richart quick question: The people who rail about bigotry and racism on this board call floyd and broner " racist f*****s". Isn't be**er and *we**ack the equivalent of fa**ot?

Three words - context, source, intention.

Racial slurs clearly indicate racism. Racial slurs by definition are saying something disrespectful or derrogatory about an individual or groups ethnicity, race, color, nationality. I work in a school system that KNOWS the definition and holds meetings about this all the time.

so u have faith in the american school system brother???????? so do u take off from work on "racist" columbus day and complain about the lies taught there? lol i know im going too far but im a debater its what i do.... and thats not the defenition of racism its just the defenition they put on the word! thats just hate from a particular person racism would mean one holds his own race in high reguards over the other or stands for his particular race...which everyone pretty much does.... just look up the 2 words and tell me if im lying RACE and IST.... but ill let u win this one its a boxing web site it just makes me laugh to see people complain about racism for those reasons but overlook the more harmful things done day in and day out!

good luck educator

And it isn't about hype. I can name some vulgar boxers and ones who are not who never get into racial slurs and are effective. Sugar Ray Leonard became a superstar without such crap. I doubt Mayorga used slurs..he used everything else. Andre Ward a guy who lives near me is a star and top PFP and doesn't. Something is missing when a fighter resorts to the unacceptable to promo himself.

but none of them are adrian broner so what does that matter mate?

but SRL was a coke fiend that beat his wife and kids and they hid that. WHich is worse, that or retweeting the word wettbkac

racism would mean one holds his own race in high reguards over the other or stands for his particular race...

Broner saying that a boxer cannot be equal to him in a particular catagory because in his words "at the end of the day, he is Mexican" IS a racial slur BY UNIVERSALLY ACCEPTED DEFINITIONS! Not arguable, not up for debate!

That is not analogous to this topic. This is about becoming famous or hyping without racial slurs. Man, you are WAY off the tangent. I might as well ask you, what is more racist, calling an ethnicity names or snorting coke? Get back on the tangent.

None of them used racial slurs like Broner according to you for "hype" purposes. No way in hell does a fighter need racial slurs for attention, hype, etc. That goes without saying.
