Freddie Roach, who is considered to be Manny's mentor by many, simply considers Floyd's remarks as a cheap low blow. Nothing more nothing less.
Ok. So here's how see it. If an apology from Floyd is not sufficient to the Filipino fan base and some casual observers the world over --
Why doesn't Manny get on the horn and challenge Floyd to a duel on behalf of all Filipinos for his offending remarks?
After all, they're both fighters who look to settle their differences as men inside a squared circle, and prove to the world who the best P4P fighter in the world is. And Manny has already been quoted 'recently' as saying he "agreed to testing any time, any day", Right?
The Filipino fan base should be urging Manny to make Floyd put his money where his mouth is and call Floyd out on live TV to settle this issue once and for all and restore honor to the Philippine nation.
Freddie Roach -- of all people -- merely called Floyd's remarks "A cheap low blow." ???????
A Cheap LOW Blow??? That's it????
And nobody from Team Pacquiao nor the multitude of Manny's fanbase are criticizing Freddie for downplaying what is perhaps the most vial, offensive, and hurtful vitriol hurled at one of the most admired fighters of this era???
Something ain't right.
its one week later
the world doesn't care anymore.Dude said just enough to get people riled up for a day or two. Nothing but stupid jokes told in the middle of the night.
........No, he's not (many feel this way).....
On A Side Note: Floyd fans are keeping this crap going as much as anyone else.
It's what I'm getting at. If Freddie calls it merely 'a cheap low blow' and doesn't catch any flack for keeping it simple and willing to move on, why are Pacquiao fans dialing 9-1-1 and blowing it out of proportion?
Not making any sense. Maybe if Manny himself 'wrote' an article telling everyone to calm the f*ck down, then maybe people would chill out.
You're one of the few who thinks that way, man. One of the few. But I agree.
........No, he's not. More than just a few feel this way.....

i don't like floyd.
i don't like his attitude and his persona.
that said this is a non issue.
it was a small issue when it happened , a non issue since he apologized.
the guy just wanted some attention and said some things he shouldn't.
the stuff he said ain't even that bad. he has to watch what he says though because he's a public figure.
Some people will not let it go until they actually get it on. Let's see if Manny agrees to random testing in the next round of negotiations as Bob is hopeful will take place.

it is.
he said some stupid **** , racist or not doesn't matter , he got criticized and he apologized.
it's over with.
mofo's from both sides just can't let go.
who gives a **** if he is racist or isn't racist.
not my problem.

I cant believe Manny wont go ahead and take this fight for his people, take down the racist Manny.
I get the feeling the only place Manny can win is any place else but inside a ring.
It's apparently not that simple.

floyd already apologized.
everyone needs to move the **** on.
floyd apologists and floyd critics.
It's apparently not that simple.
come on dude where have been all this time?
been lost in the duck world vacation with floyd mayweather jr.?
how many times manny called out floyd after floyd made that statement for him to step into the plate?
then demanded for some crazy bull to stop the fight :///
im sick of this,
if floyd really think manny is too easy to beat then why the heck asking for DRUG freaking test?????
and by the way there is nu such " men" in this negotiation
one is a MAN and the other is a DUCK
Correction dude. Manny has never called Floyd out. Manny's fans and his ghostwriter called Floyd out, but not Manny. Floyd requested drug testing when Bob thought is wasn't such a bad idea in the first place, then Bobby and Team started the backtracking.
I'm certain Manny's fans would love to see Manny whoop Floyd's azz.
u can tell floyd didnt mean it. he probably planned this whole situation. its a joke
What do you think Floyd should give up to the fans in addition to an apology?
No officer G Dogs. It's apparent Floyd's apology is not enough to warrant forgiveness. This from a large fan base who believes God forgives all wrong doers.
So, short of giving up blood, sweat and tears, they should have Manny call Floyd out to show the world that those offending remarks will not be tolerated, is all I'm saying.

Bob Arum needs to get his all his in house money before this fight happens..after margarito its nobody else in top rank for pac to fight..so this fight will happen in 2011..or maybe the Chavez Jr-Cotto winner or loser which is more custom to their picking..but i hope this fight happen im getting tired of this **** truthfully
so your backing up floyd racist comments?
