Mayweather's Attitude Stinks

Great. You think his last two fights were boxing clinics. JMM's last fight was a boxing clinic, those DLH-Baldo fights are not. How a person thinks gives clues on how he fights in the ring. Hence, attitude analysis is relevant to a boxing discussion. You're just mad that the current whipping boy happens to be your favorite fighter. Not my favorite fighter. Sorry if you thought you knew me that well...you don't. Anyway, I wouldn't/didn't call the DLH fight a clinic, but the Baldo fight was for sure. You are just mad that you watch Floyd fight just to see him get KO'd, and no one has been able to do it...yet. I even stated that I didn't join this discussion to defend his fighting style or anything like that, just curious as to why everyone cares so much about celebertiy attitudes. Anyway whatever bud, keep watching Floyd just to watch him get KO'd, if thats what works for you. History has shown that eventually it'll happen if he keeps fighting. When it does happen, I'm sure you'll feel real validated, though I'm not sure why. Whatever floats your boat, my friend.

He gave the interview but doesnt want it in his training camp..Pointless thread me think. Just another hate thread for Mayweather. The guy who made this thread is complaining that Mayweather doesn't want a media member around him 24/7.

Thats what I think this whole thing boils down to. Look, I'm picking Mayweather based on ring skills. Thats it. But some how if you do that on this forum, your looked at as a "Mayweatherite" or a nuthugger. Yeah Floyd comes off as a arrogant, cocky, flashy dude. But really, when it comes down to it, the people that bring up these things are usually not trying to convey WHY Hatton will win. It's usually a whole bunch of paparazzi type of dudes that hang on Mayweathers every move, think that Mayweather slighted there "favorite" fighter, and make 18 fucking threads about Mayweathers alleged transgression. Who gives a shit? In the end, it really isn't that big of a deal to me who wins this fight. If Hatton can somehow pull out a win, it's not going to be the end of the world to me. But some of the Mayweather haters on here, I swear, if Hatton wins, it will make their decade. It's fucking lame. If Hatton wins, congrats to him. If Mayweather wins, how many more threads will we see about "Mayweather ducked my uncle back in 87, so he is a pussy"? type of shit? Dec the 9th should be VERY interesting on this board... The Hatton dickriders will be either complaining about the ref or they will be not posting for a while.

Why do ppl worry so much about the fighters attitude OUTSIDE THE RING. Whenever Mayweather wins,he usually shows props to the other fighter. I guess alot of you guys didnt get the memo. Boxing is a business,until its threw you guys head that thats what it is,you'll all be lost. You're right, 20 minutes of humility a year should be enough for anyone. He's a great guy.

Why are you so defensive about Floyd? Why are you so OFFENSIVE when it comes to Floyd, you are his biggest nuthugger fan or foe YOU are the biggest nuthugger on the board budd.

Where was the boxing in his last two fights? Where? Baldo and de la hoya? I don't understand the question. He outboxed Baldomir for the WBC and Ring championship belts, maybe gave up 2 rounds. Maybe. He outboxed DLH for a split decision. You can say "He fought a boring fight" or "he didn't mix it up enough for me" but to ask "where was the boxing" is pretty silly. The fight with Baldo especially was a boxing clinic... Look guys, I'm not even in this thread to defend Floyd's fighting style. All I'm saying is a lot of famous people are assholes, who cares? Keyshawn Johnson is one of my favorite receivers of all time. You think I care that he's a jackass? He wrote a fucking book called "Just Give Me The Damn Ball" for God's sake. A lot of you all size up celeberties attitudes like you are looking for a potenial husband, yet you have the audacity to call their fans "nuthuggers". Think about it.

...I think he didint want sky sports in his camp knowing how hes being portrayed overseas, sports people, not just boxers, tend to have their preferences on who their interviewed by and how, if they know a certain reporter, or new station has been slanting them in a certain way, some people wont do an interview period. In all honesty i think this thread is pointless and this happens alot more than you think. Atheletes always have their preference with media, which is why you see the same guys sometimes on the same channels, or flatout refusing to be talked to or asked question by certain media/reporters. I think youre overreacting and this is a perfect case of pointless nitpicking of a fighter you simply dont like. He didint say he wouldnt do the interview, he didint want it all in his training camp, so stop whining. How he is portrayed overseas? He is potrayed as the best boxer on the planet. What does he expect - a knighthood from the Queen? I don't care if athletes have their preferences within the media, that is to be expected, but I know for a fact that most sports stars, at least in the UK, do not act like spoiled little brats in the way Floyd did in this instance.

Why don't you just stop being a little bitch? Why the hell do you care so much about somebody else? Just fucking drop it. I don't care that much, I am merely pointing out that Floyd Mayweather appears to have an attitude problem.

...I think he didint want sky sports in his camp knowing how hes being portrayed overseas I don't think he can have any complaints about how he's portrayed in the UK. SHowing up to the Manchester pres conference with a huge wad of dollar bills is always going to rub people up the wrong way. Mind you with the value of the greenback these days perhaps he wasjust trying to buy a starbucks latte.

Floyd is such a douche. How in the world can this guy call himself a "fighter"? like you? i guess you know your own kind.

The following is an extract from a report from by a British commentator which can be read in full at this link. On Monday and Tuesday I worked with London based cameraman Stuart Vickery. A couple of weeks ago he got the call to fly to Vegas and film some training plus a sit down interview for Sky Sports News. Local reporter Jon Saraceno, who's known Floyd since his amateur days, arranged the meeting. Stuart set up his lights for the one on one and was ready to go, until Floyd heard his accent. Then the pound-for-pound king branded our man "the enemy" and "disrespectful". He insisted the interview, location and all the lights be moved. What an absolute cock of man. I hope Hatton breaks his face. ...I think he didint want sky sports in his camp knowing how hes being portrayed overseas, sports people, not just boxers, tend to have their preferences on who their interviewed by and how, if they know a certain reporter, or new station has been slanting them in a certain way, some people wont do an interview period.

this thread is stupid. wow, mayweather is cocky? thanks for the update brah! i will say that my cousin met him and said floyd was real cool and appreciative of the support. i think this was right before or after the gatti fight. i saw other people on here who met floyd said the same thing. take it how you want.

Listen mate..Am not into your whole bash this one and all that stuff, I dont see anybody critising tsyzu or his behaviour making the headlines ..It just goes to show that every little thing about Mayweather seems to make a bloody thread, When is all this craziness going to stop. So what if this isnt a cold war? You dont seem to understand the whole concept..He moved the interview into other place because the Tv company are skysports so whats so bad in that? Am a hatton fan and a boxing fan and a sensible one at that..Am not going to bash mayweather for it..Just like i didnt bash tsyzu for chasing us out of the gym in Manchester. Its not my or yours fight..You dont know better that Team Mayweather or Team Hatton...as long as the interview was granted then the rest is just ladies handbags. But the difference will be after the fight, kostya was most humble in defeat and even offered hatton further advice for the future. Im certain mayweather win or loose will just run his mouth, but each to their own.

I don't buy into your comment about 95% of famous people being jackasses but it doesn't matter because nobody is asking to be friends with them all I'm asking for is basic courtesy and approachability when carrying out their media commitments. Why don't you just stop being a little bitch? Why the hell do you care so much about somebody else? Just fucking drop it.

You guys should watch boxers box, and stop putting so much stock into their attitudes and personal lives. You sound like a bunch of women. NEWS FLASH: 95% of all famous people are jackasses. 95% of them would not sit and have a drink with you if they met you on the street, regardless of how nice you think they look on camera. Watch famous athletes do whatever it is that got them famous and be happy with that. They are not your friends, they do not need you to check their attitudes.

He is only arrogant and trying to have famous boyfriends like 50 cent and talking about his bitches and bling because he is so insecure. It's pathetic. Fuck Floyd.
