Black boxers matter

Its not all of them, and fighters like spence are popular. But hes got a point though with the recent nfl protests, and mayweather and broner have blamed oppression in the past too. Am sure ive seen another one whining about how they should be a bigger star, might have been andrade. Away from races, im fed up in general of people always whining and blaming the system for their problems. If beyonce windmill wants respect he should stop choking women and not price himself out of fighting joshua.

Listen, bro, I hate racism and anyone who is a racist. I've had bad, real life experiences with it.

I knew you were a racist, but I still used to like you, despite your hate for Davis and Spence, before you even knew them. I gave you Green Ks, even when I knew you were a racist. Why? Because I knew you were a nice guy and it wasn't that deep with you.

Anyways, don't jump to conclusions about calling people names.

I feel sorry

What i am going to do with this poor guy who has a net
worth of 16m dollars only? He is unhappy! I have half a million myself, travelled all over the world, speak eight languages, my son is senior scientist at Google and my daughter professor at Stanford. I am ashamed but i feel happy. You know something DEO? Study some trade and stop beating people and crying, after you will lose your dough like Holly, who was by far better than you...For what?

Honestly I don't really care, this whole site is a big race-war - never cared enough to neg someone, let alone report them.

MMA sites are so different from boxing sites in terms of racism - it's basically non-existent compared to here

Because almost all the good fighters and fans are white, right? Maybe that's why.

No, it doesn't matter what race a fighter is, you see everyone giving props to the guys who deserve it mostly.

I suppose the main difference is that the UFC is a company and can't allow racism as it would damage the image of the company, whereas boxing is all about race and nationality - and it reflects in the comment sections of MMA sites and boxing sites

For instance, Mighty Mouse Johnson is a black American and most people agree that he is p4p#1, and most fans really like and respect the guy -would that ever happen on here?

I don't know anything about UFC and will never be interested in it, but I can't imagine a world where UFC fans are more enlightened than boxing fans.

Bear with my ignorance. I thought almost all UFC fighters and fans were white, no? I was told that.

Maybe there are other UFC fans who can answer that.

Nope, not true at all.

I know Bob Arum liked to say that because he was an old bitter man who lost to the Fertita Brothers and Dana White.

Boxings an international sport, the power is increasingly moving away from America. North Americans are used to making up their own sports where they are dominant and get all the adulation. Don't understand the concept of a worldwide sport.

Money really has not much to do with it dum dum.

As a matter of fact, if your a black fighter in the U.S. the more u make is usually a barometer for how hated u really are.

Look at Floyd for example, while he's the richest ever, it's because soooooo many white racist haters paid for the opportunity to see him lose.

It's a great example of how racist hate backfired, and made a Black man very rich !

People that enjoy were buying ppvs. I did at least when i was in US, along with other american friends and everyone got along.

Floyd wasnt the cleanest boxer but he did what he supposed to. All of my friends here in Ukraine or Russia would of buy his fights as well for 80-100$, and our $ ratio is sick here.

so no, i dont think, silly haters would buy his ppvs...silly haters whether they white or black, they occuppy BS and twitter, the most they can do

Pretty sure the most respected American fighters of all time are black. ****** Beyonce Windmiller back to crying over nothing.
