And/Or
If you don't like domestic violence you're faking it because nobody really cares, especially if you're a guy and you hate Floyd
And I guess you're either a Floyd hater or a Floyd lover?
This thread is comedy.

I've heard the stories, knew he went to jail.
Never once bothered to look it up.
I've ordered many of Floyd's fight without once even thinking about him being a women beater.
Am I scum BLASTER?

The Floyd situation reminds me of the Sterling situation in some ways.
Both dudes were known to do scumbag **** for a while. People knew, but there wasn't widespread outrage
Something new happens, and all of a sudden everyone get enrage and people kinda see the light
Which is cool. It is understandably
But it is kinda weird to me that in Sterling's case it took him saying something disgustingly racist for people to finally wake up to his racism.
In Floyd's case it took him about too have the biggest night in his career for the public outrage to finally come.
I mean Floyd's last run in for domestic violence was what 2010ish? Plenty of people called him a scumbag, but he was still fighting big fights and getting promoting fights no problem.
Wasn't until the Pacman fight, some felt it was the right time to publicly crucify dude. I mean I sure there are many that always hated dude for his violent past, but there are many others that knew, didn't say a peep until it was being talked about all over the place.
And it is kinda funny hearing people now be upset at others for not being extremely outraged. Like pa, he went to jail, he family forgave him, his kids seem to have forgiven him, the women he assaulted seemed to have forgiven him, we known about this for years, but all of a sudden I gotta reach deep down inside of myself to find the rage to condemn dude to your liking. Ehhhh nahhhhhhh
Floyd was a scumbag for what he did, I will never defend him for that. But at the same time, why should I be mad at dude right now? Seems like some naturally dislike Floyd, and know after he played with Pacman that this is really the only thing left they can use to thro shade at dude.
Have your fun brahs. But don't get upset when others aren't willing to entertain you.

Listen, you're smarter than this.
Beadle, Nichols, and Olbermann all could've called for the boycotting of his fights for his fight for a few years now.
You keep going to 2002 but even you acknowledge he's been a household name since the DLH fight.
That was 2007....
Where were the calls for his head since then?
Where?!
You keep ducking and dodging the question dude.
All these fights he had since his DLH fight, but it wasn't really 'til the Pac fight the outrage really came out.

I've answered the question already you're just conveniently disregarding it like you have my question to you.
So where were they? Probably the same place every other sports reporter or beat writer was, at home not knowing the magnitude of domestic violence because it occurs behind closed doors off camera.
Still waiting for your answer...
Conveniently disregard this
So who's really ducking and dodging questions here? You're using a disregarding mechanism to not have to answer my question when I've clearly answered yours.

Lol WHAT!? You're telling me nobody in the media understood the gravity and seriousness of domestic violence until the Ray Rice fiasco?
That it took a video for people to wrap their heads around it?
Lol alright buddy, you go with that. Yeah, the media was just ignorant. I mean it wasn't like big name celebrities haven't been charged with domestic violence in the past right?
Nah, it took a video.
The lengths you're going to deflect the fact that people, the media and casual boxing fans alike, hell even non-boxing fans, waited until the Manny fight to feign their outrage.
Hell, the Rice saga was well under way and barely anyone brought it up during the second Maidana fight. Not like how it was a hot button topic leading to the Manny fight.
Funny how you ignore that fact.
What's your explanation for that one buddy?

And surely Kellerman of all people could've brought it up on Sports Nation time and again....
Yettt, he didn't, nor did Beadle, until about a few weeks before May 2nd, 2015....
Over a year since the Ray Rice elevator surfaced.
How come no calls for people to boycott the Maidana bouts? Both of them?
You have no legitimate answer for this question do you?
You can't admit that when people can no longer try to discredit him as a boxer, they'll attack his character instead.
You can't admit that no matter what, some people always hated Mayweather, regardless of his criminal past.
Many for racial reasons.
I'm not going to sit here and act like Floyd himself doesn't stoke some of those fires, fighting on Mexican holidays, wearing sombreros, being disrespectful.
But let's not pretend that boxing doesn't have a history of crowds being divided because of race. Most true boxing fans don't do this, but when the casuals show up, they're driven by racial pride.
And hell, a ton of white Americans just wouldn't like Floyd regardless.

I just don't get how EYE am looked at wrong because I view Floyd as an entertainer and I don't allow what he does in his personal life to determine how much I will allow myself to be entertained by him.
My issue is when people make me, or anyone else that "supports" Floyd, out to be a bad guy because we don't display outrage over the situation.
Honestly, I don't give a damn. I don't know him, nor his girl. Doesn't matter to me. That isn't the same thing as me saying I ENDORSE woman beating. I just don't care. I don't need to display outrage on the internet over it.
Floyd is an entertainer. That is what I view him as. That is what "God" placed him in my life to do.
So whoever he beats, I don't give a damn. I will watch his fights and hope he wins because it is best for business

This discussion is going nowhere. You absolutely refuse to accept the answer because it's not what you want to hear and you can't even answer a simple question I posed to you.

It's called being disconnected, which is what Mayweather fans are. It didn't happen to their woman so there's no need to care about domestic abuse...right?

Honestly, that is how I feel. I don't know the girl. I am not emotionally invested in the situation, nor the participants, to give a damn.
But don't use me as an example, I don't really give a damn about the personal lives of anyone I am entertained by. So if Jushin Thunder Liger smacks his wife around and cheats on his taxes, I wouldn't be any less entertained by him.
So yes, I don't care

Yet you're doing exceedingly well at misframing my question and answering in a way that conveniently omits the facts.
You bring up the Rice fiasco, yet ignore the fact that Mayweather fought twice before his Pacquiao bout and none of these pundits nor these fans were asking for his head.

And honestly, I believe many people don't really give a damn but don't publicly express that because
A. Makes you look like an emotional-less human
B. It removes you from being able to participate in pointless banter about it with co-workers, friends, internet people

The irony is LWC being a fan of a franchise that backed Ray McDonald when he was arrested on domestic violence prior to the 2014 season and then who subsequently went on to be investigated for sexual assault and got arrested again for domestic violence.
Funny how I don't see any vitriol coming from you in the 49ers threads towards your franchise. Where's your outrage there?
Instead of the 49ers immediately terminating him they let him play, for their own football interests.
Where's your outrage bud? Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I get it, you're a 49ers fan, you can't be mad at that. Not for too long at least, all good right? All forgiven amiright?
Right?

DING DING DING.
B is definitely the answer.
It's just another thing to talk about at happy hour while you're downing a beer watching Sports Center. Topic of the day, Rousey puts Mayweather on blast for his past.

Just live with the fact that humans pick and chose what they will display outrage about
