But the real question is...is he apologizing because he was really sorry he said it? Or was he just apologizing after protests began to rise against him?

See, these racist rants, no matter who it came from, and despite them apologizing after they said it...I still think they meant every single word the time they said it.

If they didn't want to "offend" anybody, then they shouldn't have said anything racist in the first place... filmed it... and put it in YouTube. Would have saved them a lot of time. Ours too.

He didn't disavow any of his words. He said he wasn't intending to be racist. I think he meant what he said, but he intended people to react like he just burned Pacquiao and insulted him really bad. Like I said, insulting the competition (esp. before a fight) is very common in boxing. Who knows if he harbors racial prejudices (most people do), but I don't think he's a raving racist. We certainly have worse types at AF.
