So we shouldn't progress as a species on this planet, or should we just continue to accept racial biased, ignorance and bigotry?

The fact that a man's career, way of making a living and supporting his family, can ripped out under him for making a comment that can possibly be conceived as insulting... is INSANE...but hey,
Keep drumming on that "progress" you're talking about...
Real progress wouldn't be knee-jerk reactions to reprimand and punish everyone in the name of "progress"
There's obviously a politically correct narrative that is strictly enforced if anyone goes off script.

This was a culmination of all those ignorant acts. Not to mention it was on PPV, on Cinco de Mayo and the promoter is a Mexican/American.
He's an idiot, needs to grow the *** up and I feel 0 empathy for him.

Broner is a scumbag but those particular comments weren't anything to get suspended over, it's ridiculous IMO.

Originally posted by face untouched View Postokay, first off what he said aint racist imo, guys like Nacho be saying Mayweather and Bradley fight "black" but he aint get banned but Broner get banned for saying he beat up a mexican? wtf is going on in boxing that shi- like this happens? why not deal with corruption like judges awarding gifts or trying to rob fighters like with the 114-114 Canelo Mayweather score or the Maidana - Mayweather 114-114 score. This is ridiculous.
You know if it was Molina saying he beat up a black boxer he wouldn't be getting banned. But The Problem gotta apologize? if he backs down and apologizes he'll lose me as a fan.
Any form racism is detestable, more so in absence of an apology. to be suspended by for 1 year for post fight comments.

I agree he is an idiot, and I in no way support the personality that he's trying to sell... and ultimately, he'll come back and fight and make money...
The bigger issue, in my mind, is the precedent of keeping everyone "on script"... "or else"... You don't want people people being so offensive that it stains the image of boxing(even more), but you want fighters to be able to speak their mind as well.

This is comin from something who loathes Broner's persona.
