    Based on what?

      Just look at the way they called Floyd fights, Andre's fights, Tim Bradley's fights, the list goes on and on for miles. You know the evidence is there. And Andre and Tim were upstanding people with great character, and they still treated them unfairly. Imagine if they did what Kovalev did, how would Jim call their fights then?

        Andre Ward and Tim Bradly are not racists, disagree with 7-8 here.
        Kellerman was a huge Whitaker fan. Early on in his career as ringside analyst he couldn't control himself, he was a Sweet Pea fanboy. He also defended that Butler guy who sucker punched Grant after Butler lost the fight. Said he should not be banned from boxing. Which white fighters has he unjustly praised throughout his career?

          Bullsh**...

          HBO jerked B-Hop for years. Look at his charge sheet. He was often called an inspiration for turning his life around.

          You’re looking for something that isn’t there. It always like you want them to be racist so you have something to whine about.

            Something about boxing brings all the racists out of the woodwork man...

            I think these guys see racism everywhere because they feel insecure about black Americans no longer being the dominant ethnicity and definitive “A side” in a much more diverse boxing scene is all it is. You would think the fact that damn near everybody’s GOAT and SGOAT are black would be enough.

            It’s the same insecurity thats making white right wingers lash out and “make America great (ie white) again”... LDBC misses the ‘good old days’ when most of the great heavyweights were African Americans, the same way a lot of white Americans miss the ‘good old days’ when people of color “knew their place.”

            **** changes... such is history. You can accept, adapt and thrive or be a miserable **** about it. Miserable people all look the same to me...

              Mainstream Boxing media racist = No.
              LDBCQT Boxing media racist? = Yes.

              Worst thing is about the LDBCQT racist media is they claim to be pro black, but they aint, they lying.

              They are Pro PBC black mainly. They have hated on and used racial slurs against black fighters and black pundits who choose to be honest. That means they are choosing to say it how they see it in regards to Boxing rather than just side 100% with a fellow black fighter because he is black and that's when we hear "uncle Tom" or "Coon" slurs.

              Where is the love for Crawford? Joshua? Whyte? Breland? Bradley? Ward? There is only hate.

                Ive always said regarding idiots like that guy. They see and call out racism when it's there but then they see and call out racism when it isn't there.

                    I've seen more racism from the LBDC than any other collective or group of people in boxing

                    ...

                    I've also never seen a fighter say "I'd never let a black man beat me" like we've seen from Bernard, Haney etc.
