Connor fights the best in their prime, and typically finishes or gets finished
People started hating Floyd bc he ducked the best and when he finally did fight then he was boring and played defense the whole time.
This. Mayweather avoiding Pacquiao until they were both practically washed up was stupid. Those 2 fighting in their prime could have saved boxing.

he real “conversation” that needs to be had is, yes, sometimes white people will see black people differently and vice versa as well, and it isn’t from some evil level
This is getting downvoted to Hell and back but I kinda agree with him. There is some ability to identify with certain athletes and I think he picked a good analogy with John Daly. We’ve all gotten drunk on a golf course but we haven’t been able to make a career out of it. Until we quit being unable to even discuss race, we can’t move past it.
Black people do certain things more than white people. White people do certain things more than black people. Southerners are different than northerners. Californians suck politically.
Some things just ARE.

Not many people will disagree with that.
It’s the silly first post that he made.

Same with Gronk but to a MUCH lesser extent.
Gronk also has his shite together.

Correct.
I just meant neither of them are simply what he pegged them as and the way he used them in his argument was disingenuous.
But Gronk to a lesser extent.

John Daily is beloved for being a drinker and partier even though he wasted extreme talent
Is he beloved though? People might have been pulling for him to beat his addictions but he is usually the butt of the jokes.

Gronk is loved for being a partying moron. I don’t see black athletes that are dumb as hell who party in the public eye get loved for it
LT?

No it probably just some shitty controversial decision like everything other big boxing match.

This is something that I've never understood. So a "bum" took you 10 rounds. Does he not see that? Maybe Floyd should cross over and fight Poirier to prove a point.
Took him 10 rounds???... if you watch any boxing it’s obvious Floyd allowed it to go 10 rounds... McGregor ain’t take it nowhere...

If Daly is black, I don’t think he has the support and absolute adoration of so many white people like he did.

No... Tiger would disagree with your assumption also... as he considers himself some shite I can’t pronounce ...

Gronk was partying with underage girls in Aruba and the media shrugged.

People are drawn to life experiences and what they relate to.
I think tribalism and racism have become intertwined. There was an article way back before this country lost its mind that gave a great example. A white person buying a Scalabrini Celtics jersey bc he looks like him isn’t an attack on black people BUT refusing to buy a jersey bc a player is black would be.

So some(pretty much every golf fan in America and everywhere else in the world) people loving him doesn’t count.

Meywhether has always been. POS punk thug....... in a real street fight Conner would leave him laying in a pool of blood.... he would not stand a chance......

I’d rather pay twice to watch a McGregor fight than pay once to watch another of Mayweathers. That’s the most boring shite ever.

Mayweather then turned his attention back to McGregor as he mocked the suggestion that the Irishman could potentially face his former rival Manny Pacquiao inside the boxing ring later this year.
It's always a shame to see people cry about problems they helped create.
