No apologies needed about laughing at my HeeHawmobile home statement, it was meant to be humorous because I think the same thing when I hear statements like that from Floyd; it's funny....but also insulting. My mobile home is awesomeThough I don't drink alcohol......yeeeehaw


And if Haye becomes HW champ I don't think black people will be getting too upbeat about it; it's still a crap division


Peace.
WHAT??! No it won't!! Haye will revive the division & personify Ali, Tyson, Frazier, Foreman, Holmes & Louis all in one mixed-race adonis. At least that's what Lefty tells me

I agree with you totally on the Chris Rock video, I thought that crossed the line. Here you would never get a respected boxer saying he felt better when he saw a white guy as his opponent. I lost any respect for Mark Breland when I saw it. I don't even think it was Chris Rock necessarily being racist as he was asking the questions & is a comedian so is bound to be controversial. But Breland & the other guys took the piss & were being racist & I see that as very different to Floyd's comment, which I think was stupidity rather than racism.

They sometimes go hand in hand. And I don't necessarily think Floyd is a whitey hater; whether he hates white people I don't know and tbh don't care. I just know the comment itself was racist and stereotypical. I mean really; how does being asked about MMA in an interview manage to make its way to beer drinking white boys fighting in a sport because they suck at boxing? Sounds to me like it wasn't an off hand remark out of sheer stupidity; more like he has given it lots of thought, though no research lmao. I'm sure Bilbo will come in and debate it wasn't racist like he did when Hopkins said he'd never let a white boy beat him.

Chris Rock might not be a racist; but he didn't mind letting his name be put behind a blatantly antagonistic, racist video; so even though he might not be one he sure seemed to think it was good comical fun and endorsed it just by participating. It's a fine line imo. I hadn't meant to bring up the Rock video; I just remembered not too long ago someone posted in a thread about it and it popped into my head.

Anyway, all I can do is hope for JMM to beat him; which is about as likely as Floyd joining the KKK
