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

[Foreign Soil]

Which is worse? Saying negro and calling out a thug or being upset that you lost a sparring match so you wave around a gun making threats?

I think the US is the only country that I know of where the word 'negro' is considered offensive.

I wasn't talking about Kovalev's situation specifically. I was commenting on the 'side discussion' that these guys are having.

I already gave my thoughts on Kovalev's comments.

He probably is a racist, but I'm ok with it as long as he knocks people out

Most Russians have never even seen a Black person before so they have really no opinion (negative or positive) on them compared to Western European Whites. So Kovalev may just legitimately dislike most of the Blacks he has encountered in America. Nothing wrong with that. Maybe he trains in the "hood" and encounters lower class Blacks.

Can I ask something? why do you need to call someone by their race, "hey Ni g g a". Why cant you just say " Hey dude" or whatever. Some posters here saying that in Spain they refer to blacks as n e g r o s, does that make it right just because everyone's doing it? hell na, I DONT CARE WHAT CONTEXT IT'S USED. I can't go around calling white people " red neck" or whatever. No excuses for what Sergy said.

And people must not come with that " but blacks call each other that the whole time" bull crap, cause it's not the same thing.

People saying, " he from Russia, he don't know any better' -GTFO with that BULL S H I T.

Russians have never oppressed Blacks/Africans in any way.

If he has a problem on how we view things then he should go back to Russia.
