Comments Thread For: Devin Haney Says He is No Racist, Rejects Discrimination of Any Kind

[Mrbamladen]

Idk why......but I just love it when white people try to tell black people what's racist. I laugh hard. If laughter truly is the best medicine.....i could cure cancer if i had it. Looks like Haney will become a star when he goes to the UK and humiliates Campbell in front of his country. Start with that white boy. Lol

Uneducated arrogance at its finest

[lion33lit]

Another black fighter with an inferiority complex with white fighters. Just like Hopkins got his ass kicked by every white fighter he faced after saying that, Haney will get tuned up by Luke Campbell and Lomachenko.

He can talk all he wants, but he ain’t doing **** about it, just like these donkeys from the inner cities.

WOW! An official RACIST letting his DULL light SHINE!!

[Corelone]

He was promoting himself and making sense. What happened? Now he's broke down and babbling.

[elnick]

His answer is a rather poor one, however he is still immature at 21. Don't really know him, but how does he act around people is what is important.

I'm going to sue his ass.

Go ahead...see you in the court dear Internet warrior😆

Boxingscene Staff, please do your homework before posting articles with literal misinformation.

“Haney's comments were a mirror image of an incident that took place in 2008, when Bernard Hopkins said he would "never let a white boy beat me" during a face to face confrontation with Joe Calzaghe, who won a unanimous decision when the two boxers finally met in the ring“

Joe Calzaghe did not win a unanimous decision over Bernard Hopkins. He won a hotly contested Split Decision.

Please refer to your own articles.

It wasn't a hotly contested split decision, he got beat. Hopkins was having a hard time keeping up with the Calzaghe pace, remember the fake low blows so Hopkins could buy time? He got out worked period

Dumb, racially offensive statement by Haney.

A white fighter would be crucified if he said the equivalent so Haney deserves to catch flak for it too.

Don't be racist. It's pretty simple.

Haney made a dumb statement, but I don't believe he's describing the WORTH of a completely capable race - a race thats proven their worth economically & culturally for thousands of years - Haneys talking about "body mechanics" that white people tend to "settle" for....not an inferior level of being (Hitler on the other hand....).

I always joke that I'd love to train any determined white person to be "slick" in boxing - not that I think their "incapable." There ARE white people SLICK in boxing (I can name em'), but I've concluded not that many - WHY? they're usually comfortable with the "basics" or "fundamentals"!

That is NOT a racist statement. To be an ATG you've got to have more! In a "team" effort mastering fundamentals would be more than OK. "SLICKNESS" on the other hand is "needed" in boxing, and can be "taught" to ANY race - especially if one is "humble" enough to learn it....I'll admit though, some (individuals from ANY race) arent gonna pick it up no matter how much you show em' - and thats OK! Boxing SHOULDNT be for everyone...lol....RESPECT to you for your knowledgable post....

Whites "carry forward" an EVIL ATTITUDE just like ANY RACE - many of them THRIVE on their WICKED attitudes!! ...BLACKS don't have the leisure & pleasure of taking RACISM & THIEVERY on the level of many WHITES - blacks DO run with their embarrassing take on racism though - many shoot themselves in the foot before even trying to get ahead...

Again, WE are known for our "statements," on these sights. DEVIL WHITES are known for their ACTIONS on a plateau UNKNOWN to MOST blacks - and lets not forget, whites also are known for some of the CRAZIEST RACIST statements KNOWN to mankind....statistics aside....I LOVE em' ALL!!!

True talk bro. The real devils are the ones who propagate their devilish deeds as something acceptable to the world and are never apologetic. Instead the attention will be diverted to petty commitments. They are quick to call others names.

Adrien Broner was da last street n1g9a left !

Lmao...he really was,even the chino and mikey beatdowns couldn't take the street out his arse,AB bout that life! Honestly,as a idiotic thing it was to say,I think it was just him trying to build his profile,albeit in the most moronic way to go about it. I really dont see the hype behind him either. Loma obviously gives him that work but I believe Teofimo,Campbell do the same. He mentioned Mikey at 140,which ain't happening, but mikey beats his ass down too,along with Ramirez....interesting to see how his career unfolds,until he beats someone worth of note,the little hype he has is far from warranted at the moment.
