he probably should, and i didnt think broner said anything out of line to be fair, nothing close to what kovalev did (or floyd did a few years ago)Comment

If you don't like it go torch your neighborhood down and bring in Al SharptonThe mexicans in the WBC were quick to suspend AB for his mildly insensitive coment but when kovalev is BLATENTLY racist and basically call Stevenson a monkey we dont have no suspension?
yall would cry non stop if this was the other way around, seems like when "certain" fighters step out of line when it comes to race yall are quick to lay down the law, but call a black man a monkey and things are all fine and dandy smh.Comment

Broner shouldn't have been suspended and neither should Kovalev.
Both made "humorous" comments about opponents which may or may not have been intended as racial slurs. You have to give someone the benifit of the doubt in a situation like that.
Calling someone a monkey as an insult, or a joke, is quite common in many countries, eg, here in the UK, and doesn't usually have any link to that person's race at all.Comment

Broner shouldn't have been suspended but was. That establishes a precedent and the same thing should be done for all fighters who commit a similar infraction. As such, Kovalev should be suspended.Broner shouldn't have been suspended and neither should Kovalev.
