This is going to be piss off a lot of people here

In reality 80 percent of the brothers ruin it for the other 20 percent.

In more ways than 1 , the brothers ruin it for themselves .

so true....floyd didn't have a single endorsement deal. good thing he didn't need it.

"I wish the big companies would be more diverse, and show love to everybody."

Keep wishing. The companies will go where the popularity is.

Shut it you pampered crybaby, Golovkin wishes he had it as easy as you. I hope Maccarinelli retires him for good.

No one with a shred of honesty can ignore the role of Floyd's woman-beating antics and apologism for the same in his inability to get endorsements. Corporations don't see skin colour. If a fighter is exciting and popular, his skin colour is irrelevant. Ward is a gentleman but inactive and not that popular. Broner is posting videos of himself eating out strippers and wiping his ass with money. Let's be honest here.

And if you want to suggest that a fighter's skin colour affects his general popularity, then you're probably on to something. But the idea that companies consciously discriminate in that way doesn't add up. If it spikes their sales they couldn't care less.

75 percent of Floyds ppv sales didnt come because of his talent. It came because of the sale of his attitude and people wanting to see him lose /get beat up and humbled.

Truth is ,him and his people knew this and he used it along with his calculated matchmaking. Set up the casual public to thinking the opponent has a chance. He beat a bunch of c fighters ,some with names,some with fan friendly styles , some has beens .

There is a stereo type of the brother man. Its that they are loud ,obnoxious ,moronic, cheaters, along with
A false sense of superiority and they dont pay child support. They are mostly hustlers and drug dealers .

They bust a drive by, they curse often ,they have a high rate of black on black crime. So in essence they are looked at as uncaged animals who cant be trusted.

You have your few who walk a straight line and a few who try to seperate themselves and live normal and cut themselves from the cloth. But like i said, 80 percent ruin it for the other 20 percent.

No disrespect, its just being honest.
You walk by a group of 4 black guys at night anywhere and most peoples first thought is , they might try and mug me.
