    should Kovalev be suspended like Broner was for his insensitive comments?

    The mexicans in the WBC were quick to suspend AB for his mildly insensitive comment so there shouldn't be a double standard right? I personally don't think either should be suspended.

      There is really no such thing as a suspension in boxing unless it's really long. Broner fought 4 months later after his.

        People are too ****ing sensitive.

        It's not like he attended a KKK rally or donated to a racist organization. It was just name calling.

            it was crap that broner got suspended.. Beyond crap actually

            So obviously I don't think kovolev should be suspended...


            Though I do think kovolev was actually being racist, and broner was just talking smack..

                I actually disagree that he should be suspended, but only because I disagree that Broner should have been suspended too. In fact, the only reason he was suspended was because of the big Mexican influence the WBC has. Remember it was ONLY the WBC who suspended him, the other organizations thought it was a big joke of them to do that. That's what happens when you make dumb comments towards Mexicans I guess, which is odd because Mexican-born fighters get away with saying a lot sometimes.

                But because Broner was suspended, why wouldn't Kovalev be too? Is there a double standard in place? Broner made a ****** comment that wasn't about race (considering Mexican isn't a race) when Kovalev made a straight racist remark that he actually had to take down due to intense backlash.

                I honestly believe FORCING Kovalev to man up and stop ducking Stevenson is a better punishment. I think Stevenson will absolutely annihilate Kovalev and make him pay. That's what's coming to him if he ever grows some balls and fights Stevenson.

                  i Dont see why.

                  I am on record saying broner shouldent have been suspened

                  people are just cry babies and love to voice their opinion when they find something that fits their agenda.
