Hopkins comment wasn't racist, get a life folks.

[ICB]

I think your being very biased yourself
THAT IS HOW PEOPLE SPEAK IN THAT PART OF THE US
DO YOU GET IT NOW
MAYBE,JUST A LITTLE
BERNARD IS OLDER THEN I AM,AND I GREW UP WITH PEOPLE TALKING LIKE THAT
DO YOU FREAKING GET IT YET

Explain what he did to Trinidad then ?? stop making excuse's for him, i have hardly ever heard a black boxer from any part of the USA say *I won't let a white man beat me* maybe just maybe Hopkins is a racist ??

What he did with Trinidad was in excusable,and it wasnt race,it was nationality,and even Bernard acknowledged it
Trinidad has either alot of black,or alot of Indian in him,he isnt white,not even close

It was excusable ??

So you don't think it was out of order what Hopkins done ??

[Big_Deuce]

what hopkins said was wrong.
JUSTIFIED by history or not, a blanketed comment like that does not belong in professional sports.

I see what your saying Liquid,but as Ive tried to point out,its not poverty as such,its how people talk there,and tribes
You dont want your a** coming home beaten in by a member of the other tribe
Its not even racism,where you try to oppress another person,which is really what racism is,or not wanting to associate with another race,which is also racism
You just dont want to let down your tribe,as it were,its almost a neighborhood thing,you dont want to let down the neighborhood by getting your a** kicked
Its just in Philly your neighborhood is decided by your race,so you just learn to say things like "white boy",and "black boy"
Hell everytime my grandfather got in to it legally he would tell me how he was getting his "jew lawyer",and he didnt even mean it as a bad thing,he was saying he had a better lawyer then the other guy
Christ,every time I was in lockup "hey white boy" was how theyd get my attention
If you dont know where he's coming from,dont say you know,because you dont

Right, it's not the same thing as denying a job or lynching someone for their race, but it is using someone's 'race' as a negative, which is racist. I have no idea what Hopkins' true feelings are about whites, but I would guess that it was more of a hype than anything. He's doing a poor impression of Mayweather, playing the bad guy and saying things that have never come out of Floyd's mouth.

You caught the in before excusable right?
Oh jesus I should have hyphenated,otherwise.....................
He went too far with Trinidad,and he admitted it himself
And he didnt say "white man",he said "white boy"
Reading comprehension,try it

Monkey your talking nonsense, if Calzaghe would of said the opposite to Hopkins you would have been all over him like a rash, but because one of your favorite fighters said it your making lame excuses for him. When someone says the comment Hopkins said he is disrespecting white people, because what he is saying is that a white man isn't good enough to beat him because of his skin color.

Hopkins comment is not excusable just because he is from Philly thats lame excuse. Where i live there is a lot of racist's so should i say racist comment's just because its part and parcel of where i live ??

[Trainer Monkey]

I know,Ill get vitally offended everytime someone breaks out the spanish rice,and Indian Summer will cause horrible conniptions for me,thats the way Im sure,every time a Southerner calls someone boy Ill have a fit,Ill act just like the photo negative of Al Sharpton on a bad day
Feh,its too much effort

Oh leave that crybaby crap by the door,if I got vitally offended every time some one called me a white boy,or vice a versa every time I said black,Id be more then a little deceased
Boo hoo hoo,the mean old Philly boy said white boy
Cry me a freaking river
As I tried to say before,if he'd have said honky,or peckerwood,well now,then its on,because he is being a racist snot then
Call me when he says either,because until then its a tempest in a tea pot

All you did was avoid the question and come out with more nonsense, alot of people have racism where they live, that is no excuse for them to say racist comment's because if we all thought that way then most of the world would be racist just think about it.

Thats how some people talk
I dont say the N word,but I will say black
Does it make me racist,hell no
If Joes that upset get him a diaper,because his ass wouldnt stay clean for five moments at the Blue Horizon otherwise

* I Wont Let White Man Beat Me* there is nothing wrong with saying black man or white man, i never said there was but the way Hopkins worded it. He was basically implying white people are inferior.

[Trainer Monkey]

Misquoted him again didnt you
He said"I'll never let a white boy beat me"
Get the freaking quote right if your going to be this bitterly offended
You havent quoted it right once
