    Sad, using racism as an excuse to promote a fight.

    Against Pac. You guys aren't going to like it when it happens but its going to happen. Personally I think we are getting jobbed by the industry and Arum. Throwing Pac in against carefully selected opponents since the DLH fight has everyone completely misjudging his capabilities and over hyping this fight. I think Mayweather is in very little danger in this fight and when Pac realizes how deep he is in the warrior in him might be a little less entertaining than it's been in the past. A fight against Martinez might shape up to be more entertaining and dangerous for Mayweather.

    The problem with this whole argument is that Manny fans are so damn new to the sport, and such bandwagon jumpers, that they just doesn't know what goes on in boxing.

    Mayweather didn't go to the media, on the media week of the Margarito vs. Pacquiao fight, and trash the golden boy, mock his country, and tell the world he plans to retire the guy in his next fight as he was bothered about upsetting people.

    It was a statement intended to put him on the front foot, give him a heck of a lot of attention, and get what he wants - the entire media talking about him.

    If you think Floyd's appeal, in boxing, has anything to do with what Paclanders think of him, then I'd think you should take a step into reality.

    To put it harshly, other than his PR people putting out a half apology, I doubt he gives a damn that he's upset Manny Pacquiao or his fans

    Paclanders start crying when the head of the USADA stated that boxers should take random drug tests.

    They're not boxing fans.

    Pacquiao fans get no respect, as he just had no support when he was actually fighting the best guys.

    All his fans just jumped on when he got sufficiently famous.

    There isn't a sane pundit on the planet who thinks Manny will beat Mayweather.

    Most fans think Floyd will school the guy, regardless of personality.

    Manny's about 2% better than Marquez

    I have to be honest, I was more annoyed when his PR people apologized for him!

    Floyd trashed Pacquiao, mocked him, insluted him, told the world he'd be his next opponent, and that he planned to retire him, and make him cook his dinner once he'd schooled the guy.

    He also made a new name for the guy - poochiao

    If you now think Manny has any legitimacy to not accept any terms he's offered, you live in dream world.

    Fight will happen. With full drug testing.

    Manny's a plain girl, if he's not going to come back to this, wanting to murder the guy

    People actually enjoyed that though/thought it was charming. There is no comparison between some guy singing a song on tv in engrish and a fighter putting himself on youtube, assaulting a guy he will not meet in the ring verbally, with racism to boot, and this. the only way you could make such a comparison is if you are a dumb human being.
