1) The heavyweight division is weak. It's the weakest I can ever remember it being. And has been for quite some time.
2) GGG has yet to fight an elite fighter at his own weight or above. And shows no inclination to do so in the near future. That is a fact.
3) A way past prime Roy Jones Jr had Calzaghe on his ass in RD 1 of their fight. I am guessing a prime Jones does a lot better.
It is not racist to feel this way or say these things. I know many folks who say these things and they are all from differing walks of life.
No one should tolerate Floyd's own antics, which include some pretty vile and racist things.
But that doesn't mean he is not also a victim of racism, especially when it comes to how he is often treated.
Fortunately for Floyd, he found a way to take advantage of that racism and have it translate into monetary gain.
I don't disagree but don't you get tired of whining? Always looking for racism in a situation? I sincerely hope you were joking when you compared what Jack Johnson went through to what Floyd is going through. That is an insult to Johnson and every other Black person who lived in that time period. Questioning a man for beating up women is a far cry from arresting a man because he had a White girlfriend. When did questioning someone's motives or career choices become paramount to racism?
No, I am not joking.
Clearly, Floyd lives in a different time and many things that happened to Johnson would not happen to Mayweather today.
But some of the sentiment, some of the feeling is very similar and familiar.
And we who love boxing, one of the most democratic sports known to man where race don't mean jack inside the ropes?
Seriously, KBB is one of the most racist, insecure, trolls I've ever seen on a forum.
the guy had a chip on his shoulder simply because he couldn't fathom how some americans can support Paqcuaio or root for him over mayweather, especially black americans, who he felt should all be supporting mayweather just cause of the same skin color.
And he will make a thread about how a blown-up Juan Manuel Marquez could have possibly beaten a prime welterweight Delahoya just to make Floyd's victory over Marquez seem more impressive.
.. oh wait, he already made that retarded thread a while back.

There is no other way to put it.
