Floyd Mayweather Jr., who has steadfastly refused to answer questions about the most recent round of failed negotiations for a fight with Manny Pacquiao, has unleashed a profanity-filled racist and homophobic Internet rant against the Filipino star.
In an approximately 10-minute UStream video, apparently made Thursday and also posted on YouTube, Mayweather repeated his assertion that Pacquiao uses performance-enhancing drugs, an accusation that resulted in a defamation lawsuit from Pacquiao earlier this year.
"I'm on vacation for about a year, about a year," Mayweather said. "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 d---. So you all better get on the bandwagon now. ... Once I stomp the midget, I'll make that mother f----- make me a sushi roll and cook me some rice."
Mayweather's publicist, in Mexico for another fighter's promotion, has seen the video but has been unable to reach Mayweather or adviser Leonard Ellerbe. Kelly Swanson said she would not comment further.
Attempts by ESPN.com to reach Ellerbe were also unsuccessful.
"The video speaks for itself," Pacquiao said in a statement given to ESPN.com by his publicist, Fred Sternburg.
Animated as ever, Mayweather at times spoke directly to the camera and at other times kept the recording running while he made calls to fans who had posted messages to his UStream and Twitter pages.
The tirade came as Pacquiao is in the midst of a three-city media tour to promote his Nov. 13 fight with Antonio Margarito -- a bout taking place only because Mayweather refused to fight him.
But Mayweather sure made it sound as though the fight with Pacquiao, boxing's biggest bout and the fight many believe will shatter all revenue records in boxing history, will eventually happen. They have already had two rounds of negotiations fail -- in January and again during the spring.
"At this particular time I don't know if I'm gonna fight again," Mayweather said. "As of right now, I truly believe I am gonna fight again, but as of right now I don't have the urge to get up. But when I do got the urge to get up, believe me my UStream and my Twitter fans will be the first to know, and when we do come back, we will kick 'Poochiao' ass. So I'll let the fans know. Don't worry, we'll kick 'Poochiao' ass. He's gonna take the urine and blood test."
All terms had been agreed to in January for Mayweather and Pacquiao to meet in March, except for the drug-testing protocol. Mayweather had demanded that he and Pacquiao submit to random blood and urine tests throughout the buildup to the fight. Pacquiao agreed to random urine tests, but they could not come to an agreement on the blood-testing protocol and the fight plans imploded.
Pacquiao went on to easily defeat Joshua Clottey on March 13. Mayweather went on to easily outpoint Shane Mosley on May 1.
Then a second round of negotiations failed and Pacquiao signed to fight Margarito.
During this week's media tour to promote the bout, Pacquiao said he gave in to Mayweather's testing demands during the second round of negotiations.
"We agree with, you know, his demands," Pacquiao said. "I wanted to know if that's his real reason [for not signing to fight]."
Mayweather's camp has denied the second round of negotiations ever took place, even though Pacquiao's promoter, Bob Arum, insisted that they did, with HBO Sports president Ross Greenburg serving as the intermediary. Arum's version was backed up by Greenburg, despite the Mayweather camp's denials.
During the video, Mayweather also went on a rant about Pacquiao's record, even though Pacquiao has not lost a fight since 2005, and made incorrect comments about the money each had received for recent fights and endorsements.
" 'Poochiao' got three losses and two draws and been knocked out twice," Mayweather said. "So, like I said before, once I beat him it's going to be a cakewalk and it's on to the next. ... We know Pacquiao made $6 million in his last fight and Floyd Mayweather made $65 million in his last fight. Three losses, two draws. Ohhh, hell no, this is America baby. We built on winning. Step your game up, f----t. ... That mother f----- Pacquiao, he can't speak no English. He never seen a contract he didn't like. Mother f----- signed with two companies [Top Rank and Golden Boy]. Look it up. And then this mother f------ with Nike only got 70 Gs. How stupid can a mother f----- be? Reebok gave me a million dollars for three weeks. I wore Reebok s--- for a week for a million dollars. ... This mother f------'s name is Emmanuel. He got a fake name, taking power pellets."
Mayweather also broke out into a bizarre song in which he called Pacquiao a "whore" and added: "When we do come back, we'll kick 'Poochiao's' ass. I'm gonna fight the Pacman when he gets off the power pellets."
At the beginning of the fight negotiations months ago I wanted Mayweather to stay undefeated, but after everything that has happened I hope Pacquiao knocks that bitch out. But considering the fact that Mayweather has a vagina, I don't see the fight happening anytime soon.

Smart man. Now he will get even more people to buy the fight for the hopes of gettign his ass kicked when the fight actually takes place.

Damn Mayweather really has some people controlled lol. LOVE IT. I stopped paying attention to what he says years ago
-
all I know is I really want to see this fight go down

I haven't really payed much attention to boxing but it's obvious he's self promoting, but I was gonna get the fight regardless. I just think he went way overboard with all that racist shit. If Pacquiao called him a blackie or darkie or some shit like that he's probably get kicked out of boxing.

Whatup daygo, still love black people's racism? :D

Fuckin' double standards.

Sure there might be a bigger uproar (mainly due to the history of the sport), but this Mayweather deal was pretty big. It was all over the internet and friends who don't really talk about boxing were talking about it. Neither will get kicked out of boxing though.
-
Regardless, will floyd get most of the money?

Bullshit, you know damn well there would be a big up roar. Muthafuckin Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and the whole fuckin media would be on this...

Yeah Mayweather's the truth only a real g would dodge Pacquiao for months and continue to talk shit.

It's not just one sided. With egos involved, you think some douche like Mayweather will all of a sudden accept to terms with Pacquiao after Pacquiao came up with lousy excuses as well?
-
They both got a lot to lose if they get defeated in this fight. There aren't very many options out there in boxing at the moment. Not too many other avenues to travel. I have a feeling they're just gonna exhaust any other money-producing fights they can get in the next year or two until there is no other option but to face each other.

Very true. And the thing is people might say, oh well what about a rematch...but I think their styles won't allow that. It's going to be a convincing win no matter what. I can see Mayweather shutting down Pac and even maybe TKO him and I can also see Pac just knocking the hell out of Mayweather.

Whatup daygo, still love black people's racism? :D
What are u talkin about? Mayweather is an idiot. Its not about whether he is Black or not. The US is not Germany. My point on racism in the US is only that there IS a difference in a racist mindset from Whites as opposed to minorities. Its not BECAUSE they are White. Its because they are in power. If Hispanics, Blacks, or Asians ran the country...racism from THEM would be worse than racism from Whites. Racism from the bottom doesnt nearly have the impact that racism from the top does.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. was arrested by police in his hometown of Las Vegas on Friday and released on bail a few hours later.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal first reported the arrest, with police later confirming it. Mayweather was charged with grand larceny, which, under Nevada law, involves theft of property over $250.
The charge is in connection with an alleged incident early Thursday morning involving the mother of three of his children, Josie Harris. She sought a protection order Thursday from a family court judge, alleging that Mayweather threatened her.
The boxer said nothing as he left the Clark County jail after surrendering for booking on the charge. Bail was $3,000 US.
Mayweather's lawyer, Richard Wright, said Mayweather is innocent of the charge.
"He did not commit any grand larceny," Wright told The Associated Press. "Josie can't find her iPhone."
Police said Thursday that Harris was treated at a Las Vegas hospital for minor injuries.
Mayweather, 33, could still face more charges, a police spokesperson told the newspaper.
If so, the undefeated boxer could be jeopardizing his career and a potential superfight with Manny Pacquiao.
While Harris previously recanted allegations of domestic violence at a trial in 2005, Mayweather managed to avoid jail in separate incidents involving women between 2002 and 2005 where he pleaded to, or was found guilty of, assault.
In the first case he received a six-month suspended sentence and two days of house arrest. In the second, he was given a one-year suspended sentence and ordered to undergo counselling.
Mayweather last fought in May, when he survived some rocky moments in the second round before cruising to a one-sided, unanimous decision victory over veteran Shane Mosley.
Mayweather, who is originally from Grand Rapids, Mich., got into hot water last week for an internet chat in which he used racial and homophobic slurs in reference to Pacquiao, the Philippine boxing superstar.
Negotiations to pit the two in a bout that would be boxing's most lucrative ever fizzled in January over the issue of Olympic-style blood testing and reportedly haven't been broached again.
Mayweather later apologized for the remarks.

No big deal. He just hired his baby mama to be his sparring partner.

I love how good his mug shot turned out. Would never know where that pic was from, lol.
Pretty Boy. *NO HOMO*
