He was jealous of all the huge UK fan support Ricky got when they faced each other.
He wanted that as his own!
Went so far as trying to get them to sing "there's only one Mayweather" in the post fight press conference...but was serious about it!
Ever since he's been selling them dreams saying how much he love the UK and how it's always been a dream of his to go over there and fight in front of the UK fans...
He need to stop lying to them people.
He know damn well he ain't going over there.
Stop it Floyd.
are you serious? do you have a link for that?
Take Usain Bolt as an example
Athletes competing in the UK are liable for a 50% tax rate on their appearance fee as well as a proportion of their total worldwide earnings - which for Bolt, who earns millions from endorsements, could be hugely costly.

also the 2011 Champions League final

no, Its 50% tax rate for people earning £150.000 or more
but here is the kicker, if doesn't get that exemption, not only will he pay tax on any earnings from that fight, he will also have to pay tax on any earnings from bonuses and endorsements (i.e. sponsorship deals) (even if they were earned overseas)

forget fans
floyd would never, never fight in UK, it all BS talk
Floyd already has problem paying his tax in US, do you really see him pay 50% tax in all his earings
UK has some crazy tax laws, which is why usain bolt didn't come to compete in here
and why Uefa had to ask UK government for tax exemption for players appearing in the 2011 Champions League final

lol footballer andre arshavin only found that out after he signed for arsenal, he was like 'where all my money go'?
FMJ could probably get the exemption, but let's be real, there's no way he's coming to fight in the UK even for double money.
