    The things that annoy me are what Evander/Gatti/Oscar does.
    Difference of opinion i guess. I know both are fake to a degree, but i prefer the one that would influence my son, who at early age already knows most of the boxers, in a more positive way.

      gatti's rap sheet is lengthier than mayweather's or zab's. But he made PBF out to be some bad guy.


      Evander Holyfield was out doingthat "Holy warrior" thing. And meanwhile he had multiple children out of wedlock WHILE married. And he is a cheater.

      Oscar positions himself as this family man. Always talking about Gabriel. How about the other three kids with the other three women? He presented an image on 24/7 that was just a wee bit different than the guy in the hotel room with the Russian hookers.

      Oscar was incensed that PBF was behaving poorly during the pressers. But he stood there smiling when his business partner BHop did it, and then smacked Winky in the face.

      On the Dios scale, hypopcrisy is worse than boasting. But I respect that everybody has a different scale.

        How about the huge smile on Oscar's face as the final bell sounded on May 5th that was a dead giveaway that Oscar and Floyd set EVERYTHING up in the pre-fight?

        Seriously, does anyone believe that Floyd really took Oscar's gym bag?

        If so, and if they detested each other so much, why did they chum it up immediately after the fight ended? That didn't look like mutual respect, that looked like best friends.

        Seems hypocritical for Oscar to be the good guy and talk major dimes on Floyd if he set all that **** up, you think?

          Mayweather would hurt his opponents more and even KO them if only he had the guts and selflessness of a warrior. The thing is, he doesn't.

            Obivously you don't know that Floyd's hands are ****ed up, and he's been facing bigger men his whole career.

              So selflessness is a good thing in prize fighting?

              Well Arturo, I know I landed 45 power shots on you in the first round, but I want things to be fair, so you can have 45 free punches on me.

              Listen, being selfish in the ring is a way to save your life and keep a good record.

              Listen, giving up your advantages in the ring (like footwork and defense) is ****ing ******, ESPECIALLY if you do it for the fans.

              How'd giving up all of his advantages work out for Vernon Forrest against Ricardo Mayorga? Riddle me this genius.

                so you do think boasting is a bad thing. finnaly you said one negative thing about floyd. if you throw more of those around, then the positive things you say about him will be taken more seriously. at least by me.

                  I dont hate mayweather at all.. but would like him more if he didnt pick and choose his oppononts.. he has to step up to guys who are a true threat to him.. williams,mosley, etc.. even cintron and margarito could give problems...

                    Corrales, Castillo, and Chavez weren't threats? And Margarito is nowhere near a threat. Only Cotto and Mosley.

                      Let me be clear: Floyd Mayweather is arrogant and often childish.

                      Let me be clear about something else: I am a grown man and not a *****. I don't care if a guy throws money at a camera. It does not affect me.

                      I only (well, mainly) care about boxing ability.
