    Never Heard of It...

    Is it a RACE BAITING Channel, Like Punsh Drunk, the Typical LDBC Bullshit or the Angle Paule Malignaggi Seems to Be Taking More Frequently, These Days???...

    Don't pay attention to him.... The truth is Xplosive has never given me a fair shake since I joined the forum. He's either got a hard on for me or he's mistaken me for another poster. I don't watch much of Nuke's content; I find him annoying as he excessively supports Canelo. Despite this, I wouldn't call him a race baiter – in fact, he opposes the actions of race baiters like the LDBC and Dontae. Apart from his bias towards Canelo, he generally maintains fairness and impartiality in his content.

    Firstly, there's no hard on for you. I don't pay you much attention to you unless you say something asinine. Questioning Trinidad as a skilled fighter constitutes as something asinine.

    I think of Dontae as the biggest race baiter. Ego is a race-baiter also.

    Punsh Drunk, I think he's just a shameless Fimo fanboy. However, he def has a Latino bias cause like I said, his retarded ass once stated that Canelo would beat Hagler. I never took him seriously after that.

    He's a weirdo. Before his accident he was a Canelo fanboy but post accident Punshdrunk he's kind of a Canelo hater. It's like his personality changed. CTE???

    Proudly, REED Doesn't Play the Youtube RACE Game in His Videos...To Quote Curtis Cokes for the THOUSANDth Time, "Only Color That MATTERS In Boxing is the Color of the GLOVES Whupping Yo' Ass!"...

    Granted, 99.99999% of ALL Boxing Fans Were Introduced to the Sport Thru RACIAL, ETHNIC &/Or NATIONALISTIC Means; Someone That LOOKED Like Them Was Fighting, They Felt a CONNECTION of Some Sort and That Fighter RESONATED....More Times Than Not, THIS is @ the Core, the Genesis of Boxing Fandom...

    Being a Brother, REED Loooooooooooooooves His Black Fighters and Will ALWAYS Have a Soft Spot in his Heart for Them....But w/That Said, a Fighter Has to Be More Than JUST Black for REED to Root For Him...JUST Being Black AIN'T Enough, Sorry...Can You FIGHT?!:Dont:...And Just Because REED LIKES a Black Fighter, Doesn't Mean REED's Automatically PICKING That Black Fighter to Win a Particular Bout...

    For Instance, Up Until the Litany of Post-Fury 2 EXCUSES & the SHAMEFUL Enabling of Such by the LDBC, REED Actually LIKED Deontay Wilder...

    Nonetheless, After Witnessing Fury-Wilder 2, It was OBVIOUS Fury Had Wilder's Number...As Many Other Black Fans DELUDED Themselves with Glove Gate, the Weight of Wilder's Ring Walk Suit and Accusations of Mark Breland Spiking His Water, REED CONFIDENTLY Picked Fury to Not Only BEAT Wilder, But STOP Him in the 3rd Bout...

    REED was Labeled a "Coon" and Lost 25-30 Subscribers with the QUICKNESS, For Daring to Share That Opinion...REED Received Similar Backlash When he Picked Mikey Garcia OVER Bunny Easter, a Prediction Sooooo Patently OBVIOUS, REED Didn't Even Beat His Chest Afterwards...Nonetheless, Prior to Mikey-Bunny, REED was Once Again Labeled a "Coon"...

    No, REED is a Boxing Fan, Not a BLACK Boxing Fan, a BOXING Fan...

    I feel like those LDBC guys are casual fans, though. I doubt many of them have ever watched a 90s fight, let alone an 80s or 70s fight.


    A lot of them latch on to guys like Floyd or Tank and they think they know the sport.

    It's great to see more boxing channels like yours incorporating the hip-hop vibe without resorting to race-baiting. You have the potential to attract a substantial following, much like Dontae, by adopting a bold and racist persona, although some might consider it compromising your integrity. I'm glad you chose to stay true to your good values and beliefs. Hope your channel keeps growing in popularity.

    There has always been an anti-Mexican fighter bias on Fightbeat. It's not rampant but definitely noticeable.

    You're Mexican? I always assumed you were a freckled faced Irish like most members that post here.

    LOL. I am half Mexican. Well, a little less than half because my dad was also part Chumash Indian. My mom was white (according to 23 & me, Irish, English, German, Portuguese.) She was raised by a Mexican (her step-dad) & somehow I am 6% black.

    I've never seen a freckled face Irish Mexican before. You think we'll see one?

    Totally true, dude! back in the day during the Mexican-American War (that's, like, 1846 to 1848), some Irish folks who had come to the US were like, "Nah, we're not feeling the American vibe," and they actually joined the Mexican side to fight. They called themselves the "San Patricios." It's kinda wild 'cause they were dealing with a lot of anti-Irish stuff in the US army, so they switched teams, you know? Just goes to show, history's got some unexpected twists, bro.

    Honestly not gay or anything but I don't think Shakur is good-looking at all. He looks goofy. I think Jermell Charlo is a good looking brother. They're tall and handsome. I'm surprised they haven't crossed over as super stars specially Jermell.

    The Charlos arent mainstream stars because they're inactive, and they severely lack charisma. They're also dislikeable MFs, but that's all good if you have charisma (see Floyd). But a dislikeable fighter with no charisma? Doesn't crossover.

    Perhaps I should have better defined Floyd.

    He definitely lacks the effortless charisma of an Ali or Tyson.

    He knows how to market himself, which isn't entirely the same as charisma.

    The Charlos have none of those skills.

    Yeah Floyd had no charisma. If anything, he tried too hard to come off witty and funny and it was just cringe.

    X is right about Ali and Tyson, in that they have a natural magnetism that draws people to them. Hector Camacho and Naz were charismatic, marketable fighters. Of course Leonard and Duran were charismatic as well. Robinson goes without mentioning.

    Floyd had nothing on those guys when it came to that.

    Having just watched a Jermell interview with Big Boy from Power 106, it's clear that Jermell has matured and seems more at peace. His relaxed demeanor makes him come across as a very likable and composed young man.
