If you guys don't know, I'm an African American. By saying/telling some this information, I open myself up to alot of harsh and crule feed back.
But I'm going to try and break down what Bernard was trying to say.........
Bernards "Slick African American boxer" comment was idiotic, slick fighters come in every race.
The best way I can describe it is to take a look at basketball. Jordan (slick, flashy) and Bird (fundamentally sound), 2 of the best to play. One is basically no better than the other, they just play the game different.
Then look at Steve Nash (Slick, flashy), Jason Williams (slick, flashy) and the list goes on and on.
Slick has nothing to do with race, Bernard spoke without thinking. By him doing that, it allowed a bunch of already racist people to show who they are anyway. He gave them a reason to display the white hoods and sheets, just by mentioning race.
We all do things different, then we put a name to it (Slick).
Joe "Blow" Cal-Slappy was one of the slickest, Pirog shows SOME slickness also.
Bernard was talking about Floyd and we all know this, and he should have just said that.
So the people who choose to continue with the race thing, they are what they are.
Love your own, just respect others.............................
Now can we talk boxing
