Floyd Mayweather Thrashes Jeremy "Pacman" Lin

[Beatlezz]

Floyd Mayweather @FloydMayweather

Jeremy Lin is a good player but all the hype is because he's Asian. Black players do what he does every night and don't get the same praise.

:lol :facepalm :lol

[Droid101]

Name a black player who went from being in the NBDL a week ago to averaging 28 points, 8 assists and 2 steals and leading an NBA team to a four-and-oh week when they were previously on a five game losing streak?

All right, and if you can, you'd know that WE'D BE FREAKING OUT THE SAME AMOUNT. That shit just does not happen often.

**** you, you ignorant piece of shit.

[G-Funk]

that some racist shyt

[Faptastrophe]

I just got warped back to the days of Larry Bird and Isiah Thomas. Where Isiah Thomas basically said the exact same thing about Larry Bird after a playoff loss.

There is Lin hype because he has scored 109 points in his first four starts. That's the most by any nba player in history. Don't pretend like every point guard is putting up 38 against the lakers.

[Dwade305]

Shame how the greatest boxer of our generation is an ignorant f*ck off the ring

[scm5]

I hope Pacman knocks him the **** out if/when they eventually fight.

[AlphaWolf24]

LIN should be viewed as a person who kept believing and never gave up...

ASIA has nothing to do with it...born and raised in California.

Mayweather has a point...kind of...but Lin is a amazing story as a person and a American who kept working until he got his chance...much like many other great stories.

[Atmo]

Funny, considering he's afraid to fight an Asian

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Floyd is partially right. Like Droid said though..dude is dropping 20+ a game and the Knicks have been winning...without their two best players.

Lin's game is doing the talking.

[Deuce Bigalow]

I hope Pacman knocks him the **** out if/when they eventually fight.

I remember Flip Murray did this a few years ago...he was hyped for a week until Ray Ray came back to Seattle...

Oh KNOW!!!...Trade MELO NOW!!

[Derka]

Just cos Floyd's scared of a particular Asian dude don't mean he has to be a hater.

[scm5]

Floyd is right, but not entirely. Like Droid said, dude is dropping 20+ a game and the Knicks have been winning...without their two best players.

I think it's more along the lines of the whole story of Jeremy Lin.

Going to Harvard and having the grades to back it up, Undrafted, D-League, waived twice..... to playing at all-star levels overnight and leading to wins, not just numbers... and it happened without Melo and STAT.

Ridiculous if you don't think the story is worthy of being sensationalized. The fact that he's Asian and not Black is just icing on the cake.

[Teanett]

lin>pacman>gayweather

[Droid101]

Exactly. I remember getting caught up in the Flip Murray hype. I was freaking out at how well this former-scrub was playing.

We all know how the next eight years of his career went.

people comparing lin to flip muray also think that john wall is better than ricky rubio...

[BarberSchool]

Floyd Mayweather is a great boxer. He is not a fighter.

He is also unfortunately a sad, ignorant, frightened racist who can never be truly comfortable around anyone who isn't black.

He has ducked every fighter who was a challenge to him, until they exited their prime, and he fights like a coward.

All bad things which happen to him give me a weak, sick of justice and pleasure. He is one of the very few professional athletes I can honestly say I have genuine hatred for. His personality, mind, and soul are so utterly repulsive that it causes me to sink to his level of hatred in return.

He is the worst type of human being. The lowest of low. Which is even more disgusting given the amount of money and influence he has.

F#@k him and anyone who likes him. And to those who love him, please explain how you can love the man.

yea because the only difference between sessions and lin is their race...

lemme know when Sessions didn't get any scholarships for college, went undrafted, got cut by 2 teams, sent down to d leagues, graduated from harvard, and put up 100 points in first 4 starts

Ramon Sessions was sent to the D-League and was barely drafted 56th pick. No one really cared about him. Put up 78 assists in his first 6 starts. He had more impressive games from a stat purist point of view.

[DirtySanchez]

you do know Pac is dodging Mayweather now, right?

Do you read between the lines?

Mayweather like he always does is forcing a fight to his advantage.
And you kids are telling me I do not know about boxing. Check your facts again.

Any how Mayweather has said "Filipinos look like Monkeys" and other racist statements. GTFO with that other BS.

Let's start with did he fight De La Hoya in his prime? Ummm nope.

Mosley? Nooooope.

Cotto? Noooope.

Pacman? Noooooooope.

Mayweather is a very talented boxer, but his resume stinks compared to Manny Pacquiao. Even if Floyd beat Pacquiao. Pac still has the better resume and accomplishments.

I think you and others like you are entitled to your opinion. But to go as far as hate someone youve never met is completely insaneunless the man commited a crime. Floyd might be a dick. He might be a snob. He might be somewhat racist. He might even duck some people at times. But you dont hate him for that. You hate that hes all these things while being successful. Rich and famous.

If floyd wasnt an undefeated boxer. If he didnt have a billion dollars and insainly popular... U wouldnt give 2 effin s$!&ts

I personaly dont give a crap about him because boxing is lame. But i know enough to see jealousy and envy. And it bleeds through you like a woman on her period

[Wally450]

I hope someone asks Lin about Mayweathers comments, and Lin goes "Who's Floyd Mayweather?" That would be :applause:

cotto
margs

cotto?.....Bob Arum would not let cotto fight mayweather he said he was "not ready" nor has cotto stated the desire to fight mayweather when cotto was in his prime. Also they are scheduled to fight may 5th

Margs?.....really?....

Pacman - don't know if you were payting attention but the pieces of the puzzle came togteher a while ago in this whole debacle and it Was Pacquiao's camp that wanted no part of Mayweather. As if the whole pacman refusing the testing wasn't enough, but arum recently made it known that he's been lying through his teeth the whole time about trying to make the fight happen when he had no interest in letting pacman fight mayweather. Mayweather signed his contract pacquiao did not.


there are lots of resources out there, maybe you should do more reading.

[I.R.Beast]

are you serious?......Do you people even watch Boxing?.....

he's made his career off of past prime fighters coming off of loses or poor performances..... He's recieved bogus decision victories over JMM twice..

[PistonsFan#21]

Let's start with did he fight De La Hoya in his prime? Ummm nope.

Mosley? Nooooope.

Cotto? Noooope.

Pacman? Noooooooope.

Pacquiao fought:
1) a weight drained past his prime De La Hoya
2) Mosley after he was beat up by Mayweather (Mayweather actually took the Mosley fight after he came off an impressive victory against Margarito)
3) A Cotto coming off a loss against Margarito
4) Dodged Floyd saying he couldnt fight on May 5th because of a cut he had in his last fight that would take too much time to heal (but still trying to get a fight on the same date with Marquez)

I am a huge boxing fan dumb @$$. Pacquiao beat a Prime Barrera, Prime Morales, and a Prime Marquez in their own weight classes. Pacquiao also kicked the @$$ of Cotto who's going to be the next opponent of Mayweather.

4) Dodged Floyd saying he couldnt fight on May 5th because of a cut he had in his last fight that would take too much time to heal (but still trying to get a fight on the same date with Marquez)

fixed it for ya

[June1026]

If he was black, he would've never been overlooked, or undrafted. Lin is the opposite of Floyd, intelligent, calm, and don't seek for attention, get this douche in jail already.

No he did not....he fought Morales after Morales lost to barrera. Pacman lost the fight despite Morales coming off of a loss in a war that should've been his retirement bout(barrera bout). After beating Pacman Morales then fights again thinking he's still got it and loses to Zahir Raheem in a fight where Morales was a shadow of his former self and looked awful. Pacquiai and his camp swoop in to Finish a shot legend off.


He beat a prime Barrera...the only prime fighter he has beaten....

pacquiao has been fighting unranked fighters or fighters coming off of losses and/or poor performances since entering the welter weight division...

Mayweather beat the undefeated Diego Corrales, Luis Castillo, Mosley when he was ranked the 3rd best P4P boxer in the world, Ricky Hatton while he was undefeated.

You don't know $hit about boxing. Barrera alone >>>>>> Corales, Castillo, and past his prime Mosley. Prime Mosley and Dela Hoya would have KO'ed 2007 and 2010 Floyd Mayweather.

Pacquiao started his career in the Light Flyweight Division. A 19 yrs.old Pacquiao won his first title in the Flyweight division after defeating the undefeated lineal Flyweight Champion Chachai Sasakul.

Pacquiao beat up high ranked opponents in the Flyweight, Super Bantamweight, Featherweight, and Super Featherweight division. Watch some of his older fights on youtube.

I personaly dont give a crap about him because boxing is lame. But i know enough to see jealousy and envy. And it bleeds through you like a woman on her periodYou have me wrong brother. Jealousy and envy are absolutely NO part of my hatred for Floyd. It is genuine moral repulsion. A poor bum on the street with the same attributes as Floyd disgusts me just the same. I am not jealous in any way, and especially not of his wealth or fame.

Perhaps people you know have hatred fueled by jealousy. But you have my motivation for hatred 100% wrong.

[BarberSchool]

If he was black, he would've never been overlooked, or undrafted. Lin is the opposite of Floyd, intelligent, calm, and don't seek for attention, get this douche in jail already.Very true on all points.

Lin was discriminated against his whole career because he WASN'T black. I wish Floyd could see that and feel like Lin is his brother in struggling to overcome adversity.

unfortunately, I think Floyd only feels compassion for black adversity, and has no love or appreciation for overcoming adversity itself. Floyd Mayweather is a small, fearful, ignorant, loudmouthed racist.

[SilkkTheShocker]

Anyone that thinks Miss Pac Man can beat Floyd, is outta there mind. There isn't enough HGH on this planet to give him a shot.

[wang4three]

[PP34Deuce]

I remember the dunk he had in one of those games...Announcers were amazed... If JJ Reddick had made that dunk they would have been like good play.

What I don't understand is how they are shocked by his quickness and quick leap. Asian genes are just as coordinated and athletic...The only difference is they don't generally put on muscle mass like black players and lesser extent white players. Plus the guy is 6'3...

It's true that no one has done what Lin has, going from the D-league to 38 points against the Lakers, but if it were his D-league teammate Jerome Jordan instead, he would have nowhere near the amount of hype as Jeremy Lin.

[clayton]

I don't see anything racist about his comment. If there's a black dude doing the same thing, the hype would be significantly lower because it's been done before by past black people.

Using pay per view numbers is a very misguided way to prove the sport's popularity. Every notable fight is on pay per view these days and pay per view costs more than ever, of course the figures are going to be skewed. The popularity of boxing, particularly in the U.S. ( the country with the greatest history in professional boxing) is at it's lowest since god knows when.

Mayweather in all his arrogance and greed can't agree to a 50/50 split of the money received for the fight and is likely dodging Manny to avoid a stain on his record. Pacquaio on the other hand won't agree to a blood test (possibly doping) and the fight never takes place. All that takes place is Mayweather running his mouth like a jackass, when he's not beating up his girlfriend. Not to mention, the heavyweight division is an absolute joke, no compelling fighters whatsoever.

[kurt_rambis]

mayweather is hardly 'trashing' him. the very first thing he said was lin is a good player

and of course he's at least partially right. a lot of the lin hype is because he's an asian-american dude playing in a decidedly non asian-american sport. why is that so hard for people to admit? it's completely obvious, and honestly not even a big deal

i swear, some people get so excited when a black guy says something the least bit controversial, they think it gives them a free pass to say some truly racist shit

Its so obvious but people just wanna act like thats not the reason he's garnered so much interest.

You can turn on CNN a week ago and they had a short session on Lin, I mean c'mon ! :oldlol:


Its an asian kid dominating in basketball, its fun to watch, stop treating the situation like an elephant in the room and embrace it for what it is.

Of course race is a part of it but what is also a big part of it is that the guy was undrafted, played in the Ivy League (not known for their basketball), his career prospects up to this point, the fact that he's playing point guard for the New York Knicks and all the talk up to this point has been that they desperately need a quality point guard, and that he is playing his ass off and has been the centerpiece to a 5 game winning streak. It still would have been a story if he wasn't Asian-American and he came to the Knicks and scored all these points and led them to 5 consecutive wins as an undrafted free agent who has done little in his career up until this point. It has just been catapulted even higher because of his ethnicity.

It's perfect timing to publicly announce something like this.
His fight is coming up, the most talked about athlete right now is Lin so why not stay in the media's watchful eye, it's free press/promoting good or bad.

[BurningHammer]

Is Floyd playing a heel role to hype up his next fight, or that is what he is?

[Swaggin916]

I think this just proves something we all already knew. Mayweather is a moron and probably a racist.

[IamRAMBO24]

I don't view this as a racist statement. I view it as a "territorial" statement. Basketball is a black man's sport; they earn that title because they have been bleeding to be the best, so I can understand the resentment (including whites) that try to reclaim the title.

There is no racism in the world of sports: it's all about competition; I know true sports fanatic will NOT say, "Oh this guy is asian, so he automatically sucks."

This is the only part in society that brings all of us together to look beyond race and judge each other honestly based on what we do on the court as opposed to what we do off of it.

Mayweather is prob not racist for saying what he said; in everyone of us we always fear losing ground for something we can claim as our own. Pacquiao is challenging him for the boxing title and another asian is being revered on the same level as MJ. Also, don't forget, Yao Ming was overly hyped as the second coming too.

Mayweather is prob not a racist but just a true competitor who wants to see his people hold on to the successes they have gain.

Every race is guilty of this.

[InspiredLebowski]

The insane amount of hype absolutely has a lot to do with him being Asian. It also has a lot to do with his backstory (no D1 offers, cut twice, etc). It also has a lot to do with him playing in NY. He puts up the same numbers in Milwaukee the national media probably doesn't care all that much. But it absolutely has a ton to do with him being Asian, and there's nothing at all wrong with that.

He's wrong that guys do this kinda stuff every day though. They simply don't, it's never happened. Which is what makes it so weird and hard to know how to handle. It's not just him playing in NYC, it's not just him being Asian, it's when you couple it all with the backstory. It's just really surreal. And awesome.

[NumberSix]

I hope Pacman knocks him the **** out if/when they eventually fight.

not only are you naive .. but you're an apologist for a racist little cockroach .. good job :hammerhead:

[Rooster]

Floyd got a point but he should just grow a pair and fight Pacquiao. He is undefeated because he has not fought any great fighter in his prime. Shame for his enormous talent, he pick and choose the easy ones. If he really wanted to prove a point he could have 50-50 and fought Pacquiao or move up and fought Sergio.

[IamRAMBO24]

not only are you naive .. but you're an apologist for a racist little cockroach .. good job :hammerhead:

Obviously you've never played sports in your life so stfu.

Look when you are a competitor EVERYONE IS YOUR ENEMY. You don't care what race they are, hell, you will have disdain towards YOUR OWN race if he is the enemy, so I can understand why Mayweather felt the need to speak out against Lin when he has another asian breathing down his neck.

Guys who get pick last in PE class won't understand this point.

He does it all the time and it works. People will hate him more and buy his PPV and want to him lose (of course casual fans believed he can lose). But the reality is Floyd knew how to pick his opponent. The only thing is everyone want him to fight Pacquiao and he can't grow a pair with running every excuses he can get away with it.

as I said, you're a racist apologist .. you're talking shit .. 'competitors' talk shit all the time about their 'enemy' without bringing their ****ing race into the matter ... he's specifically taking a shot at this guy over his race ..

.. according to your stupid ass, it's ok to talk about people in that manner as long as you're a 'competitor' talking about your 'enemy' .. do you think it's ok for some white bball player to call out lebron for being black ? would you give said white bball a player a pass like you're giving this cockroach ? .. this fggt should be vilified just as much as anyone else who would say this about any other 'race'

mayweather is a wet ****** .. you can see it .. the guy's scared shitless of pacquiao .. he knows his unblemished record is in serious jeopardy if he faces this guy .. that's why he's doing whatever he can to 'stall' and make excuses to keep this fight from happening until he probably 'retires' again

Dude why are you so melodramatic?

The fact you can't seem to understand the concept that athletes are more focus on ability more than race is beyond sad. When Mayweather is hating on Lin, he is prob hating on competition. Athletes live and die on competition: we are not truely racist since we HATE EVERYONE INCLUDING OUR OWN KIND. We just don't like people who challenge our turf.

There is no racism in sports. I bet if Mayweather was on the knicks, he woulld love that Lin kid as much as any black dude.

Stop being such a cry baby and getting hurt over this. Dude I'm asian. If I'm not offended by this why should you? Please.

You can tell when he asked for a blood test. He never asked for any of his previous opponent before. Then when Pacquiao agreed, he back down and said he is on vacation. Then he asked for no cutoff, Pacquiao said yes and back down and asked for more than 50-50 Every time Pacquiao agreed, he changed his mind. 50-50 would been really great. He blamed Pacquiao for not taking 40 million. Well it's a no brainer that the fight will generate more than 100 million. Pacquiao is also a big name who deserved at least half of that.
I am not too impressed with Floyd undefeated record, he's a great boxer but I can't remember any career defining fights for his legacy. I thought he can be like Sugar Ray Leonard after beating tough fighters like Corrales and Castillo when he came up but after that he has not taken any tough challenge. He has been fighting a lot of money fights. He should fought Cotto, Margarito and Pacquiao when they were all in their prime but instead fought Baldomirs of the world, and washed up and shot Mosley.

[Teanett]

What crime did he do that requires hatred

The only i can think of is murder and rape

An Asian American player subverts the status quo. The hype surrounding J Lin signals change and some one like Floyd can't handle "change."

Hypocrite Floyd Mayweather is.

Didn't Obama the Black President have "change" in his vocabulary as part of his election campaign way back in 2008?

I guess if the change doesn't favor Blacks only then it deserves discredit from Floyd. Boohoo. Blacks aren't the only ones who can ball.

Shame how the greatest boxer of our generation is an ignorant f*ck off the ring

Haven't they all been?

Name me one all-time great boxer of any generation who hasn't been an ignoramus off the ring, besides Muhammad Ali, of course.



Floyd Mayweather is a POS. I've never respected the guy, never could. I think this MFer needs to keep his opinions out of the basketball world because he clearly doesn't know shit.

Has there ever been any other player of any nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, creed, age, religion, etc., who has gone from a dude in the NBDL to a complete nobody coming off the bench as a 12th man in garbage time to suddenly dropping 28 a night w/ 8 assists & leading his team to 4 straight wins? Name me one, Floyd. I'm waiting.

Who are you going to name? Antoine Walker? Greg Ostertag? Rafer Alston? Chris Andersen? Matt Barnes? Smush Parker?

Stupid ass mother****er. :facepalm

Lin might be getting attention by Asians because he's an Asian-American, but true basketball fans are amazed by this guy because of his level of play so far, not because of his ethnicity.

[Qwertyazerty]

When has an African-American player ever NOT gotten a basketball scholarship but still made their college team, then DIDN'T get drafted by an NBA team. Then played limited minutes and was cut from two NBA teams, and sent to play in the NBDL, and THEN came into the league and averaged more points over his first four games in starts than ANYONE IN HISTORY?

Lin is doing his thing but fact that it's the New York Knicks and a player of Asian descent definitely adds to the novelty of the story and why it's a national story as opposed to a local/regional story

[BarberSchool]

After dodging Floyd for the second time, highly unlikely.1st, Floyd dodged Manny multiple times before Manny ever demanded a 50/50 purse (can that really be considered dodging?)

2nd, are you saying the likelihood of them ever fighting is highly unlikely? Or that Manny would smack Floyd the f#@k up is unlikely ? Be real ..... That is anyone's fight of it ever happens.

If somebodies enjoyment of a player drives another person to dislike that player it says more about them than anything else. Sit back and enjoy Linsanity for what it is. This happens once in a blue moon for all of sports, it's too rare a moment to waste being negative if you truly love the game. This is why we watch sports, to see that special moment, to bare witness to that time that's out of the normal.

Lebron and Kobe and those guys will continue to do their thing but right now we have a kid who was sleeping on his brothers coach a few weeks ago playing all universe level hoops. This is the underdog story line, this is "Rudy" on steroids, he doesn't just get in the game, he kicks everyones ass when he does.

If anyone outside the realm of management has been the one worthy of blame of dodging the other....it's been Floyd hands down.
