Mayweather: what has Africa done for me?

[_Maxi]

many of those 300 million are from people coming from all over as immigrants, not citizens making babies. much of the growth of this country started AFTER the transatlantic slave trade




i think i know a little more about what went on in my country than some guy in argentina.


duh populations grow but you have to be a complete idiot to believe 90 % of native americans were killed during those years because of disease, and war.....and all the so called negroes are descendents of ******...you do realize everyone has 32 great great grand parents right....i doubt all 32 of an african americans came off a slave ship

where the hell are the slave ships? you can find a million year old fossil but cant find a 200 year old slave ship? **** out of here

their was transatlantic slavery but not on the scale of people coming from africa people were lead to believe


yea i spread so much bull**** here but i didnt write in school books that say a man discovered a place that already had people living there..you do realize christopher columbus himself said the natives of hispanola said they traded gold and spears with darker skinned people who arrived off boats from the west.....look it up...you wont....if you cant dispute anything Im sayihng, shut the **** up and stay in your lane.


do you even know what American means and the original meaning....it was meant for the aboriginal copper skinned inhabitants that europeans met upon arrival....you need to read more instead of troll

You don't want to recognize yourself as black, man you're on denial.

idiot....i am proud of my heritage. the point is i am an american....was born here. native born...natural american.

a) no one is actually black, we are brown. Black is not a race of people bro...get out of the 1950s

b) black is a term european used to classify people they didnt know how to classify. JUst like terms like negro, colored, african american, etc. If you actually read a book less than 150 years ago, in the USA if you were not european you were labeled negro.....whether you were african, native american, mixed whatever. they mated together as well and intermarried

c) why worry about a land that isnt worried about me. do you send money to europe? im sure you have european ancestors

d) I am proud of my native and african heritage, I just have not identified my people there. I KNOW my people here. I was raised with them. My grandmother who raised my mom is over half Muskoke native.There is a difference. I have no connection to africa. I was born here, raised here, all ive ever known is the USA.


im an american...not an african american....not a black american....im good old fashioned...copper skinned american...most of my ancestors been here. Some were african, most were native american.

thats the problem with some people.....you try to tell people who they are, their history, heritage...you are only qualified to speak for yourself.....worry about yourself.....and not other people

I know that I'm just say why should he have give money to a place he never been or know nothing about just because he black

you'd give to africa because of the need. whether or not he feels that it's something he should do because of his heritage is up to him.

but if he wants to be charitable, he should have a different attitude toward giving. you don't give to africa [or anybody in need] because of what they've done or have not done for you. you give to africa because of the poverty. the same way he's done for poor people in america. are they really giving anything to floyd mayweather? floyd's actually a very charitable guy. this interview is just an odd look. i think the interviewer could have easily steered him in a better direction. anything is better than repeating "tru dat"


it's the poorest continent on the planet. poor in flint and poor in africa are different stratospheres. the poverty over there is staggering. i knew a girl from uganda, and she and her family would habitually get tested for aids when she lived there. she called it "getting a blood count." 10-20 % of the adult population in uganda had aids / HIV when she was born. i think it's around 8-10% now.

lol that woman cracked me up agreeing with every word he said "tru dat, tru dat... raaaaiiight, raaaaiiight..."

that was pathetic. you can't expect a compelling interview when that thing is asking the questions. who the hell gave her a job talking on the f#cking radio?

I was in NY last year and near the Harlem there were some guys on the street speaking with a microphone. They had posters that read: "we are not africans, we are americans". They also said stuff like: "Africans are gays" and showing pictures of black people in Africa naked and small children touching their long penises. I'm not joking. They were there everyday, in the same corner. Do you know them?

It's true that black people should not be called african americans. Do they call european americans to white people? I don't think so.

thats my point....the people tell you who they are...not the other way around


I think those guys call themselves hebrew israelites....i live in GA...never saw anything like that. heard of them though

so i understand why floyd would say that....he has no connection to africa besides what someone told him....they told him he was african american just like everyone else...before that people were colored.....negro..etc.

"black people?" Dude you're straight trolling and most likely an Argentinian American. However, it seems to be no coincidence that many posters on NSB claiming they're from Argentina somehow disappeared when Martinez, Matthysse, Chaves, or Maidana left.... so these trolls have gone with Lil'G...

It is highly known that Argentinians are racist insecure heads. No wonder Angel Garcia gives a fug about Argentinians! lol

You said black people should not be called African americans. Therefore, how many "black" or colored people live throughout the world. How would your statement even apply to the "blacks" that live in the UK or the "blacks" in Pakistan and India? What would that have to do with "African americans?"

Therefore, either Argentinian education is poor, which in fact, you guys are a third world country, or you're a troll Argentinian-American embracing your ethnicity.

"European Americans to white people" ??

There's a thing called European Immigrants which constitutes which races of people? Does it include African and Asian too?

If you're from Argentina and haven't traveled the world with intelligent conversations, then it's normal for you to not comprehend what I'm saying. but yeah, no Argentinian boxers running things as of late, and I don't see Messi winning a World Cup either. at least you've got Lil'G to hope for like "unifying all the belts" and having a poor resume
