Calvin Abueva is ready to move on from a post-game fracas that saw him engage in a shouting match against Mo Tautuaa's wife, Aida, last Sunday. 

The Magnolia forward said he already settled the score with Tautuaa after apologizing to Aida in the aftermath of a 103-85 loss to San Miguel in Game 2. 

"We talked to each other and OK na kami and that time sige I apologize[d] to Mo's wife," he said in an interview with Denise Tan before Game 3 on Wednesday.

That's not the case with his wife, though. 

"And I don't know [with] my wife kung anong gagawin niya about the... I don't know kung ano 'yung nakita dun sa video o ano, basta may gagawin na, di ko alam kung anong gagawin ng wife ko." 

Abueva added he also reached out to Beermen coach Jorge Gallent. 

With 9:52 remaining in the fourth period of Sundat's game, the Beast and Gallent got into a verbal altercation. It was later revealed the enigmatic forward mocked the latter's physical disability. 

Consequently, Abueva was slapped with a P100,000 fine for such gesture that was caught on camera. 

"Pumuso and nag-thumbs up," Abueva said when asked what Gallent's reaction was when he messaged the SMB mentor shortly after the game. 

"I know na di pa tapos 'yung series, siguro makapagusap kami after this series siyempre. This is not intention for outside na nangayri samin this is only [inside the] court." 

It looks like all is well between the two though, after they were seen hugging it out before Game 3 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
