Mayweather racist?
 

I think he is, disrespecting the Mexican heritage by wearing that sombrero and even a Mexican flag shorts....he has been talking shit to Oscar in all the interviews real badly....i think he's an asshole too...i believe even his wife didnt feel like coming to the fight...he was there with only his kids....eitherway a good fighter though! Cant wait for the rematch....

No, the guy is doing all for the show...

A week ago he said UFC was bullshit, then apologized 90 minutes after his fight.

I think all of that shit talking worked wonders for the fight promotion. It should continue through the re-match.

I bet the sombrero and Mexican flag shorts was Oscar's idea. It was a Golden Boy Promotion fight after all.

nope. he did that as kind of an omage to his uncle who use to come out like that and earned the title "The Mexican Assassin" for beating up on Mexican fighters. Essentially the messege was, "you're about to be assassinated".

:2 cents:

Oscar De La Hoya is a great guy. No need to be dissin him.

The fight was the worst.

it was after all cinco de mayo. dude was being disrespectful nor 'racist'

can we all agree that he's the best pound for pound now....:1orglaugh

i just wanna see him not retire and fight a few more real fighters

mosley first.

I'd hate to see what would have happened if De La Hoya would have walked into the ring with a bucket of fried chicken and a plate of watermelon, or some other stereotype. He probably wouldn't have made it out of the arena alive.

apples oranges...if he walked in wearing red/black/green trunks then it's the same...

did he walk in the ring eating tacos..no..so shut the fuck up when grown folks is talking...

[QUOTE=Manowar;12384702]i just wanna see him not retire and fight a few more real fighters

why get your head bashed in some more...he's paid, went out a champ, nothing left to prove...no matter who he fight there will always be the people hate him...i think he should stay retired....fuck what people say.

I think he's just another dumb ass. I look forward to a re-match so De La Hoya can knock a little sense into him.

Not the same at all. When's the last time you seen a Mexican listening to music like that wearing a giant sombrero? By your logic, perhaps it would be OK if he entered the ring in a stereotypical African garb, perhaps carrying a spear and some sort of African robe? He'd have Al Sharpton on his door as soon as he left the arena crying racism.

Trying asking a Mexican what they thought of his little stunt. And don't tell me to shut up, you ignorant cunt.

In the HBO story about both fighters he was far from a role model. Athletes can and should be positive about there predictions of an event, but he simply acted in an inappropriate manner. At the fight his attire was disrespectful and once again setting a bad example for our youth. Our youth looks up to sports figures and personally I wish there was more rules or just a simple code to ensure positive actions. Our youth deserves it and we do as a society as well. Grow the fuck up!:2 cents:


Mr. Romance

No. Racism is a policy which discriminates.

after all this stuff..mayweather is still the winner....

what is it you're talking about anyways?

exactly right :thumbsup

Oscar should show up for his next fight against a Negro wearing this and see how Reverend Al responds.

I don't think Reverend Al and the rest of the black population would do anything other than laugh hysterically if he wore that.

boxing lost me as a fan after that bullshit fight. its pretty bad when you make it look like no one wins so you can make another 25 mil on the rematch.

bullshit.

The nappy headed ho would whine and cry like the little bitch he is.
You see, blacks hate Mexicans for showing that their "boo hoo, I can't get ahead in this racist society" to be the bullshit that it is.

I'm sure most of them would laugh, but I think you are underestimating Al Sharpton's stupidity. He would be all over that like stink on shit, calling for him to be banned from boxing.

boxing lost me a long, long time ago. i think it's more fixed than wrestling :2 cents:

I'm still pissed that I forgot to order that fight

Mexicans aren't black, and were never owned by Southern white men.

Are you saying that a Mexican immigrant has it easier than a black person born and raised in the U.S.A.? No black person alive today was ever owned by A Southern white man.
The majority of Mexicans are brown and don't speak english yet they risk their lives to come to this country and prosper.

oh really?

It's about money - win or loss, the hat, the close fight, the judge call - all about more money for everyone. If you see racism over the $$$ signs here, then you need to take a deep look into yourself.

like i said..grown folks is talking...stay in your place..:1orglaugh

Nice response, you stupid piece of shit. Can you form a proper sentence or are you too busy picking watermelon seeds out of your teeth?

Nothing's worse than a hyprocrite.

I don't understand the point of a rematch. Mayweather will continue with his dance around style and Oscar will just keep waiting for a chance to go toe-to-toe - and not get it.

Naw, not racist. Just an idiot.

All them darkies are racist

mexico is not a race

So it's come to this? The coloreds are against the wetbacks?

Somehow I don't think it's that serious. I have it on good authority that the people in both races rarely even thinks about the other enough to have any kind of social bias.

I got all my money on Oscar on the next rematch with him.... you'll see....its all about the $$$$

yeah, that was bullshit. I think I heard one of the announcers say he was wearing it backwards too... on purpose??

You don't know what you're talking about.

Whats up with the orange today? :disgust

Maybe it had to do with Cinco De Mayo?

It is caused by the smoke from the fires, makes everything look orange.
