    Casual racism has been part of my persona for over half a decade. And I don't just target Asians. Everyone is fair game.

    Yikes, I've been on this site too long.
    And you're proud of that? Yikes indeed!

      For example, he was age 21 when he had this successful defense of his world flyweight title:

      When Floyd was age 21, he fought this poor little bantamweight at junior lightweight.
      I'd like to say well done for making the TS look like a total goof, but he did that when he created this thread.

        Yes, Pacquiao could move up to middleweight or even heavyweight but HE DOESN'T WANT TO. Height has little to do with what weight a fighter should compete at. Lean, muscular body weight is what matters. There are pro boxers who are 5 ft. 11inches and would be over weight and flabby at any weight over 135 while Tyson was hard as a rock at 5 ft. 11 inches tall and weighing 220 pounds. Pacquiao started pro boxing as a 108 pounder So Pacquiao fighting at welterweight means he has moved up 9 weight classes. Duran turned pro 135 pounds and fought as high as 168 so he only moved up 5 weight classes. Duran was fat as hell at 168 and should not have been fighting at that weight. Marvin Hagler turned pro at 160 and retired at 160 and never moved up in weight even one weight class. Was Hagler not a great fighter?

          Its funnier than saying "Floydiots, Floydspastics, Floboners, Flowmos" in more than half my posts.

          You're a good chap. Have a drink.

            Isnt it funny how the same racist floydspastics that seem to want Manny top keep jumping up divisions are the very same spastics who say Andre Ward shouldnt move up ONE division. See through ****s.

              No racism is funny, casual or otherwise.

                Didnt Pac used to put rocks in his pockets just to weigh in heavier? Thats pretty cool. Warrior status.

                  Funny you don't seem to complain when I make casually racist posts towards Blacks, Hispanics, Indians, Arabs, English, Irish or the Scottish. Just Asians.

                    Not really, as I've never seen you affect a mock accent of any of those you mentioned. If I had seen it I would. And what a piss weak response! What are you saying? Racism is ok? 'Its ok folks, I'm racist to everyone...I dont discriminate!' jesus wept, man! You seem to be oblivious to the fact that you are part of a fanbase that is constantly either racist, race baiting or pulling the race card even when(always) when its completely inappropriate. Great stuff D!

                      I'm not actually racist though, they're jokes and meant to be all in good fun. Its the internet. And yes I realize a lot of Floyd fans are race baiters but so what? I'm a fan of Floyd's boxing ability, not his butt-hugging rejects who'd follow him to hell.
