A few days after making his controversial comments on a video streaming network, Floyd Mayweather Jr. returned to Ustream late Friday night to clear the air with his fans and the boxing public.
When Mayweather appeared on Ustream several days ago, some of his comments resulted in a mountain of negative press from the media and harsh comments from the boxing fans who watched the profane video.
Some of the comments Mayweather made from several days ago, like "cook him up with some barbecued dog" and "cook that yellow chump" and "I'll make that mother f**ker make me a sushi roll and cook me some rice" and "this mother f**cker's name is Emmanuel. He got a fake name, taking power pellets" - sent a tidalwave of negative air in Mayweather's direction.
When Mayweather returned on the service late Friday night, he apologized to everyone for the comments. He made few excuses and said he "didn't really mean" any of it.
"I do want to apologize for what happened the other night. I want to apologize to everybody because everybody thought that it was a racist comment that I said. I dont have a racist bone in my body. I have nothing but love for everybody. Some of my guys are Muslim, some of my guys are Jews. Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, whites, ...it doesn't matter. I got nothing but love in my heart. All i want to say is, if anybody was affected from what I said the other day, I apliogize as a man. I was just having fun. I didnt really mean it," Mayweather said.
Prior to the apology, Mayweather discussed a possible fight with Pacquiao. He wants Pacquiao confident and ready to win, but also made it clear that a Pacquiao win won't happen.
"Manny Pacquiao, he truly believe that he's one of the best, but I know that I am the best. that's the difference," Mayweather said.
"I want him to believe that he's going to win. All 41 opponents that I faced thought that they were going to win, but that didn't happen."
During the broadcast, Mayweather sent his condolences to his former promoter Bob Arum for the recent loss of his oldest son, John, who lost his life as a result of a hiking accident in Seattle, Washington.
"God bless to Bob Arum and his whole family, because I heard that Bob Arum's son had a bad accident. Love to the whole Arum family," Mayweather said.

"A Pacquiao win won't happen. " I agree, because Mayweather's NEVER gonna fight him! Heheh.

Mayweather! don't SAY if you don't mean it! Filipino's are intelligent people! Your insuting HON.MANNY PACQUIAO! Your also insuting our country! Don't TALK to much! Let your GLOVES do the talking! C'mon if your NOT AFRAID to fight PACMAN! Tell him WHEN & WHERE this fight will HAPPEN!
kindly return this guy (maynever)to the jungle where he belongs..
How can he Beat Pacquiao if he don't want to fight?
For the first time the he knew the word apology. This is a very big change of heart and an educated one. Maybe Mayweather realizes lately that he could not move against the media especially after the denial of the proposed fight against Pacquiao. It is a small start but good one. Nevertheless, much more is needed in the future that this is the real thing and not one-off. We just wait and see.
stop running away gayweather! i can't imagine anyone who would wanna be associated w/ such a racist badmouthing person. all his sponsors should just drop him!!!
May weather weather pala ang utak nito, Mayweather has brain damage and he is one of the most coward person i know, all talking and no fight with pacman makes mayweather jr. a dull boy!
too many excuses..your not a fighter, but a dancing boxer !
Maywether is a slave minded hahahha
Pacquiao versus May-NEVER?? hahaha
Actually Mayweather wants to Fight Pacquiao...He wants Bobby Pacquiao and not Manny Pacquiao..hehehehe...
i bet floyd just realized that manny IS a congressman that's why he apologized. Gayweather just showed he's a coward and he's gotten even more afraid of Pacquiao.
