Well, it's kinda the same way to us (Filipino) with the word "Flip". Do you guys get what I'm saying?
"Flip" to me is only equivalent of "Beaner". But calling someone "gook" or "wetback"... now that's real racial IMO.
It's really not the same, and clearly doesn't have the same history behind it as those other terms. It may be what you call each other but it's not the same as 'nigger', which has centuries of history behind it's offensiveness.
Btw, why do you always look for an opportunity to use that word? I've not noticed other posters as eager to use it as an erroneous example. Like I said, I'm not going to use it, but it's funny how you wouldn't miss an opportunity to drop the 'n-word'
Anyway, I'll leave this well alone now & get back on topic as I've clearly veered this thread off it. JMM imo has beaten everyone he's faced with the exception of Mayweather & the opponent he got DQ'd against. However, both Pacquiao fights were pretty close on my scorecard & nowhere near robberies (113-112 in the first, 115-112 in the 2nd). The defeats to Norwood & John were robberies in my eyes, but certainly the John one, he has Nacho to blame for sending him over to fight a guy he had to KO to get a draw.
