!" thread rather then a "Let's break down what Floyd really said and have a dialogue about it" thread is just plain sad. Also, since when has "White America" pitted all of its hopes on Manny? If White America gave a **** about race they would have backed guys like Calzaghe, Tszyu, Hatton, Wlad, Vitali and Pavlik. The fact is they view those fighters as objectivly as they view anyone else. Poll the races of the fans of Floyd Mayweather on here, and I would be willing to bet that most of his fans are White. So then the question becomes, what is your argument? America has a lot of White people in it. Floyd is rich as **** in America. Boxingscene has alot of White posters on it. Floyd has alot of White fans on here. If you simply want to continue to live with a victim mentality of "Whitey wont let a brother have anything" then you might as well crawl under a rock and stay there. You cant accept reality. That reality involves a great boxer named Floyd Mayweather. That reality, sadly, includes Floyd saying some racist **** about an Asian boxer. And equally as sad, that reality includes fans like you who try to turn a rich racist into the victim.

I want floyd to entertain me inside the ring. I don't want him to entertain me outside the ring. I think you have being a boxing fan mixed up with being a fan boy.
