Floyd Mayweather Jr. Unleashes Racist Hatorade On Manny Pacquiao
Floyd Mayweather Jr., the American boxer currently in negotiations to be Pacquiao’s next punching bag, is caught on video in a racist rant against the Filipino boxing champion and congressman, who he calls a “little yellow chump”:
“As soon as we come off vacation, we’re going to cook that little yellow chump. We ain’t worried about that. So they ain’t gotta worry about me fighting the midget. Once I kick the midget ass, I don’t want you all to jump on my dick. So you all better get on the bandwagon now. … Once I stomp the midget, I’ll make that motherfucker make me a sushi roll and cook me some rice.”
To which Pacquiao’s only response should be: “Nigger, please”.
(UPDATE: Mayweather has apologized for the rant. He says he was only joking around. Hold the sushi rolls.)
