Beating up on women is one of the few things I can't separate from an athlete.

Drug dealer? Thief? Tax evasion? I can admittedly forget about those when watching incredible athletes.

But that's just me.

And people equating cock fighting and cheating on your wife to beating the frick out of several women look silly. Cock fighting in the Philippines is probably an accepted sport

Mayweather is a piece of trash who should be in jail. I hope he loses, but doubt it happens.

I'm not equating anything. I'm just showing you the types of acrobatics guys like you will go through as to why you support one guy and dislike another. When you support one guy and not another based on off the field crap, it's interesting to see the things you will justify to make you feel better about who you back.

Cockfighting, you can minimize it if you want, but it's cruelty to animals. If Mayweather was involved with that we wouldn't hear the end of it, and it has nothing to do with its legality. It's because it's a crappy thing to do. It being legal elsewhere doesn't make it less crappy.

Pacquiao is a complete phony IMO. But I really don't get into that when I'm decide who to back because quite honestly there wouldn't be enough people to root for if I eliminated all of the people who I thought were not good people. At the end of the day I just want to be entertained, not find a role model or someone to give me hope in mankind.
