Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Floyd Mayweather Thinks MMA Was Created So Caucasians Could Be Champions?

Wow, and they thought Brock Lesnar was bad? Let's take a look at the current champions:

-Brock Lesnar is Caucasian

-Lyoto Machida isn't Caucasian

-Anderson Silva isn't Caucasian

-GSP is French Canadian(is that considered Caucasian?)

-BJ Penn isn't Caucasian

-Mike Brown is Caucasian

-Miguel Torres isn't Caucasian

-Fedor Emelianenko isn't Caucasian

I'm probably missing a few, but you get the point in that he was making an a** of himself.

Floyd needs attention. Most self absorbed women do.

all good points kelvin.

last time i checked, boxings hw champs were all white, not american, but still white. who cares? i like good fighters, no mater the ethnicticity. floyd has bashed mma before and then recanted and now he’s at it again. of course he is just trying to sell the fight, but he’s saying alot of stupid things along the way. i think he’s pissed b/c dana said odh was always the draw in boxing, not floyd, which is somewhat true. oscar was the reason boxing did a million ppv buys, but guys like floyd,hatton and manny can still draw big #s. floyd is just making himself look silly, like the villian, which he seems to relish in.

Mayweather is an idiot

Didn’t he just ask Strikeforce if he could come in and fight, and didn’t they tell him “We aren’t interested?” Didn’t Dana White also say he doesn’t want Floyd, either? Gee, I wonder why?

So, now that the MMA community has given Floyd the “thumbs down,” it is no longer about the honor of the fight or the intrigue of the challenge, it’s “They’re not even in my league” when it comes to how much money his fights generate.

Also, the Gracies started the UFC – Brazilians… Shooto, the oldest existing MMA organization? Japanese… The man who many consider the “father of mixed martial arts” due to his style and philosophy of “Jeet Kun Do?” Yeah, he wasn’t white, either!

But it doesn’t matter because all that Floyd really cares about is the exposure and how many people will watch him either open his big idiotic mouth or to be the “King” of a one-dimensional sport. Good job there, jackass! Gee, I wonder why he doesn’t wanna fight Manny P? hahahaha

Ugh

While I don’t agree with Floyd’s statments (AT ALL) GSP is still WHITE whether you want to call that Caucasian or not I could give a crap. Let’s not try and split hairs here…

I'm the kind of girl who loves to watch a GOOD fight!

Floyd is an incredible boxer and a gigantic douchebag. You will NEVER see him get into the ring with South Carolina’s Paul Williams (37-1 and the world’s best 154 pound boxer). Paul is one of the few in the world that I think can beat him but wouldn’t be a big enough payday for him.

Son

Williams is sick.

So what are Shogun/Big Nog/Vitor/Alves/etc…?

Nationality = Brazilian
Race = Latino???

GSP: I pulled my groin.

Greg Jackson: I don't care Georges! HIT HIM WITH YOUR GROIN!

I just read a government memo that talked about, “including Hispanic as a racial designation, rather than as a separate ethnic category;” but most of the diversity surveys I’ve seen select "Hispanic or Not Hispanic, " and also a racial choice (white, black, native American, Asian, etc.)

somebody should let him fight an MMA match against an b-c level fighter. After he gets taken down and submitted in less than a minute. HE WILL SHUT UP.

I dunno

He’d then challenge them to a boxing match more than likely…lol.

He also ducks anyone who is a threat to him in boxing. Paul williams, Cotto, Mosely, and margarito. he WILL NEVER fight any of those guys.

What a racist prick.

I’d say it would be a surprise to the Klitschko brothers for them to find out they are black or hispanic.

Makes me think of one that line from of my favorite Richard Pryor movies, See No Evil, Hear No Evil: “You mean I’m not white!!!!”
