Kovalev's manager: "Sergey is not a racist."

[FrankieBruno]

Russia unfortunately teaches its children hate and prejudice, thank god for the internet that Russian children can learn from us westerners about basic human rights


Ive met many Russians over here in London and i could not repeat the things they say about their native Russia. Its good to see they are assimilated to their adopting nation and shun Russia

Sadly we also have Russian gangs who abuse women via sex rings, these are the types of Russians we should deport back to Russia. These men treat women in the most appalling fashion, kidnapping them and forcing them in to prostitution, something i believe is very common in Russia.

You don't want people to "brush it off", but you do want them to "move on".

You don't want people to take notice of what Kovalev said, but you do when he meets your particular criteria of what it takes to be a star.

You don't think Bradley is a hype job.

There's three types of ****** people:

1. ****** people who don't know they're ******, and will never be able to recognize & address it.

2. ****** people who recognize that they say/do ****** things, but have no intention of changing, because they just don't care.

3. ****** people who have absolutely no idea that they're ******, and even worse, genuinely believe they're intelligent (which only adds to the hilarity).

You're No. 3.

Once again you prove you have no real argument to what I stated. Since I clearly explain to you in basic terms and you still seem to not understand but instead repeat the same **** over and over. Maybe you do understand but are one of those types that don't like to concede which is typical of internet arguments. You are the dumb one here not me. But time to watch some NFL and waste more of my time.

Looks like everybody here understands Russian language and knows about my country more than me...

Or maybe the problem was Kovalev decided to be ignorant instead of learning about the country he chose to make a living in. It's sad u blame ppl on the internet for being ignorant but ignore kovalevs obvious ignorance.

[Banderivets]

Don't be silly. This isn't a defense of a racist thug, but an attempt to explain how a guy from a different culture making comments considered inappropriate in a society with different mores shouldn't necessarily be judged in the same way as someone who originates in or understands that culture. Also that s#it gets lost in translation.

I know ya just trolling but if Kovalev came out and declared himself a racist or made comments like you suggest he'd lose a lotta support on here - mine included.

What he said /\/\

so russian gangs are the only people that abuse women? please log off and kill yourself, idiot!

[El Angel]

Larry is dead on. It's a free country and Kovalev can feel how he wants. Do we have to agree or respect that? Of course not, that is our right.

And did I read posters seriously wishing death on people? You guys got issues. That isn't funny and I don't want you in my thread anymore.

There is still a lot of bigotry and ignorance in this world. It will continue to exist for many more lifetimes.

Does Kovalev have hatred in his heart or is he just ignorant? Only he truly knows what is in his heart. I don't follow the sport for a fighters personal feelings, I follow it for the actual fighting.

If we took an ethical stance on the sport and held the fighters accountable, not many would have fans at all. Most fighters, who grew up in the streets, are filled with ignorance, lack of education, levels of bigotry etc.

if countries would just legalize prostitution it would make sex workers lives safer and better.

there would be no need for a woman to have a pimp or have to work for organize crime. If it was legal and a customer doesnt pay or hurts the girls, they could go to the police.

Remember that secret service agent who didnt want to pay?

Escort went to police and we had an international scandal.
