People who think Floyd is a bad person are the worst judge of characters

It doesn't matter if it's part of the hype if you are talking trash and acting cocky to sell the fight then that is clearly a part of you. So what people are saying is that they do not like THAT part of Floyd that PART of Floyd could be seen as a bad person. But as i've said before he has not went out of line so far as to say that he is overall a bad person. He's never killed anyone never raped a woman as far as i know. So if he wants to show off fine but that doesn't mean everyone has to like it.

uppin for the haters

True. But part of being a great SPORTSMAN and AMBASSADOR for the sport is being respectable inside AND outside of the ring. I must say, Mayweather has never crossed the line and really done something illegal like Hatton did on Tszyu in the 7th round I believe it was. But a guy like Hatton more then makes up for it outside the ring. Ya digg?? Nope I don't. Ali is the most famous boxer in the history of the sport and he sure as hell wasn't respectful towards his opponents. Granted, thats why a LOT of people didn't like Ali. Sugar Ray Robinson beat the shit out of his wife and kids and is still remembered by what he did inside the ring. Both are among the biggest icons in the sport. While I respect Floyd for what he does outside of the ring, I don't think it makes a difference at all on how we should view his connection to the sport; that is his personal contribution to the world. He brings viewers to their televisions, he gives journalists a reason to write about boxing, and he gives fans passion towards the sport. That is how his boxing career should be remembered (along with being a great fighter).

Thanks. You speak the truth as well my friend. BTW, who's the chick in your pic? which one? the avatar is Lauren London, the sig is Esther Baxter

thanks for the grammar lesson, sorry i type fast and don't reread everything i type, i don't always have the luxury of time as everyone else.......keep trying to heat things up over non-sense, buddy. now to all the other quotes and shit, the point i'm trying to make is that a lot of guys are calling the kettle black and thinking that their hero is above humanity. nothing more, i didn't say anything about DLH, or Gatti, or anyone else, that doesn't do anything to support my case. anyway you look at it, any person under extreme scrutiny can and sometimes will look like a P.O.S, and with that being said i had to point out that floyd is no angel just like the rest of the world. are you guys denying the fact that floyd has been through all of that shit? or are you guys justifying it? because it seems like when you are bringing up what others have done you are trying justify it, i am in no way, shape, or form justifying anything that anyone else has done, i don't care, but when someone throws a stone from a glass house, they better expect it coming back at them. i'll be the first to say that my favorite fighter is a guy that has done some terrible shit, Hopkins, but i don't try and justify what he's done in the past by pointing out other peoples faults. just because i bring up some facts about floyd doesn't mean i'm trying justify others transgressions. keep up the good work fellas, i love it. Thats kinda the point everyone is trying to make. While Floyd is no angel, he catches more shit for minor things than other fighters get for bigger shit. Guys like DLH, Hopkins, Mosley (Hmm, all GB guys) are considered "nicer" guys than Floyd. Why? Because the haters jump on these guys' dicks because they smile for the camera and say all the right things. As for me, I believe that actions speak louder than words.

So I guess the Golden Boy Oscar gets a free pass, huh? No one ever judges him. He's got like 4 kids by three different women and was off playing Too Wong Foo while his wife was pregnant with their second child. At least Floyd spends time with his kids. Oscar cuts a check out and has absolutely NOTHING to do with them nor does he want to. Let's not forget about that underaged rape case in Mexico that Top Rank swept under the rug. Those beeyaches admitted that they SAID Floyd hit them just to get his attention. And in Tyson's case the guy should just rot in hell. He was loaded off cocaine and alcohol and was behind the wheel. He could've easily killed someone which he nearly did or he could've killed himself which unfortunately didn't happen. More harm "than" good. Not "then" good. thanks for the grammar lesson, sorry i type fast and don't reread everything i type, i don't always have the luxury of time as everyone else.......keep trying to heat things up over non-sense, buddy. I thought it was revealed that his ex-girlfriend did all of that because he broke it off with her????? I do recall hearing that no order was in place because she was living with him. Things changed and supposedly, she slapped him with the order. That's what I heard. Like Oscar Delahoya's RAPE charges? Or Gatti's assault charges on an old man? now to all the other quotes and shit, the point i'm trying to make is that a lot of guys are calling the kettle black and thinking that their hero is above humanity. nothing more, i didn't say anything about DLH, or Gatti, or anyone else, that doesn't do anything to support my case. anyway you look at it, any person under extreme scrutiny can and sometimes will look like a P.O.S, and with that being said i had to point out that floyd is no angel just like the rest of the world. are you guys denying the fact that floyd has been through all of that shit? or are you guys justifying it? because it seems like when you are bringing up what others have done you are trying justify it, i am in no way, shape, or form justifying anything that anyone else has done, i don't care, but when someone throws a stone from a glass house, they better expect it coming back at them. i'll be the first to say that my favorite fighter is a guy that has done some terrible shit, Hopkins, but i don't try and justify what he's done in the past by pointing out other peoples faults. just because i bring up some facts about floyd doesn't mean i'm trying justify others transgressions. keep up the good work fellas, i love it.

Is Floyd a fan of AK? http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=149107 notice how theres only 1 reply, and its a floyd hater :rolleyes:

um, yeah, floyd has been in court twice for domestic abuse, both times the girls settled out of court. there was a time when floyd was facing a few years in jail, but the girls dropped the charges in both separate cases and settled for cash. now with that being said, floyd also was being sued for not paying his child support, people think that he has his kids but he only gets them every other two weeks, so he has to pay child support, which the courts had to come in and force him to do, that or serve time, what a dad huh? guy has all that money, " more then god" as mayweather likes to say but can't come correct on time with his kids. now i'm the first to say, i don't trust a broad, but when the courts got to get involved with it because they aren't getting paid (child support), WTF! This clearly shows your ignorance. Floyd was in court for domestic abuse for allegedly "hitting" his ex. This happened while he met up with her to GIVE HER MONEY FOR CHILD SUPPORT. Later, she admitted that she was upset that he left her and had attacked him. He only restrained her from hitting him. She admitted that she made up the story because she was mad. I believe the child support story was because she was asking for more money, not because he wasn't paying it.

Also Floyd has the whole Michael Jackson issue in which he never had a childhood lmfao As far as hating on floyd, dude is an arrogant prick,but i do give floyd some credit for the positive things he does outside of boxing. Most of us may not like mayweather, but as a fighter you have to respect him.

He could've easily killed someone which he nearly did or he could've killed himself which unfortunately didn't happen. the guys who bash him on here are 200% MORE childish than Floyd, at least what he's doing is a show for the camera, at least people in real life can vouch for him on his personal life and say they love him wholeheartedly, you people take every little plural he spits and make thread in the for of "Floyd Mayweather "I Got The Biggest Dick In Boxing", c'mon man give the shit a rest, y'all sound like his ex girlfriends who he sent packing after he hit it between training camps, give it a fucking rest yo he doesn't give a flying fuck about what you immature haters have to say about him, bottomline is he's rich and you're NOT, deal with it.. Edit: and whats even more sad is that the haters I speak of above are the REGULARS here on BoxingScene, y'all downplay the credibility of this site when New Members come in here with no more than 100 posts speaking REAL talk and guys with 3K+ posts that been here for maybe over a year come in acting ridiculous yet dissing the new guys, fuckin pitiful, the board would be better without y'all.. Watch how the haters conveniently ignore this just like any other time when there proven wrong :rolleyes: much respect to the people on here that aren't biased and dont dickride whatever the popular posters say. some people are too scared to speak the truth or too simpleminded to see it

More harm "than" good. Not "then" good. You should have million posts if you're going to go around correcting EVERY spelling and grammar error on here, but then, this is a boxing forum, not English 101, correct?

Its funny how they cant see that its all and **act** for the cameras to sell tickets. they keep saying how hes way too arrogant and disrespectful like for the de la hoya fight but they forget the part in the end where they hugged. they say he disrespects his opponents like Gatti when calling them C-Class fighters but forget when he said after the fight that it was all just to see tickets they blow up every arrogant thing he says in the media but when he does nice things like read to kids, donate to charity or asks Khan for his picture they conveniently ignore it yes hes naturally cocky and childish but a bad person he is not these people are the same people that called Shane Mosley a liar and a cheat for the balco shit and felt stupid after the cotto post-fight interview just stfu already - mayweather is good for the sport and it was his fight with dlh that had started the ball rolling for 2007 as a great boxing year and he will close it with the hatton fight What do you mean asks Khan for his picture?

um, yeah, floyd has been in court twice for domestic abuse, both times the girls settled out of court. there was a time when floyd was facing a few years in jail, but the girls dropped the charges in both separate cases and settled for cash. now with that being said, floyd also was being sued for not paying his child support, people think that he has his kids but he only gets them every other two weeks, so he has to pay child support, which the courts had to come in and force him to do, that or serve time, what a dad huh? guy has all that money, " more then god" as mayweather likes to say but can't come correct on time with his kids. now i'm the first to say, i don't trust a broad, but when the courts got to get involved with it because they aren't getting paid (child support), WTF!

Floyd has the IQ and maturity of a 6 year old, he dosen't think before he says things. The whole Mayweather family is fucked, the only one with a brain in the family is Jeff. No lie, I THINK FLOYD MIGHT HAVE BEEN A CRACK BABY!!! :tapedshut I mean just look at his pops and his uncles, you can't tell me Sr. wasn't huffing glue or something during baby Sinclair's conception! Also Floyd has the whole Michael Jackson issue in which he never had a childhood

Funny you say that coming from someone with a self admitted wife beater in his avatar. Corrales is the one who beat on his wife, not Floyd. Floyd's never been married pal. um, yeah, floyd has been in court twice for domestic abuse, both times the girls settled out of court. there was a time when floyd was facing a few years in jail, but the girls dropped the charges in both separate cases and settled for cash. now with that being said, floyd also was being sued for not paying his child support, people think that he has his kids but he only gets them every other two weeks, so he has to pay child support, which the courts had to come in and force him to do, that or serve time, what a dad huh? guy has all that money, " more then god" as mayweather likes to say but can't come correct on time with his kids. now i'm the first to say, i don't trust a broad, but when the courts got to get involved with it because they aren't getting paid (child support), WTF!

Funny you say that coming from someone with a self admitted wife beater in his avatar. Corrales is the one who beat on his wife, not Floyd. Floyd's never been married pal. It was his babys mama.. wife/girlfriend same shit. and yes he did put hands on her infront of a bunch of peoples infront of a club. anyway, I never said Tyson never beat his wife.. is Tyson a bad person? Yeah, in some aspects, to me I think Tyson is missing a few nuts and bolts in his head and has a mind of a child or something.. One really fucked up individual. The reason I like Tyson is because what he said he ment and if he said he was gonna try and knock you out he ment it.. Unlike Floyd who says it then dissapoints everyone by playing it defensive all night and doing just enough to win. But again, NO ONE EVER SAID FLOYD WAS A BAD PERSON YOU NOOB!

I don't judge Mayweather by what he does to sell tickets in promotion for his fights. I judge him by his arrogant actions and the way he carries himself in public. What if Bill Gates went around throwing his money in people's faces constantly instead of donating so much of it to charity? It's alright to be young, confident, and rich. It's another thing to throw it in an average fan's face every time you're infront of a camera. Couple that with his domestic violence record and you have the reasons I don't like his attitude or personna. However that doesn't discredit me from being able to notice that he's the best fighter of his era either. In ring, I respect his athletic ability and defensive craft. Outside of it I couldn't care what happens to him. Quite simply : Human beings are judged not by personality but by their actions. A Person's actions are most likely to be a great indicator of their character.

Floyd has the IQ and maturity of a 6 year old, he dosen't think before he says things. The whole Mayweather family is fucked, the only one with a brain in the family is Jeff.

floyd isnt a bad person, he's a lost cause. floyd does more harm then good for boxing................
