Need4Sheed Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Unbeaten boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. has posted a swipe at the New York Knicks' point guard sensation on Twitter. Mayweather posted on Monday: ``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.'' Lin has led the Knicks to five straight victories, including a 38-point game against the Lakers. Mayweather rarely hesitates to air racially charged opinions, either in person or in social media. He has repeatedly insulted rival Manny Pacquiao, including an online video in 2010 in which he used racial and homophobic slurs against the Filipino congressman. Leonard Ellerbe, Mayweather's top adviser, didn't immediately return a phone call. http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/sports-boxing/20120214/Mayweather-Lin-Twitter/?cid=hero_media He is such a scumbag, hope one day Manny will beat dat ass.

EastCoastNiner Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Manny's a scared little doping coward. Floyd's a punk, but Manny is a scared little cheater that will duck his way out of this fight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NomarFachix Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Manny had a positive tweet about Lin the other day, obviously this was coming. Might hate Floyd most of anyone in sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sħãlïq™ Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Hmmmm, could it be that Mayweather hasn't read this yet: http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_lze6vnILFe1qm9rypo1_1280.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YarnIdge Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Yeah well I can't fully disagree with Mayweather, he does have a point. Of course Lin's race is gonna be noticeable, he's the only Asian that's gone over 2 points a game since Yao left. But at the same time being the ass that looks to put out a negative opinion on anything? That gets old bro, guy needs to grow up. Obviously there's a lot more to the hype around Jeremey Lin. Though saying that, dude is getting seriously over overhyped. People are gonna be sick of his face soon lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish7718 Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 lol don't see why every one is acting butt hurt, it's true, it is a good part of why he is getting so much attention, a perfect mixture of Asain, NY media, the team, how much he was passed up on, and his played.

Guru Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 lol don't see why every one is acting butt hurt, it's true, it is a good part of why he is getting so much attention, a perfect mixture of Asain, NY media, the team, how much he was passed up on, and his played. Except the reasons you listed go in reverse order if you were to list why he is getting so much attention. Pretty sad to see one minority degrading another. Mayweather has to feel stupid as [expletive] now after the shit Lin pulled tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted February 15, 2012 Owner Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Floyd is jealous that Lin is taking over New York, while he is fighting in an era of boxing that benefits him greatly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
