    I don't see anything wrong with Anthony Joshua saying that people from that black and Caribbean community should support their own businesses. I remember when I was an undergraduate student it came out that Israel had invested hundreds of millions of dollars in South Africa, and all of us college students by the hundreds, and it was even in the University newspapers, boycottedt all Israeli businesses downtown. I don't see anything wrong with what Anthony Joshua said.

    The Afro-Caribbean community should definitely support themselves, lift each other up, and if that takes boycotting white businesses then so be it

    You don't see me going into any Chinese businesses or shops. Not really sure what you mean by that. Care to explain?

    It is just false equivalence. These guys El Kabong included are just looking for justification for their own bigotry. It is a kind of virtue signalling that tries to prove that they are the big man in all of this. They talk about a heavyweight champion of the world as though they have achieved more than him. It is ludicrous stuff from mentally very little men.

    I'm sure I don't know what you buy or where you shop which is part of why I asked. The other part of why I asked is to see what you believe is worthy of boycotting. I hope that answers your question and if not please let me know and I'll respond with a better answer.

    I think you were trying to say that most things are made in China so that it will be hard to boycott it? That is true most things are made in China. And that case it might be impossible to completely boycott their stuff.

    as for what is worthy of boycotting? I guess that is up to the individual really

    Def taken a bit out of context by just glossing over he was in fact reading another persons statement and adding in some response. Like putting the end to black youth gang culture . Irony is that he agreed 'all lives matters' and Stateside that's being labeled a major no no by the same BLM protest . Can't please everyone, shit sometimes you can't even please anyone.

    Had to see what all the uproar was about so I clicked on the link. Found a very short video clip so had to rely on the written account.

    So.... what's with all the anger being directed at AJ? Flipping the script and making suppositions about what if Fury said something similar are moot. It wasn't the umpteenth a white man was murdered by a black cop without anything having been done about it. So yeah... a little frustration is understandable.

    Or is it that we can accept a black athlete talking about his left jab, but he's not allowed to speak his mind on social issues?

    Just trying to get a handle on things here.

    Found this earlier and looks to be the complete 'speech'. Honestly as mentioned earlier this may have more to do with him participating in the first place and less about the chopped cherry picked line. He gets smug about being a 'hustler' sure and seems a bit odd a multi billionaire surrounded there but imo hardy a racist rant ffs.

    They are just looking for justification for their own blatant racism. For years it has been tolerated here on the forum and they are desperately looking for an excuse to not change. They are like kids who never even really graduated to high school, let alone from it.

    Look at the disdain they show toward any kind of opportunity to learn or grow. They think change is a weakness.

    those pushing race are the problem
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    It was racism and he is ASSUMING racism in the case of a crime in America which is not proven as racism and suggests avoiding white businesses in a country that is basically a white country not even connected with the murder. What does the local white butcher have to do with anything and is he wrong if he factually believes more whites are killed than blacks by police in the UK? Does evidence or logic not matter at all? How would that not be pointless discrimination against the butcher?

    Joshua was admitting there that he is a 'hustler' too. It is only boxing that saved him. Take that away and where is he? Not such a good place. Good on him for using that chance, but most who try won't go that far as like with anything you usually need to be doing it from a very young age like Calzaghe or Hatton. It is something we work on all our lives like we do in classrooms with our minds. It is more likely that a stable life will come from doing well in the classroom and choosing a reasonable career from the basis of a healthy loving family. That is where it all starts. Working on something when young and molding the mind towards a goal. That is how we grow.
