legend Roy Jones speaks on how america treats black boxers and the Ward vs GGG beef

Hope Solo:
1) She plays soccer, a sport far more popular and widespread than boxing.
2) Her fame came from playing in the Olympics, and World cup. Far more coverage than Floyd has ever received. It's the Olympics and World cup... again, a FAR MORE popular sport than boxing.
3) Her endorsement deals and everything came before her criminal charge. She doesn't have a history of crime. Plus, she's an attractive woman. Women receive far more leniency than any man. Not to mention, this only just happened in what, 2014?
Ronda Rousey:
1) She's a woman dominating a sport that is generating good views and has hype. Most women love her just because she's a woman showing, "girl power".
2) She was undefeated, and on a KO streak
3) She's won most of her fights quickly
4) Again, she's a woman. Women receive more leniency. Especially when you are perceived as attractive (although I don't think she is).
- As far as I can tell, she's been accused of domestic violence only one time, recently, and she has had her endorsements before this as well. Not to mention, I believe she hit her boyfriend because he took nude photos of her without her knowing? Or something like that...Comment

Because society doesn't take charges of domestic violence seriously if the agressors aren't male.
It doesn't matter if *****es are mma champions, they're supposed to be victims of domestic violence, not the opposite
it's the same with ****. good luck trying to convince the police that a woman ****d you. unless you're underage, they'll laugh at youLast edited by lopetego; 11-16-2015, 12:49 PM.Comment

You'll find nothing for men in terms of **** clinics, and domestic abuse support (for men) is practically nonexistent.Last edited by UNBIASED BOXING; 11-16-2015, 12:49 PM.Comment

[B]When Ward was active he didn't get a lot of hype or publicity
Every black athlete doesn't act like Broner or Floyd, its easy to single out guys who act a fool sometimes, Ward is the complete opposite, hadn't lost since middle school and still nobodies knows him
If he was white, he'd probably be considered the best p4p fighter in the world and have endorsements out the wazoo.....Look at GGG he aint beat nobody elite and the public wants people to believe he is top 3 p4p
Rousey hasn't even fought 15 times and she was supposed to be unbeatable, the best fighter in the world, the fighter of the year yadda yadda, if she was black she'd be just another good fighter, While Floyd is 49-0 has beaten more champions and has more title defenses than she has fights and still gets destroyed by the media whether he acts an azz or not
You must be white, or ignorant if you think race doesn't play apart in who gets endorsements or not....the average joe has enough trouble without discrimination finding a job and keeping one.
so you think they'll throw millions of dollars at a lot of black athletes, which their are a lot of, when they have you go through the gauntlet for minimum wage???
White priveledge exists bro...its sad to say but I see it everyday in americaComment

I don't give a care about football nor do I pay attention about anything that happens.
You sound like one of those salty ****s that blames everyone else for their problems.Comment

In Ronda's book she admitted to crippling her ex-boyfriend for taking a nude picture of her. On a related note,rumor is that Ronda has a stinky vag and squeals like a piggy.Comment
