Just listened to Floyd's interview with Jim Rome on Rome's radio show. For once I thought Floyd might have a humble, sensible outing during an interview, because he made some good points and didn't go out of his way to bash on Hatton. When asked about Hatton's record he said, "He's won all his fights, yea, and I take nothing away from him, but records ain't nothin' but a number. You have to look at who he's beat in his 43 wins. Who has he beat that was at the top of their game?"
Ok, fair point to make. Then when Rome asked him, "You know Hatton sometimes walks around at 30 pounds over his fighting weight, what do you think about that? Do you think its good to do that?" Floyd threw it all out the window and made the dipshit comment of, "Me personally, I don't think thats good, thats not what a role model does,..." At this point I rolled my eyes and sighed. First of all, walking around over fight-weight has nothing to do with being a role model. Second, if anyone in sports has no right to talk about role models, its Floyd Mayweather Jr. Ethnic slurs, gay jokes, disrespect to fans, and personal overhype aren't trademarks of a role model either.
you love Floyd so much you let your emotions get the best of you if you hear someone talk about his BS. I wold expect that from Floyd's Mom or girlfreind. :luvbed:
Wonderful rebuttal, your intellectual aptitude is evident in your posts, boy.
C'MONMANGGGGGGGGGGGG
emotionaly swayed? you are the only one being emotionaly swayed by calling him a little girl cuz he rolled his eyes at your hero, budd.
Incorrect again. He just said he reacted emotionally (ie. rolling his eyes and sighing and going into a rant about Floyd's antics) I pointed this out and let him know that getting worked up about what he says is how a sensative little girl would act. I don't care if he rolls his eyes, I care that he is getting emotionally swayed over something so trivial as a few words from anyone. Now you are going on about an incorrect assesment which is making you look asinine. Nice job budd, go back to the drawing board and try this one again.
all of America who saw that interview im pretty sure rolled there eyes..
the fact the you are calling him a girl little makes me think you are sensitive
1)American MEN don't roll their eyes
2)If you allow yourself to be emotionally swayed by the particular comment Floyd made I would think you were a sensative little girl
3)Your argument was peurile and backed by nothing that made any sense considering me calling someone else a little girl doesn't equal in anyway me being sensative, budd.
I'll agree with that, with respect. IF that is what Floyd was talking about and Hatton's conditioning is sub-par, then as a boxing role model he isn't up-to-snuff.
Obviously it has to do with other boxers. Why would being overweight between bouts have anything to do with regular America.
"I rolled my eyes and sighed(?)" The fact that you hung on every word Mayweather said makes me think you are sensative as hell or a little girl. No offence but that's what I got from the post.
Ok what he said about weight gaining has so much to do with the outcome of this fight I totally forgot that. Yes Floyd saying one thing about Hatton being a fat turd means he is going to get his block knocked off come the 8th. I swear some of you guys act like women when it comes to Floyd and his antics.

I think he meant role model for up and comer boxers and he is right gaining an d losing weight and gaining weight again is not good for u health wise if your boxer or not.
Fair enough, but thats drawing straws floyd has said he isnt even a fan of boxing. Plus if thats true Roberto Duran is the world Role Model for fighters ever.
I agree with cottodawg. I think you other guys are overreacting. I honestly think when Rome asked that question, Floyd was thinking that Rome was talking about Hatton eating & drinking alot in between fights. Floyd has always said that its disrespectful to the sport when guys do that or smoke like Mayorga. I dont think he was trying to diss him personaly but just to say that you should show more to the young boxers coming up and not mistreat your body in-between fights
Hattons gotten into Mayweathers head.........WTF does gaining 30 pounds have to do with being a role model? HA HA HA......

While I understand your attraction and affinity for little girl-related things, no, thats not the case. As a boxing fan and a Floyd-hater (self proclaimed) I was listening to see if he would turn his hand this close to fight date or if he would go on a tirade about how great he was with someone who is notorious for shooting guys down who get on a high-horse (Jim Rome). Instead he just made himself sound like an idiot.
