    The social media buzz is comical. 'Hope Fury batters the racist' Short memories some of these Facebook boxing experts.
    He is more concerned about John Smith the butcher than watching the full speech.
    Yes, I have watched the 2 minute video. John Smith was the man who might have nixed the Blair tyranny too, but alas his heart broke. He made excellent pork scaratchings.

    I don't buy into the notion of boycotting for no good reason. Britain is one of the least racist countries in the world, so I don't really know what his problem with John Smith is.

    Many black people live good lives by just not doing what their parents did if bad or by doing what their parents did if good. It is a personal choice to go off the rails though and for that I do support Joshua stating as such.

    The boycott part just makes no sense and the same with the protests in general unless understood from a radical Marxist position. Statues in the UK have nothing to do with a personal rivalry between 2 men likely gone a bit wrong. Where is the racism in that incident? Has that been proven? If not, then what is it all about?

    Scaratching is not a word. I meant scratching.

    @SlimTrae - The UK is nothing like the US. Joshua hasn't been vilified by the media (zero criticism) or vast majority of the UK. There's a tiny minority, in the overall scheme, on social media calling him racist, and I repeat, they would have done the same regardless of the speech, just a picture with a BLM t-shirt would have been enough. Eddie Chambers, an African American, exposed Joshua's "black is the superior race" comments, it didn't make a ripple. It doesn't offend me.

    From what i've seen from your own country, maybe Joshua's speech would have resonated more with "your people" looting and attacking their own neighborhoods/businesses? Opportunist scumbags, regardless of whose "people," don't give a shit whether they're wreaking mayhem on corporate giants or their grandmother.

    We need to stop feeding people - every person regardless of colour/ethnicity - envy, paranoia and hate. You're not going to be Michael Jordan, it's OK, you can still have a fantastic life.

    Very rare to see a post from you! Sir we are in agreement. Somewhere I stated to @Gandalf that I know nothing of what is happening over there-let alone about the John Butcher shop. Don't expect you to see or read (everything) I write. Just lettin ya know we are in agreement! (US & UK are different in racial issues)
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!

    AJ has lost loads of fans over his racist remarks, you only have to look on social media to see that the vast majority are routing for Fury to beat him.

    I wonder if he will go to Saudi Arabia and lecture them when unlike the UK they do have serious human rights problems for women, gays and don't really allow many Anglican churches to pop up.

    You are right though, looking even at The Sun, most of the commenters think he is a bit silly. Maybe they are all racist as they are not only silent but vocal (Silence is violence apparently). Maybe they need to be disenfranchised.

    But you still get the job. You still get the loan. You still get the house. You still get the car. You can still travel anywhere in the world and racially speaking you'll have zero problems.

    So tell me how is AJs alleged racism affecting whites ?

    Plus I find this ironic when race is more important than money to many whites. I'm pretty sure you know that whites will hire whites with a criminal record than black ppl who are clean.

    I'm pretty sure you know that.

    If black people produced a car, most whites would not buy that car, no matter what. Lets just start talking real.

    start talking real? start talking for yourself
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    Master, why on earth have you liked this post? It is full of nonsense.

    Before the 2008 crash plenty of black people and indeed white people, who really should not have been getting loans, did indeed get their loans. And what happened? It crashed the economy. We should not give loans easily to people.

    Also, what is this thing about getting a job? Dennis you have said several times that you do well, so who exactly is denying you this mysterious job? Have you lost the job?
    Do you honestly think people think about who made the car? I am sure plenty of black people work in car factories and people still buy the car. If you want a black car company then maybe a black person could set one up. I would buy it if it was affordable and efficient, but please no bling as that is distasteful.
