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

[Frank Ducketts]

What he said last Saturday is only one of 4 points that indicate how he degrades Mexicans. And Racism also includes racial slurs, not just denying someone a position, etc. That's why they call them racial slurs/racial comments.

Anyone CAN get it. AfriCANS, I just beat the **** out of a MexiCAN". You're a cry baby. A ****ing cry baby... Here.

Yes he has degraded Mexicans in the past. He didn't do that Saturday night. He did his usual post fight schtick. He didn't utter a slur saturday night.

Doesn't matter, it still becomes a sticking point and obviously people were offended and it adds more layers to his other statements.

And look who is doing all the crying - YOU! And did you conveniently forget the other comments made by Broner degrading Mexicans that didn't have the "CAN" denominator? Obviously. Keep crying you bald-headed fart.

yes it does. you said he uttered a slur when he didn't. As cuahtemoc (sp) suggested the suspension might be for culmulative infractions. Ok, I get that. But what he said Saturday night simply wasn't racist. It was terrible timing given, again as cuha pointed out, Cinco de mayo weekend.

Thats what this seems to be. Not that what he said was racist or a sllur, but that he said it on the holiday. I'm sure a similar act on MLK day or St. Patricks Day may be addressed the same way.

The other day I said whether some consider what he said simply offensive or downright a racial slur does not deter from the fact that Broner's character is defined by numerous examples and last Saturday ties in with what was known about him before the day even began. One of the many derogatory comments he has made about Mexicans....par for the course. Business as usual for Broner.

I think thats a stretch but all Broner shows is **** tapes, rapping, cursing etc. so I can understand anyone who questions his charachter.

If you really are sincere in this psot-and I assume you are-then you'd have to say Broner wasn't a racist because after every fight his scthick includes everyone, not just mexicans.

So if you use his past behavior to label this act, isn't it better to incorporate all of what you know?

As I said to cuahetmoc (sp), I think Broner has been sold on getting the Mexican fans to hate him rather than develop a fanbase of his own as a way to make more money. The way he has degraded Mexican fighters makes me think this. That is truly sad that this is the path he seems to have chosen.
