Mayweather - Most Racist Boxer Since Jim Jeffries

[The Gambler1981]

I don't think Jefferies was very much different from almost any white person of that era in terms of racism.

If you are using todays standards for racism I can almost assure you he was, but for that period he might have been moderate.

I'll just wait for a link then.

What floyd said was out of line but i don't consider him a racist. People say dumb **** all the time.

I meant wasn't racist. It was a mis-type, and I was calling the topic creator a moron. Not you!

Alright mate.

I'll redirect my question to the TS, mate.

[PEBBLES!]

Can you provide me with a link to Jeffries blatant racism???


Jeffries was promoted and hailed as the Great White Hope to reclaim the Championship for the white race by the promoter and a large portion of the populace.


It still doesn't justify your claims that he was a racist.

He used the N-Word.

He used the N-Word.

Alright mate, he probably did, given it was the early 1900's, but I would still like a link to confirm.

You can't put things that happened 100 years ago in a current context.

the internet didn't exist yet in the early 1900's. maybe you can go to your local library and search the newspaper archives.
