He has all kinds of people from different nationalities/ethnicities under his promotional company and in his team. It’s no different from Manny Pacquiao saying I want to help Filipino fighters grow. Get over yourselves and stop race-baiting. If you dislike the guy so much stop paying so much attention to him, lol.
      Not that I disagree with your overarching point, your example is not really the same thing. He didn’t say American fighters, he specifically said black. Nationality is not the same as ethnicity.

        He said Black kids because he knows the majority of black kids need help and don't have "spare" money to pay for it. The majority of white kids parents have the money to get them pro level help at most anything ... even enough to bribe their way into the college they want.

        Most black kids parents don't have excess money for many things. Last hired/first fired/first layed-off, etc are true and real life obstacles. That said, I'm sure if a white kid needed and wanted Floyd's help he would help them. Many might want his help, but he numbers are exponential how many would actually "need" it vs black kids.

        Ok, put away the reverse-racism poker cards ...

          Yet when “white america” wants to support “their own” ahead of others, it’s called systemic racism. See, what Floyd is doing/saying is the same thing a lot of blacks complain about whites doing, albeit on a small rather insignificant level. The principal is the same tho. People that really care about racism, not just the aspects that affect them, are trying to close that gap of the 2 separate americas you speak of.

            Been like that throughout American history. You guys went beyond that to restrict us in every way you can. You progressed as you set us back a century. Don't ever compare.

              Why not be willing to help any color? Why not be willing to love all people?
              These people are racist, whether anyone wants to admit it or not.

              The IF Bullshït that you just wrote has been a reality in the US since the first batch of ****** were brought here 400 years ago.

              Everything was and still is institutionally owned anc controlled by WHITES. I could give you a long list of historical facts but I’m not sure if you are actually curious with your question or if you’re just those racists that refuses to acknowledge facts.

                  This is why Farakan said you can't distinguish between the white man and the Azak**** ***. Still getting played like a fiddle.

                    They are not rivals. Its not like Tank would fight Haney if the fight presents itself now. So not sure what the issue is here.

                      “You guys”? I’m not American, nor are any of my ancestors.

                      Also, it’s perfectly fair to compare from the standpoint of a divisive mentality. The result is obviously much different, but suppose you had the ability to even the score? If the mentality is us vs them, where does it end? Is there ever enough? Your country is fractured almost beyond repair, and the identity politics from both sides is a big part of the problem.
