espn Keith Olbermann calls for boycott of Floyd fight for domestic abuse

[Beanflicker]

He's also called for the boycott of the NFL draft due to a history of one of the prospects.

Really, all he's going to do for the May/Pac fight is bring more attention to it because it'll make people want to see Pac give the woman-beater his comeuppance.

I can't say that I fault him for his ethics, but he's not going to make a dent in the sales for that fight.

Keith Olbermann is a jackass.

Domestic abuse is horrible, I don't like Floyd Mayweather Jr., but for fucks sake did any of these ESPN bleeding hearts say shit about Tyson? Ali? Foreman?


Yeah so they can take their double standard and sit & spin....fuck ESPN and all their political bullshit. Same group was soooo happy Michael Sam got drafted, sooooo happy what's his name the basketball player came out as gay, and sooooo happy that Tim Tebow got blacklisted from the NFL. There are only a few ESPN personalities I can tolerate, Olbermann ain't one of them.

Point of clarification to my previous post.....Ali never beat women, but he cheated on his wives often which is why he's had 4 of them. Cheating on your wife is bad, it's not something that should be overlooked. Foreman hit anything that moved early in his career. Mike Tyson likewise. But again ESPN wants us to understand guys who make bad decisions, they want us to relate, they want us to stop and think about upbringing......unless they can just say this person is a monster and if they can do that, I hate it for you because they are the A#1 show in town and what they say goes.

My main point is these guys who build up athletes into legends will play favorites. Michael Jordan was a guy who got passes from the press, Ali ALWAYS got passes from the press, Mickey Mantle ALWAYS got passes from the press, Tiger Woods got passes from the press until recently.....he got treated pretty bad and it was ESPN that decided to go for broke against him. Now they use him as a talking point "Will Tiger ever win again?" "Will Tiger make the cut?" ....it's all ratings and navel gazing and self important sports journalist assholes!

ESPN is a company built on snobbery, elitism, and a desire for their company to pick winners and losers and it's shown by how their personnel act.



....just one example and she's a newb to that shithole

Yikes, what a bitch! She talks about grown men who play games, for a living, and that makes her an intellectual apparently Sports journalism in general shouldn't even be a thing imo.

Sports journalists are the dumbest most self important fuckwits on this planet. They are all incredibly biased, they are all card carrying commies, they are just horrible and that sad thing about them is they never fucking played the games they comment on.

Please Skip Bayliss, please tell me how to run a pick and roll.....you know, because you've done it all your life on the NBA level. Please Stephen A. Smith yell at Tim Tebow because he played QB for Denver helped them to the playoffs and won a playoff game because YOU know first hand what it's like to be a QB in the NFL.

And Colin Cowherd...FUCK THAT DOUCHEBAG! ESPN used to employ Jim Rome for fucks sake!!!! Jim Rome is a gigantic tool!!!

I find boxing a lot worse than most other sports. I always feel these guys never could make it in a bigger sport like soccer, NFL or NBA etc and just get away with boxing by throwing around boxing phrases and criticising fighters

"Id like to say one thing to Keith Olbermann."

"You will never be me."

"Now, open your mouth and say Ahh."
