LDBC Leader, 78Sports: “The Boxing Media is Racist, even the one’s who look black.”

First one, neither are white, second one both are white.



That doesn't matter anymore though, unless he's a fanboy of EVERY black boxer, he's a racist.

Elder Alvarez is not white, HBO dint cover the canelo/kovalev fight

Which is why I didn’t know WTF you were talking about. Forgot the Eleider fight. Also the first time I’d seen anyone refer to him as a “black fighter” since he lives and trains up here and the LDBC doesn’t give a **** about him. He’s lumped in with guys like Luis Ortiz and Erisansry Lara. Either not black enough, or not black until it benefits the fan base

My point is that it's obvious Jim Lampley shows extreme favoritism towards certain fights that impacts the way he calls a fight? How hard is this to admit???

And people wonder why Wilder gets criticized for giving this guy the only exclusive interviews...

TIMESTAMPED! CLICK TO PLAY!

That Dude is always paranoid bringing up race

Because you're saying the man is racist and cheerleads every white fighter over every black fighter. Because everything is always a ****ing race thing and it's a serious cop out.

I did not say racist, I said unconscious bias. There is a difference. Look it up. The proof is there, you just don't want to acknowledge it. In almost every recent fight, he tends to favor the guy who looks more like him (or the house fighter in other circumstances). Pacquaio vs. Bradley. Pacquiao vs. Floyd. Ward vs. Kovalev. GGG vs. Jacobs. Hopkins vs. Pavlik. Hopkins vs. Calzaghe. Hopkins vs. Kovalev. Floyd vs. Ortiz. Floyd vs. Cotto. Donaire vs. Rigo. The list goes on forever.

Let's also not forget that he had a ranking of the most boring fighters in boxing on his show the fight game. Guess who tended to be on the list? Mayweather, Rigondeaux, Lara. Sometimes Wladimir, but he was the exception. Now that I think about it, that is a little bit worse than unconscious bias.

That sort of list alone means we need to have some sort of alternative media to call this bull**** out.

Ideally people acknowledge change. Why do the LDBC kids bring up Lampley or HBO to justify current times...

Ok let's go to present times. How come Demetrius Andrade is "boring," but when Tyson Fury jabbed and clinched and ran his way to a draw against Wilder the first time, it was the greatest thing ever?

Lol. That’s easy. Canelo was stripped the IBF and GBP made Kovalev. Kovalev’s belts was heavier than Andrade’s
