Hopkins says he's ignored because he's black, also brags he ruined Pavlik's life

It's so ridiculous when guys play the race card in boxing.

Yeah, you gotta be white to make it in boxing. Mayweather, De La Hoya, Pacquiao, Tyson, Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, Ray Leonard, Ali, Joe Louis... they never drew a dime in the sport. Everyone knows you have to be white to make money in boxing... :roll eyes:

Bernard has had one of the most spectacular careers in boxing history, but the fact remains he has a style that doesn't appeal to mainstream audiences, and unlike Mayweather, he doesn't have that coveted "0" and the "mic skills" to make people give a shit.
