Mayweather Apologizes For Making Controversial Racist Remarks To Manny Pacquaio by mamagee3(f): 8:36pm On Sep 04, 2010
Floyd Mayweather Jr. took to the Internet again on Friday, this time to apologize for a profanity-filled racist rant against Manny Pacquiao that he recorded on uStream.com Thursday.

Mayweather continued to mispronounce Pacquiao’s surname, repeatedly referring to him as “Pooch-ee-ow.” But a day after making racist and homophobic comments on uStream, Mayweather offered an apology to those who were offended.

“I do want to apologize for what happened the other night,” Mayweather said. “I want to apologize to everybody. They felt it was a racist comment that came from me. I don’t have a racist bone in my body, you know. I love everybody. Some of my guys are Muslims. Some of my guys are Jews. Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, Mexicans, whites, it doesn’t matter. There is nothing but love in my heart, you know what I’m saying?

“I heard this from a few people. The only thing I want to say is, anybody who was offended by what I said the other day, I apologize as a man. I apologize. Forgive me for saying what I said. I was just having fun. I didn’t really mean it, nothing in a bad way. So let’s stay on this roller coaster ride and keep riding, baby. It’s all love.”

Thanks for the post, Floyd aint mean to sound racist as that happens in boxing, imma take u back to Mohamed Ali  he dissed opponent,  said something to trigger his mind,  its business. He did the same to Mosley callin him fagot tryna fight him when he's close to 40yrs lol

I think its boxing and Pacman wont understand the language cos he aint from the ghetto anyway he has apologized and my boy Floyd still gon whip his a*s next year if he agrees to the test.
