| A few days after making his controversial comments on a video streaming network, Floyd Mayweather Jr. returned to Ustream late Friday night to clear the air with his fans and the boxing public. When Mayweather appeared on Ustream several days ago, some of his comments resulted in a mountain of negative press from the media and harsh comments from the boxing fans who watched the profane video. Some of the comments Mayweather made from several days ago, like "cook him up with some barbecued dog" and "cook that yellow chump" and "I'll make that mother f**ker make me a sushi roll and cook me some rice" and "this mother f**cker's name is Emmanuel. He got a fake name, taking power pellets" - sent a tidalwave of negative air in Mayweather's direction. When Mayweather returned on the service late Friday night, he apologized to everyone for the comments. He made few excuses and said he "didn't really mean" any of it. "I do want to apologize for what happened the other night. I want to apologize to everybody because everybody thought that it was a racist comment that I said. I don't have a racist bone in my body. I have nothing but love for everybody. Some of my guys are Muslim, some of my guys are Jews. Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, whites, ...it doesn't matter. I got nothing but love in my heart. All i want to say is, if anybody was affected from what I said the other day, I apologize as a man. I was just having fun. I didn't really mean it," Mayweather said. Prior to the apology, Mayweather discussed a possible fight with Pacquiao. He wants Pacquiao confident and ready to win, but also made it clear that a Pacquiao win won't happen. "Manny Pacquiao, he truly believes that he's one of the best, but I know that I am the best, that's the difference," Mayweather said. "I want him to believe that he's going to win. All 41 opponents that I faced thought that they were going to win, but that didn't happen." During the broadcast, Mayweather sent his condolences to his former promoter Bob Arum for the recent loss of his oldest son, John, who lost his life as a result of a hiking accident in Seattle, Washington. "God bless to Bob Arum and his whole family, because I heard that Bob Arum's son had a bad accident. Love to the whole Arum family," Mayweather said. http://www.boxingscene.com/?m=show&id=30633 |

| It wasn't even just the politically incorrect comments, (I think the word 'racism is misused, and thrown around far to liberally today) it's the chronic lack of respect and arrogance.
Funny how he didn't have a thing to say and avoided questions when the contract to fight Pac was in front of him....it's always after Pac moves on to another fight that Fraud opens his mouth.
Kind of like Haye with the Klitschko brothers, except Haye is not even close to the stature of the Klitschkos or Flod.
I've never fully believed the Floyd is creating a character to sell fights...I don't think he is that bright. I think he is just giving glimpses into his true vile personality. | |

| Calling someone a "yellow" who is Asian is the same as calling a black guy a darkie. | |

| In one of the HBO 24/7 Floyd was at a nail salon getting a manicure, he was incredibly disrespectful to the people there. He was throwing karate chops and making generic king fu movie noises that every kid does when they're five. One can see the absolute disgust on the fact of the woman doing his nails. He s a distespectful weasel. And he's lucky that boxing is a niche sport otherwise he'd lose some serious endorsements. Imagine if Jeter or Tom Brady did anything like that?

Now you're just wondering off point Marble. A thread about Floyd's disgusting comments is no place for bashing Haye. |

Fight offers - check Klitschko's both offered him fights and Sky's clamoring to get Haye to face Harrison. Excitement in potential fights - check fans want to see Haye mix it up with the Klitschko's and Adamek. |
