I don't know I thought it was funny?
Lighten up guys, it's just Floyd being Floyd, he's good at winding people up and selling the fight. It should be Pac-May after the Margarito fight.

And tell me I'm wrong, but wasn't the Ali-Frazier fight signed when he made any comments? The Pac fight isn't even close to signed. Therefore, the point about hyping the fight up doesn't make sense because there isn't even a fight to hype up. Mayweather probably has another fight before he fights Pacquiao for that matter. Or maybe he's trying to publicize Pacquiao's fight with Margarito? Sure.
And that Pacquiao fans say racist things about black people has nothing to do with this at all. They are fans! No one cares what they say. They aren't in the public eye. Mayweather is a crossover star. He's been on Dancing with the Stars and Wrestlemania and has fans all over the world. It's a shame he acts this way. It really is. There is no way to forgive this really.
It's odd, isn't it, that this was made only a few weeks after Pacquiao and Margarito started their publicity tour when Mayweather has nothing planned? I believe it was an ill-advised way to get back in the spotlight.
These comments coupled with his "uncle sam" comment about Manny Steward, it's no wonder people dislike him.
And for the record, I think he beats Pacquiao if the fight gets made. However, if I were Manny, I probably wouldn't even fight him at this point. I'd just clean out the division and retire.
And if Floyd's racist rant wasn't classy enough, he's in the news again,
