“I’m not black, I am Stephen A……….OKAY”
What in the blue hell is Stephen A. Smith talking about? When McGregor is calling black men boys/monkeys and disrespecting black women that has an affect on all of us.
Just because he wasn’t specifically referring to you, doesn’t make it any better.
Here is what Stephen A. had to say via Sporting News.
“This notion that Conor McGregor was racist or whatever, I don’t want to hear that, and I don’t believe that for one second,” Smith said. “As an African-American, I did not look at Conor McGregor and say, ‘He is talking to me.'”
“To me, it is him against Mayweather,” Smith said. “I did not view it as him talking against black people. I know the difference and that is not what I got from Conor McGregor at all.”
This is small-minded way of viewing things.
McGregor maybe trying to rattle Mayweather, but what about all his fans who now think it is ok to call black men monkeys or see black women as sexual objects.
Once again Stephen A. just thinking about himself and himself only. We shouldn’t be surprised by that.
Flip the pages to hear some of McGregor’s racist taunts…
