    Come on. I'm sure most people know about the fried chicken stereo type for black people. Don't play dumb and pretend you had no clue about it.

    Either way, boxing fans making a racist photoshop is not comparable to a fighter spewing racist bullshit like Floyd did and anyone suddenly bringing up this argument in defense of Floyd's imbecilic rant, needs to shut the fuck up.

      What is so racist about having someone's face pasted on a chicken bucket? I don't see racism, I see ****ing food.

        I did no such thing, you're telling a bold-faced lie. I said "you're a hypocrite if....." and "you're bing hypocritical unless......". Maybe you're still in middle school still trying to perfect your reading comprehension skills or something, I don't know.

          Why isn't it comparable? Why is it acceptable for average people on the internet to be racially insensitive, but unacceptable for Mayweather to be racially insensitive? You come in here telling people to shut up and you didn't even make an intelligent argument to back your opinion. Maybe you should've taken your own advice.

            I use the initials KFC myself to signify chickening out. If it meant anything racial, I won't use it anymore. Kentucky Floyd Chicken seems about right.

                Did you even read my post? Tell me where I said the KFC thing was acceptable?

                People feel safe and say whatever they want when they are sitting comfortably behind their computer screen while Floyd made a video of himself spewing this racial crap. I'm not defending the KFC buckets, I've always thought that was pretty low. I'm saying that people using the KFC bucket in defense of Floyd himself making racist comments is bull****. If Pacquiao had publicly made a KFC sign with Floyd on it, then his comments would be somewhat understandable but still wrong.

                  It is comparable IMO, but one supersedes the other because one is in more of a position of power.

                  The fans who don't bother with being ignorant over the internet have every right to be angry. But if you're on here spouting racial nonsense then you have no moral high ground to be complaining about what he said.

                    Did Pacquiao call him a chicken once, never mind publish these KFC buckets?

                    No.

                    Who did?

                    ******ed people who think they funny. They knew the racial connotation.

                      Yeah, I didn't really word it right. It is comparable but I think Floyd publicly making racial comments is much worse than some idiots on a boxing forum making a photoshopped picture of Floyd on a KFC bucket. I've always found the KFC bucket thing to be over the line and maybe Floyd saw that and flipped out but that doesn't excuse the comments he made.

                      Now that I think about it, I guess the people who were rocking the KFC bucket really don't have much of a right to cry over the comments that he made. I just don't think Floyd should be excused because of the KFC pictures.
