Does Floyd Mayweather Jr. get treated with a double standard?

[mikelovesfood]

Well do you believe he does? Does it have anything to do w/ his skin color? Or that he's rich and successful and undefeated?

Yeah, it has to do with him being black that he ducked Cotto, Margarito, Williams(who also happens to be black). Its funny how Floyd always goes on Vacation when ever the 147 division gets hot!

if a white guy like hatton said racial things about pac, he would be crucified everywhere.

but it has more to do with floyd being rich and successful than race. if he was floyd smith jr. instead of floyd mayweather jr., everyone and even more black people would hate on him.

celebs end up in trouble probably more often than regular people cuz they live in front of the camera, but celebs don't have to pay the same price the regular folks do.

it's a triple standard cause he's black and *******ual

There are a lot of factors that play into why people dislike Floyd. In my opinion none of them makes any sense. Floyd is a grown man and the last time I checked he hasn't killed anyone. So whatever he says or does is his right. People might not like him for that but it is not against the law to have an opinion or flash your wealth in others face. Rich people do it all the time & no one is yelling foul at them. They make their & go live in places the average person never gets to see. Just because Floyd throws it out there that he has a lot of money makes him no different. The only difference that I can see is he makes his money by putting his life in danger like every other boxer. Whereas the rich make theirs of the backs of hard worker people. As I have said before what he says about another person he plans to fight is nothing but trash talk. As far as race goes it a factor in just about everything people in this country do daily. So even though Floyd said what he was going to have PAC do once he beat him I didn’t see that as racist. Those who did need to look in the mirror before judging the man. We all have said racist things in public & in private so who are we to judge. And if anyone out there says they haven’t said a racist thing in their life then I personally call you an f**king liar.

There is a double standard when it comes to Floyd Mayweather. Its not to do with him being black or being undefeated though, its just the things he says that piss people off, saying your better than Sugar Ray Robinson will piss ALOT of people off, especially the old timers.

He's talks a lot of ****. People don't like that.
