Comments Thread For: WBC Suspends Adrien Broner Over 'Mexican' Swipe

Hey Broner, have you heard about the ninjas. Yeah, they got sand ninjas, border ninjas. Oh, oh, and the worse ones, the Winjas!

Whether this was simply offensive or racist per this incident doesn't change the fact that Broner is a documented, proven racist. This was just ONE of FOUR racially motivated slurs that Broner has made over the last two years. This was just the last nail in the coffin for Broner. He is a confirmed racist by definition. Don Imus was rightfully attacked from ONE set of comments he made on the radio, let alone FOUR like Broner has made in public.

To my knowledge Tyson never brought race/ethnicity into his trash talk.

And idk, Jose Sulaiman ran the W.B.C. back during the Hopkins incidents. Mauricio runs it now. Maybe his dad was more tolerant of that kind of stuff and he isn't.

Tyson " I'll **** you in your ass punk WHITE boy,.... etc.." "Scared like a little WHITE *****, I'll **** you till you love me ******".

I would not make an apology. There was no racial slur involved. Profanity filled yes, but not racist.

The WBC has nothing to say here. Broner fought for the WBA international title or something like that, not WBC.

That is probably why the WBC has so much to say. If it was for some lower WBC title they would not have noticed the remarks while they were focusing on their sanctioning fee.

No, it wasn't racist in a literal sense but it was racial and disrespectful. People can argue semantics but common sense says it was pushing it too far and it's very good to know that they did something about it.

I dont think its a matter of racism, it's a matter of someone BLATANTLY verbally offending a nation so close to their national holiday, wich was celebrated on that day.

Completely agree with the WBC, the meaning "he yung doe" doesn't exist in their vocabulary.

[Mr.Fantastic]

Not like it matters anyways. There is other belts he can fight for.

[Cuban Linx]

I'm not a Broner fan but that is a WEAK ass suspension.

Well if you live by the sword you die by the sword.
If you go around talking the amount of inflammatory bs that he does then he will have to face the consequences.
