you can be racist more easily than you can not be down with gay activity in the mainstream media. I ain't mad at Holyfield for standing up for his beliefs.

We're never gonna move forward as a society when we can't express how we really feel about issues.

Like, when Jason Collins came out, it was like 'YOU BETTER OKAY WITH THIS--PRAISE IT & NOTHING ELSE.'

Why can't we have a two-sided talk on this issue?

:huh: And how did a producer scold an ex-Heavyweight Champ, like a child?

Okay, I watched the vid; this is the problem. There's this mafia mentality ppl have towards discussions on homosexuality.

Ol' girl was salty just because he disagreed with him.

And what offsenive langauage did he use?

I don't agree with him 100%, but, dude isn't rambling nonsense. He makes debateble points.

Evander Holyfield sparked a Twitter storm on Sunday night when he classed homosexuality as a disability and claimed it could be 'fixed'.

The former four-time world heavyweight champion made the comments during his stay in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

He was later warned for his outburst, to which he replied he was merely stating his opinion.

Holyfield was being quizzed by The Apprentice runner-up Luisa Zissman about whether any boxers had come out as gay.

She said: 'I think it’s really bad that no-one stands up and says it in the sporting industries. I think it’s good to be open about that because it’s normal.'

But Holyfield replied: 'What would be good about it? That ain’t normal.'

The 51-year-old went on to say: 'It is a choice, come on, that ain’t the way nobody is made.

'If you were born and your leg were turned this way, what do you do, you go to the doctor and get it fixed back right.'

Holyfield was later called to the diary room.

'Before you entered the Big Brother house, the rules regarding unacceptable language and behaviour were explained to you. Last night, in a conversation with Luisa, you expressed the view that being gay was not normal and that it could be fixed,' explained Big Brother.

And he's not exactly wrong for saying that being gay isn't normal. But it doesn't mean that it's bad. But obviously he meant it in a different way.

He never said it was bad either. The fact that she got offended like that means A she knows it is bad B feels guilty


I don't know anything he said could be construed as "unacceptable language" He used no epithets or anything

GayMob just being Gay per usual

you cats defending Evander are full of it.
If a white boy on Tv said some shyt like that about black folks yall would be calling for his head...but youre shocked gay people are acting in the same way.

I do think people over react to idiots...but I dont waver in that opinion....I dont care if its a racist or a homophobe.
