He shouldn't have said it. Trying to go the black power route that Wilder did and look how well that worked out for him. Love to know what Hearn thinks about such language?

If Haney and Tank Davis are the next big stars, boxing is in a lot of trouble. They aren't exactly Ali in the oratory department. Teofimo Lopez could be the saviour of boxing if he can take Lomachenko out and go on a nice reign. Lomachenko himself probably has the beating of Haney or Davis for at least 2 more years. Davis looks like a poor mans Judah so im not too concerned. Haney has faster feet than Loma and will certainly give him problems judging off the Campbell performance. Teofimo will come to bully Loma, stand his ground and catch him with counters. The problem is that Loma usually has that style of fighter covered in all departments.

Am I the only person who really isn't all that bothered by this?

They get hit in the head for a living. Some of them are smart motherfuckers, and most of them aren't exactly rocket scientists. So he said something that most people in his community think anyway. So what?

Everyone should move past the "oh if a white fighter said it..." thing, stop being purposely offended, and just not give a sh*t about it. It's just some words. Since when did words like that hurt you in any way other than your feelings?

This is a boxing forum. I thought you lot were hard.

tbh aren't all these classic 'hardmen' actually sensitive as f@ck? like, the type who if you accidentally just look at them they will go apesh!t?

it's the same with a certain someone who calls everyone snowflakes but then has a hissyfit over everything

very very few ppl who can actually not be bothered at all, and they certainly aren't of the hardman model

If you saw Haneys last fight you'd know he isn't going to be no star.

Just because these young lightweight prospects are American they get way more press/attention than they deserve.

Strange, racist comment from a Floyd wannabe nobody trying to get noticed. He wouldn't have a prayer against Lomachenko.

This will probably get buried in the same pit as AJ's "disgrace to the superior black race" quote, Dillions b sample and Barry's Epstein connection.

The main prospects at 135 right now are Lopez, Garcia and Haney. Tank Davis ran from Lomachenko and shouldn't be in the discussion until he grows balls. Haney is right up there, he's going to be hard to beat with that stinker style. Taylor and Prograis are waiting for them at 140 so I'd imagine we will see them stay at 135 for the time being. So far Lopez is the only one of them who seems to have the confidence to take on Lomachenko.

Think it"s funny? People dying? Again, evidence please, you sorry excuse for a wankstain.

It is estimated that 13 million people worldwide will die from starvation from the lockdown measures put in place. You do the math girlfriend.

In Norway where I live, 170 people have died. The average age of these 170 people is 89.

1 million people are now unemployed out of a country of 5 million

Yeah Ok. But Jose Benavidez Jr and Frankie Gomez were supposed to be the stars of boxing at welterweight and look what happened to them.

Erickson Lubin and Amir Imam were gonna be P4P stars apparently

American prospects get overhyped too early .
