first of all, it’s doubtful that hopkins can even be a “racist” based on
the true definition of the term. and where has your outrage been with
the history of discrimination against black fighters? where was your
outrage when alan minter told marvin hagler “i ain’t losing my title to
no black man” or greg haugen’s racist comments about hispanics before
his whipping by julio cesar chavez? or hector camacho using the “n
word”? pavlick himself is an overrated, taller version of ray mancini
who only got attention because of his skin tone. that in and of itself
is racism

Pavlik should have stayed in the middleweight class. Obviously he lost speed by bulking up. Too bad the racist won the fight. I will continue to root against Hopkins in any future fights he has. Does our media have such a double standard that they refuse to call out Hopkins for his very racist comments?
