Wait let me get this straight.... So Broner do it and its classless.. koralev do it..

Thanks for ignoring the actual definition of double standards.

"A double standard is the application of different sets of principles for similar situations, or by two different people in the same situation."

Circumstances aren't the same or even similar enough, sorry bro.

It's really that simple.

Both fighters had classless reactions post fight. That is hat the TS is asking-why are classless actions viewed differently. Its clear that you and others are applying a different set of principles for similar situations, which clearly meets the definiton.

The situations aren't similar. The context of the actions matters, because it relates to how we view the situation. You are the person who claimed double standards, I showed you that your definition of double standards was incorrect.

The TS is discussing posters evaluation of post fight actions. here is what you said



In the Broner fight the crowd absolutely booed him. He absolutely was called all kinds of names. I don't know about spit-did Kovavlev say he was spat on? Paulie trashed talked him all during the lead up and during the fight.

EIther you find reasons for both guys or you don't. Its really simple.

Broner gets booed because of his god awful trash personality. If he was booed just because of nationality, I would fully back Broner being pissed off and doing things like that. Kovalev gets booed for no reason other than he was in enemy homegrounds. Kovalev does nothing wrong, Broner's personality makes him very dislikable. If you think these two are similar enough to class as double standards, then I really hope you aren't trying to pose as an unbiased poster.

When defending Floyd or Boner you always apply simpleton logic. This is full time for you, I wasnt here the weekend but if i have a look back, I would wager that you have been flomming all weekend.

Broner and Frankenstein can do whatever they want because they be thoroughly laying the smack down on their opponents....a little showmanship plus alot of ass kicking equals must see tv

[STREET CLEANER]

Broner is a consistant classless fool. In/out, before/after the fight, at all times Broner is a douche bag.

Koralev doing it once after being in a hostile environment does't put him there yet. Brave but dumb reaction

This is one of the most meaningless replies i've ever had. I shouldn't even waste my time here with you, but oh well. Never said Kovalev was classy at all, I just excused him given he did nothing wrong. I would if it was Broner. Having your national anthem booed like that was very disrespectful. Yes it happens a lot, wouldn't care if others acted the same as Kovalev in those circumstances. But like I said if you think these two things count as double standards, you've clearly got an agenda hidden.

Please give me a better reply next time, ones like this bore the hell out of me

dude, stop making excuses. he was in a hostile environment like countless boxers before him and he acted like a clown. its that simple. there was nothing special about what happened to him, there need not be any excuses. and no, i dont have an agenda hidden, im just tired of reading this crap. like what happened to the guy was somehow not to be expected. its not even about broner, broner is a cringeworthy clown. but seriously, acting like kovalev is some simpathetic figure is just as cringeworthy from boxing fans. like i said, its pathetic. dont make excuses for the guy. nothing out of the ordinary happened to him. to hear the way some of u dudes are talking u would think this is tennis or some ****

Not sure how you even read that in my posts. The stuff youre arguing with me about is exactly what you're posting here. I said there was nothing special about his circumstances, but I wouldn't care if people act the way Kovalev did in them (as i've said three times now). My problem was with people comparing this to Broners antics, twisting it to make out Broner is just like everyone else. Whats your problem exactly?
