Who do you expect to have "alternative" lifestyles?

This is life, though. You guys seriously cannot be squeamish over a gay issue or the LGBTQ issues in our sport?

Remember the guy Orlando Salido fought, Orlando Cruz? He was seen as a man of courage- This is something that was heralded and hailed.

There is no shame if you go either way, just that some give us moment to pause and it may be good or bad for humanity- Depending on how you look at it.

Where in this thread did I- or anyone else for that matter- decided to bash someone for their life choices?

I LIKE Oscar.... boxer and promoter.... lololol...... Griffith is a LEGEND from the Virgin Islands.... Corely is, well... Corely...

What I did think was unnecessary was when Kellie (formerly Frank) Maloney quit the boxing promotions and management when she decided to live her truth. That was not necessary for him to quit the sport.

There were a couple guys on here who condemned Orlando Cruz incessantly. One of them is long gone... the other rarely posts and has changed his ways.

No... makes no difference what a boxer's life choices are.

That being said, Orlando had an OK career, coming up short whenever he had a shot at a world title.

I’ll just say I don’t think advertising ones sexual preference is necessary. Just do what thou will as we all do.

I agree with that.

and I will just add I don’t condemn gays or whatever. I don’t agree with it but a lot happens in the world I don’t agree with. Boxing is more than entertainment to me, I love boxing as it is. I know race and nationality comes up quite often I say we just leave it at that and enjoy our sport

I love the nationality part of the sport. Just like the World Cup and the Olympics pit country against country.... boxing with its title fights involving boxers of different nations (especially rivalries) is great, IMO.

Boxing is entertainment. The lifestyle and background of a person IS part of the narrative. No? The Bronze Bomber being the only American HW Champion who comes from Alabama and also the last American HW to medal in an Olympics is a story unto itself along with his HELLACIOUS right hand!!!
