Racism– a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one’s own race is superior and has the right to rule others.

I personally cannot stand racist people, whether you’re Black, White, Asian, doesn’t matter it sickens me and no one should be allowed to get away with it or deserve a pass.
During his Los Angeles media interviews for the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Shane Mosley fight, Floyd Mayweather Jr. enlightened us with more of his intelligent logic, this was the same press conference that reportedly banned Filipino media from asking Mayweather Jr. any questions regarding Manny Pacquiao.
“When you see somebody from another race come into the sport and make a little bit of noise, that’s abnormal, if you see a Mexican or Black American dominate the sport that’s normal” said Mayweather Jr.
He says this at 1:35 of the video

(Interestingly enough, Floyd refused Philippine media to interview him, but was still fielded with Manny Pacquiao questions by the non-Filipino press in the video)
It’s obvious who he is referring too in the video, you would have to be hiding under a rock to not know he was taking shots at Pacquiao and Filipino fighters, Mayweather even told R.A the Rugged Man (we all know the Philippines has the best enhancing drugs)
Floyd Mayweather Jr. had previously took a shot at UFC fans during a CBS interview saying:
“In boxing, we know who’s dominating. Black fighters and Hispanic fighers is dominating in this sport. And this is not a racial statement but there’s no white fighters in boxing that’s dominating, so they had to go to something else and start something new.”

I guess all the current White European champs and top contenders dominating the heavier weights are abnormal, or the little Asian fighters who dominated the lower weight classes in the past were abnormal?
So, by Floyd’s logic, I guess Tiger Woods is not great because only White guys dominate Golf?
All of this is coming from a guy who believes the Philippines has the best performance enhancing drugs, and don’t forget his Uncle Roger Mayweather’s history lesson on the Filipinos being bulletproof during the Philippine-American war.
The Mayweather family logic is purely ignorant and embarrassing to the sport of boxing, it’s hard to believe he has some die hard supporters, I guess birds of a feather do flock together after all.
Floyd Mayweather always cries about how people dislike him for being an opinionated Black man, and how he has so many haters who are just jealous of his success and wealth, but it’s obvious that the only one who is prejudice, jealous and a hater, is Floyd Mayweather Jr., he seems envious of Manny Pacquiao’s accomplishments.

I am an avid fan of boxing and video games. My first fight of memory was watching Prince Naseem Hamed destroy Kevin Kelly. I enjoy all aspects of the sport. My favorite current boxer is Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao. My favorite boxing match is Diego Corrales vs. Jose Luis Castillo 1. I love watching boxing on Pay-Per-View more than being there live because you can really enjoy and watch the action from the best view.
