Comments Thread For: Hopkins: "When Will Pacquiao Face a Top Black Fighter?"

[devildg]

His ****** black boxer theory is a joke though

Judah got knocked around by Baldomir
Mayweather got outworked by Jose Luis Castillo

I mean, I dont get how a so called black man's style is supposed to give Manny trouble at all

Even Paulie Malignaggi who fights very similar to the aforementioned black boxer got his ass whooped by Ricky Hatton

Black boxers like Nate Campbell, Mayweather and his family are simply jealous someone of another race is dominating the sport.

It's sad because Manny would never think about race. He doesnt sit at home worrying about someone elses' skin color nor does he go on Ustream and make racist videos.

That man was raised the right way, while race-obsessed Hopkins and Mayweather inject a racial issue into a sport that is supposed to be color-blind, a sweet science.

HBO Greenburg on the 2nd negotiations: "I don't know why Floyd Mayweather didn't want to fight...smh."

Why didn't you answer the question?

This is the same guy that said he would never lose to a white man

And then lost to calzaghe.

Pacman is gonna face reality when he steps in the ring against a non Mexican.

¿Why does Hopkins has to turn EVERYTHING into a RACIAL issue? Hopkins has issue's of his own for being black(african american)... After the Trinidad fight, he made a ****** comment saying that he respected Trinidad cause Trinidad had some Black in him!!(i guess he was referring to his skin color & maybe Hopkins doesn't know that Boricuas are a mix of caucasian, Taino indian & african) or even worst when he told Pavlik(after the fight) that he's a good fighter cause even thou he's white, he FIGHTS LIKE A BLACK MAN!!! & Hopkins TOPPED that remark when he told Calzaghe he would never loose TO A WHITE BOY!! & he made a fool of himself when he LOST to that WHITE BOY(Calzaghe)!! I think Hopkins is just prejudice & doesn't realize it!! Cause if a white person made those type of comments they would have the media up their ass accusing that person of making racial remarks, being prejudice & so on!! & Hopkins mentions that someone like Ray Leonard could beat Pacquiao, ¿Guess what? Leonard retired a LONG TIME AGO & there was ONLY 1 "Sugar" Ray Leonard & even thou he was a great fighter, he wasn't unbeatable!! & the ONLY black/african american fighter that could beat Pacquiao & would make the MOST money is Floyd Mayweather jr & the 2 times that fight has been in the making it has fallen apart!! Hopefully it will get done but to say Pacquiao is avoiding black or african american fighters is just ******!! Cause he is NOT avoiding ANY fighters no matter what race they are or where are they from..The ONLY thing Pacquiao & his team has tried to AVOID is Random olympic style DRUG TESTING!!!

if team pac "selects" the fighter based on fan base and draw, why did they "pick" clottey?

At the end of the day if people think floyd's a coward and is "scared", then using that same logic pac "ducked" mosley from 141-147 ("manny weight") like a "scared" bytch. No lie. Mosley was "too good" he was too slick, too fast, too powerful.... Lol they fought a punching bag in clottey and a more "exciting" punching bag in margarito who's only been busted for cheating in the past year.... Disgraceful.

Mayweather's one and only fight vs then #1 147lber, trumps pac's last two. Easily. Hell his "fight" in court will trump the clottey fight. Lol at least it will be more competative.

Side note:
Hopkin's is only saying what people think, just as floyd sr said about pac taking peds..... Its a known fact pac's team has been invoved with peds. That's more than enough of a reason to suspect.

When was the last time pac faced a top and elite black fighter? Lol (ouch)

hopkins is only stating a fact.... We dont see mayweather, mosley, pwill, berto, bradley, alexander, or even kirkland and judah. I'm sure the list could go on.... The fact is, hopkins has a very very valid point....

Again, why do we hold such low standards for pac???????????? If the logic is floyd is a "duck" than pac is the leader of all "ducks"!

nice!!!!!!

Hopkins is an idiot. I never liked Hopkins. I'll recognize Hopkins as a great fighter. There is no way you can deny him that, but Hopkins always said dumb, racist comments.

He's also boring to watch. The last time Hopkins was entertaining was back in the 90's.

The only person who was thinking that was Hopkins, I doubt no one else was thinking on why Manny hasn't faught black fighters. And there really are only 2 black fighters to consider. Mayweather, and the winner between Bradley and Alexander. Berto doesn't deserve the shot, and Mosley is shot.

[jai mari078]

As soon as Floyd stops running. Pac is fast but not fast enough to catch Floyd running!!!!!!!!!!

How sad is it to go out of your way to get yourself on a radio show and bash a fighter that you never have a chance of fighting? That is the definition of being a hater. B-Hop is mad that he was never a star. Why would someone who does'nt gain anything by bashing Pacquiao bash him? For no other reason but pure hate. He needs to cut the race **** and stop hatin. It's not like Pac is some white dude that is'nt that good and peole just hype him up. He's so bent out of shape becuase for once the best P4P fighter in the sport is'nt black. He's so mad for some reason.

B-Hop is full of ****. He lost the ****in Calzaghe fight. He needs to drop it already. Another thing is he needs to fight Pascal like a man. We all know he won't fight like a man against Pascal. He wants to talk like a man but he don't want to fight like one. He wants to grab, fall down, fake low blows, fake rabbit punches, hold some more, and complain like a *****. He should actually educate himself with Pascal becuase Pascal is no joke.

Paulie is not slick. I'm tired of people saying he's slick. Dude is an average C-level fighter who lost all his big fights and has no power in both hands. He also has no head movement, too slow, low boxing IQ, etc.
