Just recently I was watching a few interviews on Youtube of Floyd and suffice to say he came across a massive pain in the backside.
He was bragging about his money, being disrespectful to other fighters and generally being quite ****y.
Part of me was laughing and thinking that hey this is all part of the promotion for a fight....he has a role to play as the 'bad guy' etc etc.
However I'm starting to think that perhaps that in fact he is actually like that in real life...quite sad to see someone let a few quid go to their head like that.
The reason I felt compelled to make this thread was moments earlier I stumbled across another video suggestion on youtube of Mike Tyson fighting a large, lumbering white guy called Sammy Scaff or Snaff and he destroyed his nose and ended the fight in the first round with a knockout...the moment the ref called the fight off Tyson ran across the ring to check on his opponent and looked genuinally concerned.
That precise moment I remembered the Ortiz incident and the lack of class shown by Floyd...:frown:
Somewhere I'm hoping that when he retires he will suddenly come out and say it was all an act and he was just behaving like that to promote the fight but the fear remains that he indeed actually IS a scumbag.
