On Nov. 28, YouTube celebrity Jake Paul knocked out former New York Knicks point guard Nate Robinson in his second professional bout. The fight ended in the second round, and many people who have laughed at Paul over his celebrity status and antics weren’t laughing.

“Jake, considering where we are right now in our racial conversation in America, was what you did to Nate Robinson racist?” Hill asked.

She laughed, so perhaps she was being sarcastic to a degree. But Champion opined that Hill’s query was the “question of the week.”

“Stop playing with me, come on,” Paul responded.

“It’s a sensitive time right now,” Hill said. “We just had to witness a white man just knock a black man smooth out in front of all of America, so that’s why I asked that.”

Paul attempted to take the interview in a more serious direction and explained how much preparation went into his fight. The young man also paid respect to his opponent.

“Boxing is a sport and you train to win … I worked hard for this,” he said.

After a brief apparent WiFi issue, Paul rejoined the hosts and attempted to change the subject with a joke. It didn’t work out.

“Let’s start from the beginning. First and foremost, was it racist to knock a black man out?” Champion asked him.

“No, stop asking me that. I said no. It’s a s—ty question,” Paul fired back. “It’s a sport.”

“Why is it a s—ty question?” Champion responded. “Why is it a s—ty question?”

“How does this have anything to do with race? It doesn’t,” Paul stated before slapping himself in the head.

“It’s a fine question. We’ve got to wake you up,” Champion said.

Violent Protests and Riots are Peaceful so long as Leftists are doing it. Police, Prosecutors, Judges, stand down when Left Commits Crime. Murder Threats are Idle, "No weapon Found" when left makes them. Admitting to rigging an election with the most elaborate election fraud system in the history of the US is a gaffe when the left says it. Having money that you did not spend and saved is privilege when a white person saved it. Getting stabbed is a crime when the extremist left is on the wrong end of the knife.

Unfortunately this is the world we live in. Hopefully that pendulum starts swinging the other way.
