    I don't like racial abuse but I don't think it's something a boxer should be fined for. If there is a written rule against it and a fine attacked to breaking that rule then then maybe a fine would be ok if Crawford broke that rule. I don't think there is such a rule and if no such rule exists then he should not be fined a single penny. Nobody should be able to fine him because they don't like what he said or it wasn't politically correct. This is boxing FFS. Fighting. Boxers don't have to not say anything bad about their opponents. Verbal racial abuse is not against the law as far as I know in boxing or outside of boxing. It's frowned on but it's not illegal. I think Crawford said he would beat the burritos out of him. To fine him for that would be ridiculous. These two boxers just hate each other. Good. Let them settle things in the ring in a grudge fight. No fines.

        Is Benavides still using Alex Ariza ? If so I expect him to Ko Crawford

          That's just TS for the kids then. Boxing is a hard rough sport and boxers are often hard rough men who should not have to worry about not offending anybody by what they might say. They are fighters and not role models for children. They get paid to fight hard and well not to talk nice.

            What did Benavidez say to his wife?

            I guess Benavidez' team came first and with the stereotypes first but it's not racist. It's just dumb low level trash talk.

            Racism would be like when Hopkins said he'd never lost to a white boy. Crawford didn't say anything hateful or to suggest he feels Mexicans are inferior.

              You seem to think Alex is a miracle worker who somehow turns average boxers into monster KO artists. He is just another strength trainer who usually gets fired by the better boxers. Somebody will likely get KOed but it won't be Crawford.

                Why would that be racial????

                I mean, only in the USA.

                A friend of mine at one point told a Mexican dude that was bothering him that he was going to take the chili out of him.

                Damn, you guys should fly out of the USA and chill out and enjoy life again.

                This political correctness is only setting the masses up so they can control them.
                F it

                    No. There's a thing in the U.S. called freedom of speech. You may not like or respect someone's opinion or words but they have the right to say whatever they want. If boxing gets pussified and pc I will turn my back on the sport. It's the fight game ffs. Talking **** is a part of the game.

                      Anyone who has used Ariza improves that’s a fact when PAC used him he had knock out bigger men when he stopped he couldn’t KO bigger men when Khan used him he had a more stable chin . When Madaina used him he battered Floyd like a pinta . Floyd uses Ariza against Madaina and beats him this time around and was able to take that monster right hand at the end of round 2 so yes I do think Ariza does give extra power durability when taking his magical protein shakes which are really steroid shakes
