      How come people get mad at Floyd but Pac Man brags about being the Mexican killer, Mexican legend killer, or the Mexican Assasin and no one gets mad about that?

          it was all for show... so u could root against him and make threads about him and it worked... i do feel u though it would be annoying if I was in your shoes but hey hes been playing the villain for a while u should expect these things

            It's already been said that he didnt do it to disrespect the crowd, he said it on the jay leno show but jay leno kept trying to get floyd to say that he did it to disrespect the crowd till finally floyd said just a lil bit but he said it was mainly to intimidate Oscar.

              And no, it was not a show of respect that had Floyd coming out with sombrero and t-shirts. That said, I found it hilarious. He came out trying to stir the pot and he did so. Hats off to you. It was just another element of a truly big event.
              Then tell me why every Mexican trys to disaccociate themselves from him.. instead of just stating "he isn't Mexican"? Is he half? Or are the Mexicans just ******ed?

                  lol what does this have to do with boxing?

                  if your butt hurt about this stuff in boxing, then stop watching the sport. people will always be mad that Mexicans are the only non white or black entity in the sport that have always consistantly held it down in the ring. it bothers them and it always will. lol so deal with it. dont bring it here and complain, especially when this has nothing to do with boxing. grow some cojones..

                  but I'm still waitin for that one Mexican joker to walk into the ring wearing bushman's outfit to make fun of any black fighter, lol that **** would be classic.

                      I don't think Pacquiao ever did brag about that. Matter of fact, Pacquiao says that Mexican boxers are the toughest. Fans and the likes are the ones who label him the Mexican Assasin, same way they labeled that to Roger Mayweather.

                      As for Floyd, it depends on how you view it. I doubt he was disrespecting the Mexican culture, more like trying to get a different demographic on his side. Thought it's kinda hard to accept that because Roger Mayweathers (as mentioned earlier) did the same thing.
