ESPN will cover "Mayweather Jr. tirade" in a bit..

[HARLEM AL]

Their publicists and PR agents were paid properly and handled their business while Floyd handles his own.....that is the difference.

lol at this bull****. it was swept under the rug because they are white.

Yeah ok. I got some beach from property in North Dakota to sell you if you believe that

nobody f#ck with jesse or al b1tch azz. i dont know where you got your info from. we see them as frauds just like other people do.

The media eats it up every time Sharpton or Jackson speak up on an issue. They are pseudo-political figures who use their stature and reputation to throw the term racism into various issues to invoke or negate certain actions from other people.

Whether they actually represent certain groups of people or just themselves, I don't know but they seem to carry themselves as if they think they do.

exactly.

and in most cases, i believe they do make a difference for african americans just in the fact that they're very determined.

better that than some online folks on here calling them frauds but most assuredly do nothing to contribute to their own kind anyway.

who's the fraud then? eh?

So they pick on Floyd because of his skin color? They likely called him out because he talks smack, is being publicly perceived as the one caused the biggest boxing match in a long, long, time to not happen, and now is saying negative comments that can very easily be seen as racist against perhaps the most popular boxer in the world.

Plus, Floyd doesn't care what people think about him, so he says what he wants. These other top athletes mess up and then keep quiet about the "incident" when they are asked about it and have their PR agents give money up so that stuff stays hush-hush. You know Floyd isn't paying out any extra cash for a guy to smooth things over for him.....instead he goes on U-Stream and airs his dirty laundry....what did he think would happen anyways?
ESPN did do a piece on the Big Ben **** thing and it was all a "no comment" issue. There was no R Kelly video of the act uploaded on the web to be used against him either. Floyd wanted his comments to be heard and it got him what he wanted, he is the talk of the town right? That is what he wanted to happen

rolf all the ESPN viewers gonna be laughing at manny

LAUGHING at pac?

Beat! Beat! Drums!: Actor-Congressman Manny Pacquiao's glory shines even more

* September 3rd, 2010 4:46 am ET

Brief Sidebar on Poetic Intervention, Hollywood, California - "Character and personal force are the only investments that are worth anything," said Walter Whitman (May 31, 1819 - March 26, 1892), an American poet, essayist, journalist, and humanist who published his poem "Beat! Beat! Drums!" as a patriotic rally call for the North America.

But, Floyd "Money-Pretty Boy" Mayweather,Jr.'s recent acerbic tirades against Filipino headline celebrity, Manny Pacquiao, calling the latter a "midget" and etcetera ,are nothing more than just beating the drums for entertainment, however offensive they are. Sure , his character is one such of an abomination, which may have gone to the lowest level of the abyss. For Maywearther, Jr., it is his way of patriotic rally for all his fans.

But, whatever verbal attacks Mayweather, Jr. has, one thing is clear he has broken the boundaries of poetic form of entertainment.

It's just Pacquiao's entertaining power has become a threat to the man from Grand Rapids. Enviousness is what gets in the head of this self-righteous monicker - under the prompting of his sanctified name - "Money-Pretty Boy", all because Pacquiao's rising popularity in the mainstream America may have railroaded over his antics, even over his best at the "Dancing with the Stars."

Conversely, give thanks to Money-Pretty Boy of his vulgarity because Pacquiao's glory shines even more...lifting, in fact, even much higher.

there's always an ignorant black person that the white news reporters always talk to when there's plenty of smart and informed black people around.. that ignorant black person today is floyd.

[Capo Loko]

Lol @ ESPN trying to crucify The Black Jesus!

[pasawayako]

it seems like the only time boxing is coverd on espn is when it has something to do with mayweather

I noticed that too bro, espn covers floyd about him being a coward and him being a racist, what a great way to be covered by one of the biggest media in the whole world.
