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

        Well, it's rumored that PBC is trying to get their own set of belts sanctioned. Read that Haymon article I just posted. If that's the case, I'm sure the racism and bigotry towards black boxers will subside to some amount.

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.
          List 10 examples, or just kindly keep quiet and keep it moving.

            Oscar said something about how blacks can't take punches to the body.

            Gonzalez and numerous other Mexican fighters have claimed that black boxers don't have "heart" and "machismo", inferring that they are inferior.

            Mares bragged about how he used to get into "riots" against blacks in his "hood".

            There are more, but they aren't easily accessible considering they're often concealed from public viewing.

              None of that is racist. Post some specific examples of racism, not boxers talking about other boxers shortcomings in the ring.

                Floyd should of gotten suspended for the racist Pac n Asian comments. Floyd's fans are the fastest to call someone racist.

                  Didn't Mayorga call Mayweather Sr. a 'mono' - Monkey in Spanish? I know he isn't Mexican, but that's direct racism that went unpunished.

                  And lol @ you saying those comments aren't racist. Claiming those of another race is inferior isn't racism. Wow.

                    Wasn't Mayweather holding a WBC belt at that time? Perhaps they only step in when it's in regards to Mexicans.
