Orlando Cruz: gay, but I'm also a boxer This is my time

[Bennyblanco]

No 'ring' jokes yet?

[hurlock]

Danny I had a wind up with your for being over PC ,right wing ,wishy washy, fight any argument ott type of guy!!!
None of my post suggest I'm homophobic!!
If you like cock,fair play to you & don't hide it be proud of who you are is my message.

If love to be gay I'd be minted & to think if women were like us in the sex drive dept!!! It would be epic!ł

I shagged a lesbian once, It was the first time for her , she just wanted to know what it was like . She said after , it was the most disgusting , vile thing she had ever done .
She also said , that being a lesbian , was normal for her , and letting me shag her, was her version of having a shot at being gay , so based on that , she said i must be gay for shagging a gay woman .

Boy was i confused , but it was worth it she was , still is a cracker , so i told her , if her mates feel the same way, they can have a go , but only the ones who look like her , the fonzie look alikes , naw , , i would feel gay shagging a woman who looks like a man , , wonder how i would feel if i shagged a man who looks like a woman ,

Told you i was confused

The only people offended by his sexuality are people who believe in deities, funny innit.

Respect to Cruz but Salido is one hard ba$tard would be an impressive win if he can pull it off have no idea how good he is will find out Sat night thats for sure.

Salido will stop him.

Yeah the comments on here show you just how brave he is to come out, he's an easy target to be mocked and laughed at...and there will be a lot of hate heading his way too.
There's hardly anyone in sports who will come out and admit they aren't straight - not even tennis! - let alone the ultimate macho sport: boxing.
But it's dark ages stuff really, all too easy to come out with the cock jokes etc, so it's good to see boxing take a lead here - it doesn't really matter does it ? The boxing world now knows Emile Griffiths was gay, 40 years after his career was over, and after his death this year, but we can all agree, he was one of the Greats.

I remember John fashunu brother Justin who came out years ago .... he had lot drama and ended up taking his own life...

It's not PC your homophobic and gay simple you make boxing fans look like pudenda and are exactly the reason boxing will also be behind other sports

You're basically a troll behind a keyboard with a fake alias banging on about people's gender, orientation and race thinking you're hard when you are in fact the opposite.

[SNG]

Is being homophobic and gay like being a self-hating jew?

[Alba]

If Cruz wins, and his managed well he could make a mint.

Wether the boxing hardcore like it a Gay boxer is marketable and could bring in a new crowd to the sport and the novelty of it is what will drive it .

He has no banter he classes it as trolling & then becomes abusive.

To be fair, banter is for cunts with no sense of humour.

[banjo]

The great thing about threads about gay or female boxers is that it shows a fair amount of the forum populace would fit in well in Pakistan.

It may well be, unless you're a woman or a gay.

Like I said, I'd have a right laugh, fornicate everyone else

Why is it 'brave'?

If you live in Iran and you come out you're not brave, you're stupid.

If you live in the US or UK and you come out you're not brave, you're an attention seeker.

Edit: I don't mean if you come out to your friends and family, I mean if you make a big song and dance about it and shout it from the roof tops.

He is making a stand, there must be lots of gay boxers, it's obvious statistically there must be, but he's the first world title challenger to ever be open about it - where he goes, others will follow (not literally, like some sort of giant gay conga) and so his stance is important - and before the jokes come, I don't mean standing with one hand on his hip.

I'm trying to make a serious point, but just anticipating the inyourendo...oops, I mean innuendo.

I want one of those, it sounds fun


Seriously, I am pleased that someone as thoughtful and articulate as Cruz has come out, he really does himself proud in the interviews I've read - a class act as a person.

[stevedoc]

It's crazy the amount of homophobic and racist vermin on this forum

x2 to all the above. My sister is gay and the amount of personal stuff she's had to work through due to fear of bad attitudes is awful. Cruz is brave and I wish him all the best.

Yep vile fvcking vermin esp Hurlock who racist and homophobic got something against anyone's who different. First calling Irish people potato lovers now this. Cruz is more of a man, much more, all the best to the lad[/quote]
i'm irish and i love my potatoes......
