MSNBC Newscaster pissed that little guys are boxing
post #1

Came across this clip again from almost a decade ago and wanted to share.

It was MSNBC sports anchor Melissa Harris Perry pissed that the biggest fighters at the time were not heavyweights or larger guys.

You can find the original MSNBC clip here.

Floyd was without a doubt the greatest boxer ever and all we get in a snarky voice is, "why do we care so much about little guys".

Shows that to a lot of women, height is always what matters first.

You can only imagine what her response would be if the same comment were about female athletes by male news anchors.

I know that reporter. She's the first one to cry a river when other forms of bigotry takes place.

These types are usually the biggest hypocrites.

Melissa Harris Perry has been unlikable forever. 

Her "concern" is framed so it sounds like people really care about the fact that these boxers are short, but the truth is no one cares but her.
