So why did JMM fight Chris John for 30k instead of Pac for 750k in '05?

Do we really need to know what it means? I didnt know so have had to look it up, I dont have a definitive answer for you, its a word that is offensive in certain context and when said by certain people, much like any other 'euphemism' that denotes colour or race(didnt find Miron Langs definition of it)
Some people have taken offence to its use here so thats all we need to know.

Let's face it, just because people take offence doesn't mean it is necessarily racist, so I wanted to know what it meant as I couldn't find anything that really explained why.

I take offence to things people say on here in context of my own 'race', but I just generally ignore it, because most times people don't realize they're doing it and it's not maliciously intended (I'm not saying whether VD's is or not). Anyway I was curious as to how this term was racially derogatory, whether it was something the Spanish used to use or something.

I think VD's acceptance that it was or is unacceptable is proof enough that it wasnt said in jest. Agreed we cant stamp on everything that someone takes offence at, but if its race or colour we have to do something, its one of two lines you dont cross here.

I agree, I guess its just that I've seen people display attitudes that are far more racist than what VD just said, but because they don't use a slur or they hide it behind some 'hypothetical scenario', it kind of goes unchecked. But that's life, it's not that I really care that much, but I wanted to know if it was actually a racial slur or a kind of 'you people' thing

What's the other thing? I'm assuming it's a Lefty-style full on assault on someone's family??

Audley is great, how can you not love that delusional buffoon??!



Go to 2:20 - "My name is Audley, my name is Audley, Audley money..."

In all seriousness, away from pro boxing, I've got more time for him based on how he is as a person. He always looks to help out the Repton, and gave them dozens of free tickets to the Haye fight, and does go back there. Point being, even though he's shit & fights like a blind turtle, he hasn't forgot where he came from. In contrast, Haye doesn't do shit for Fitzroy Lodge where I box, except asks his brother to tell people (media) that he's always about helping the young fighters. Anyway, enough about Haye before Lyle steams in like a b*tch in heat
