A.) I'm a very prideful man, and I wouldn't swallow my pride for a hundred or so bucks. and B.) I have a good job that allows me to have my own extra spending money, not as much as Mayweather for sure but enough to where I don't worry about money.

    Oh yeah and C.) Even though I admire and respect Floyd as a fighter, I ****ing hate him personally and would never give him the satisfaction of doing tricks for his loose change.

    I can respect that, personally I would have hopped my ass into the water, nothing is better than free money. Did you read my post though my freind, if you think about it it isn't really his fault they endangered themselves by bumping the stage. I can agree it probably would have been better to do it somewhere else but they were performing on top of water, can't change that can you?

      When you got the money, you toss it.

      When you aint got the money, you dive for the ****.

      Get rich or die drowing... That's the name of the game.

        I don't think all of the fault lies with Mayweather. I think it was a bad idea to put the stage around an area of water first off, even if Floyd had not thrown money something still could've happened due to zealous fans. I understand what Mayweather's intentions were, and I'm not going to say anything crazy like he knew people could get hurt or anything, I've been to live concerts, I've played live concerts, you do **** on stage for performance level without thinking of what might happen.

        And I did read your prior post and I respect your opinion. I think it was half of the event's organizers fault for setting it up so something bad could've happened, and half Mayweather's fault for using the opportunity to yet again flaunt his wealth.

          If all them people would've drowned with money in their hands, that would've been a sad day for Floyd.

          He's just gotta be a little more conscious next time.

          JMHO.

              That's all I ask of him, honestly. I can understand he likes to toss money around for his fans, and that's cool in it's own way even though I see it as ****y. But when you add a live crowd to the situation, live television, and free money, the outcome could be really disasterous. I mean hell, think about it. In today's society you've got people who will line up around the block for a chance to be on live television, and eat a raw cow's ******* for 50 bucks.

              There's no telling how a crowd of thousands will react on live television when they have free money floating around in the air. Someone could've gotten trampled to death, if not electrocuted.

                I still dont think its a big deal personally. He was giving money away, and I'll say it again, having a stage around water like that is beyond ******. Maybe Floyd should have known better, but there's also managers and supervisors who are supposed to be aware of these things.

                  I can respect that, but when the managers and supervisors who are running things are too ****** to realize a dangerous situation, it's up to the performer(s) to be responsible and defuse it before something bad happens. Big **** up, on both parties involved IMO.

                    How ***in weak do you have to be to ride on the coattails of 50 cent?

                    I'll say it straight out. Their a bunch of wanna be gangsters that would ball like bitches if real gangsters showed up. I don't give a **** how many times he has been shot, and i dont give a **** how much money floyd has- Their both a couple of ***in degenerate punks.

                    In the real world their a couple of expendable ****heads that are supported by misguided kids whos parents were too busy being selfish peices of **** to raise em right! You wonder why America's going to ****? It's a generation that puts more worth in self serving ***s that will do anything for a buck- instead of asswhoopins and education. When the Chinese take our ***in Homes because we spent the rent money on idiots like these, it will be well deserved!


                    Meanwhile keep wasting your life in a wanna be Gangster ***in Fantasy where the toughest thing you do is pop in the CD and live your life by an uneducated ***s sad excuse for lyrics!

                    It's really sad!


                    What does it say about our society that we reward immature ***s with untold riches while the people that actually support our society like Teachers, Social Workers, Nurses, and many others that actually contribute to make the world better for all of us are treated like ****?

                    You telling me a guy like 50 cent or Mayweather deserves anything more than a good beatin and mandatory education?

                      That's the big paradox of life.

                      Entertainers, pro athletes, and software makers (Bill Gates), and stock players (Warren Buffet) make millions more than the folks who are more in contact with and serve the community.

                      Seems unfair, but that's what society accepts and demands, no more, no less.

                      Just like ditch diggers work physically much harder than an architect, but who makes more money?

                      Go figure...
