Few fighters come from college or an etiquette training. A fighter will generally come from tough times, it is what it is.......Rockin'

Posters like you created these ridiculous standards and nuances to denigrate hof black boxers.Actually, Floyd fans praised his win over JMM as one of his best. Boasted about it for years. So when Loma beat Rigo...who many Floyd fans predicted would school Loma, suddenly it was a bad win over a smaller, older opponent. The circumstances were different. Floyd agreed to a catch weight and then didn't bother to make weight, and refused to be weighed on the day of the fight. Rigo could have had the fight at 126, but played himself by pricing himself out. There was only a seven pound difference between them on fight night.
When Teo won against Loma, all of the sudden Floyd fans came out of the woodwork to celebrate and ride Teo's ****. That comes from Loma hatred, and more importantly, Eastern-Euro hate. They did the same things with GGG and Kovalev. There is a distinct pattern of bias against EU fighters.
When they are used against Eastern European boxers, you claim it’s hate.
That simply doesn’t make any sense.
Loma fought cowardly and lost and got clowned. You guys have spent years creating memes and gifs when prominent black fighters lose. Why are you whining when it’s done to a fighter you like?
Maybe if you had shown some more respect to guys like Floyd, Roy and bhop rather than constantly denigrating their achievements then the forum would operate differently.
You and posters like you brought this to the forum. Don’t cry foul when the guys you like are subjected to the crap you created.Comment

Bullsheet... The ridiculous standards came from know nothings believing that the know the sport and posting their BELIEFS on the forum. The Ghost of Dempsey knows the sport. Do you?...........Rockin'

Yes people like ghost of Dempsey are who you’re talking about.
Example, he constantly denigrates Floyd’s resume.
Cool so posters take all the stuff he’s posted over the years and apply it to Loma and ggg and other Eastern European boxers.
How is that hate for Eastern Europeans?
If you put The same microscope on an Eastern European boxer’s resume as guys like him did prominent black boxers, what is the problem?Comment

it comes with the territory, once they become relevant both hype and hate grow fast, for all races...Hispanics root for their boxers
Eastern euros get praised by whites
Historically and even now we have more african american champs and yet they get trashed when they win over and over again...
'
When African Americans win there is always so damn excuse..and when they lose this board celebrates like they just won the damn lotto
but let African Americans do that with a Hispanic or an eastern euro and we are called racist...
THEY LITERALLY STILL TRY TO ATTACK FLOYD WHEN NONE OF THE FIGHTERS THEY SUPPORT HAVE DONE 1/10TH OF WHAT HE HAS DONE.
look at canelo, he is hispanic snd also gets a lot of hate, but thats what you get at certain level and is all good, is all part of the game...
by the way the hate towards floyd is big part of his success and im sure he embraces that..Comment

The majority of recognized legends are blacks, you know a lot of those Pro black boxing channels on youtube were calling manny pacquiao an honorary white man and said pacquiao represented white supremacy lol.
Thats when i started laughing.
They also said you are racist if you support loamchenko and golovkinsComment

Dude you're asking a bunch of racists if they're racists.
You already know the answer bud. All I can say is my eyes never saw it. The worst and most egregious act I have ever done as a boxing fan was being a fan of Mayweather, Ward, and Wilder. Through them I learned what hate really is.
Obviously I am a fan of other fighters too and others all have, had, and will have their detractors but it's nothing even close to what Mayweather, Ward, or Wilder have. I don't get anti-Rock **** like I do anti-Wilder ****.
They are nothing like one another, they fight, act, dress, conduct themselves, all very differently. Only two things they have in common are they are black and they are hated.
