Whether comedian Adam Carolla was joking or not, his comments about Manny Pacquiao and Filipinos created a buzz and has generated a lot of comments from various blog sites. Carolla, an Italian-American radio host, in a podcast called Pacquiao illiterate and the Philippines a nation of whores.

According to
Examiner.com writer Dennis Guillermo, Carolla began his tirades against Pacquiao when a caller brought up the drug testing issue that called off the proposed megafight between the Filipino boxing icon and Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Carolla blasted Pacquiao for not agreeing on the
drug testing protocol proposed by the
Mayweathers. He also said that
Pacquiao is âpraying to chicken bones" and should not earn the respect and admiration of all Filipinos because heâs a â(expletive) idiot." âHereâs how you know when your country doesnât have a lot going for it: When everything is about Manny Pacquiao. Get a (expletive) life as a country," Carolla said. Carolla then called Pacquiao
illiterate who is only good in distorting his opponentsâ faces. âAll you (expletive) got is just an illiterate guy who happens to smash other guys in the head better than other people" He also made fun of
Pacquiaoâs congressional bid. âReally, you want some guy with brain damage running your country? Why donât you get your (expletive) together?"
Carolla added that the entire country would be disheartened if ever Mayweather Jr. beats Pacquiao. âAll they have over there (in the Philippines) is Manny Pacquiao and sex stores. What happens when Floyd Mayweather beats him? Does your country go into depression?" Carolla is a veteran comedian and a close friend of late-night television show host
Jimmy Kimmel, who ironically had Pacquiao as a
guest last month and last year.
