"Monkey" is a well-known racist term. Obviously you didn't mean it as one though.

no, its a well known racist term
if you didn't know and didn't mean it that way, cool, I didn't think you did, but there's no "if you think that its racist then you're thinking racist thoughts" about it, believe me I'm from the deep deep South (not like the South's the only racist place but that's besides the point), I've heard all the racist terms there are and monkey's one of the oldest.
Obviously we are talking about blacks right? I dont think "monkey" can be a racist term for any race. Look at sugar shane, bhop, winky, none of them look anything close to a monkey. Shane can probably get any girl he wanted if he wasnt married. "monkey" as I sai it is just an individual insult, I would never lable a whole race anything because its unfair. I use it on floyd because he do look like a complete replica of a monkey. ;D If we were talking about floyd sr then i would of said "predator" because if we put a pic of the predator and floyd sr side by side, they too would look like a complete replica of one another :D
But anyway, racist is still out there. I apologize if anybody thought I meant it in any racist way. I know how it feels to be racially attack, I do not want to make another person feel that way. It is an awful feeling, nobody deserves that not even floyd even though i think his boxings PUSSY OF ALL TIME ;D
I didn't think you meant anything by it.
I was just disagreeing about what you said to CFH about it. To you it wasn't a racist remark but the fact is its long been a racist remark. Believe me, go to Alabama (or Mississippi or wherever) and ask somebody what the term "porch monkey" refers to.
Anyway, no biggie, I never really thought you meant anything by it, was just seconding what CFH said.
This is the never ending post, but i've got to respond. I dont believe this but lets just say that when Oscar fought Manny that he was drained, was over worked. Why did all the experts, all the high rollers in vegas have their money on DLH? All of the HBO commentators thought DLH would be to big and to strong. No one and I repeat NO ONE said oscar was drained until he lost and that JT is a fact. Oscar was saying he was in the best shape of his life, Angelo Dundee said Oscar looked great. Its not fair to Manny Pacquiao for people to act like Oscar was old and drained because he just wasnt. You have not once have given credit for Paquiao annialating Oscar. Speed is speed. DLH couldnt stop that left hand if he had all advantages down to glove type ect. God rest his soul but dont try to compare corrales with Pacquiao man honestly! Speed, chin, footwork, everything about Pacquiao is better. Im not saying Mayweather is a bad fighter, obviously he's not, I just dont think he's the best in the world right now, and I dont think he can beat Manny Pacquiao at the moment. I know I've said this a thousand times but the chances of Ricky Hatton beating Pacquiao are about 1 in a 100. Hatton cant hit whats not there, I dont care how much he pressures him. Once again when Manny and Floyd fight (and they will) I think mayweather will land some shots, just not as many as Pacman. In the end it boils down to Pacquiao's movement. Head goes side to side continually, bounces on both feet in and out. Mayweather has never fought someone that moves like Pacquiao and I think it will frustrate him the whole night!
dont forget Corrales, Castillo, Gatti, Judah, etc floyd has more names than Pac does on his list so its no comparison. and are u aware that floyd is a 5 division champ and hasnt been beat nor how can pac beat floyd hmmmmm. u cant answer that cause its never been done FACT ;)
