Mayweather's Attitude Stinks

[Ray*]

The journalists would have some sort of identification and the training they filmed would have been at Mayweather's discretion so your point is ridiculous and besides it is a boxing match not the bloody Cold War! From what I can tell you are basically trying to justify Mayweather's obnoxious behaviour by pointing to Tszyu's obnoxious behaviour which is also quite absurd. The fact is Mayweather should not have behaved like this and he should try showing as much class out the ring as he does in it.

Listen mate..Am not into your whole bash this one and all that stuff, I dont see anybody critising tsyzu or his behaviour making the headlines ..It just goes to show that every little thing about Mayweather seems to make a bloody thread, When is all this craziness going to stop.

So what if this isnt a cold war? You dont seem to understand the whole concept..He moved the interview into other place because the Tv company are skysports so whats so bad in that? Am a hatton fan and a boxing fan and a sensible one at that..Am not going to bash mayweather for it..Just like i didnt bash tsyzu for chasing us out of the gym in Manchester.

Its not my or yours fight..You dont know better that Team Mayweather or Team Hatton...as long as the interview was granted then the rest is just ladies handbags.

No, you don't understand, he ****ed people about who were trying to do their job which is unnecessary and unacceptable and the reason the Tszyu escapades isn't being talked about is because it was more than two years ago.

The following is an extract from a report from by a British commentator which can be read in full at this link.

On Monday and Tuesday I worked with London based cameraman Stuart Vickery. A couple of weeks ago he got the call to fly to Vegas and film some training plus a sit down interview for Sky Sports News.

Local reporter Jon Saraceno, who's known Floyd since his amateur days, arranged the meeting.

Stuart set up his lights for the one on one and was ready to go, until Floyd heard his accent. Then the pound-for-pound king branded our man "the enemy" and "disrespectful". He insisted the interview, location and all the lights be moved.

What an absolute **** of man. I hope Hatton breaks his face.

Of course Floyd is a total worthless ****. He is only arrogant and trying to have famous boyfriends like 50 cent and talking about his bitches and bling because he is so insecure. It's pathetic. **** Floyd.

You guys should watch boxers box, and stop putting so much stock into their attitudes and personal lives. You sound like a bunch of women.

NEWS FLASH: 95% of all famous people are jackasses. 95% of them would not sit and have a drink with you if they met you on the street, regardless of how nice you think they look on camera.

Watch famous athletes do whatever it is that got them famous and be happy with that. They are not your friends, they do not need you to check their attitudes.

I don't buy into your comment about 95% of famous people being jackasses but it doesn't matter because nobody is asking to be friends with them all I'm asking for is basic courtesy and approachability when carrying out their media commitments.

Why don't you just stop being a little *****? Why the hell do you care so much about somebody else? Just ****ing drop it.

But the difference will be after the fight, kostya was most humble in defeat and even offered hatton further advice for the future. Im certain mayweather win or loose will just run his mouth, but each to their own.

this thread is ******. wow, mayweather is ****y? thanks for the update brah!

i will say that my cousin met him and said floyd was real cool and appreciative of the support. i think this was right before or after the gatti fight. i saw other people on here who met floyd said the same thing.

take it how you want.

Thats what I think this whole thing boils down to. Look, I'm picking Mayweather based on ring skills. Thats it.
But some how if you do that on this forum, your looked at as a "Mayweatherite" or a nuthugger.
Yeah Floyd comes off as a arrogant, ****y, flashy dude.
But really, when it comes down to it, the people that bring up these things are usually not trying to convey WHY Hatton will win. It's usually a whole bunch of paparazzi type of dudes that hang on Mayweathers every move, think that Mayweather slighted there "favorite" fighter, and make 18 ****ing threads about Mayweathers alleged transgression.
Who gives a ****?
In the end, it really isn't that big of a deal to me who wins this fight.
If Hatton can somehow pull out a win, it's not going to be the end of the world to me. But some of the Mayweather haters on here, I swear, if Hatton wins, it will make their decade. It's ****ing lame.
If Hatton wins, cong**** to him. If Mayweather wins, how many more threads will we see about "Mayweather ducked my uncle back in 87, so he is a *****"? type of ****?
Dec the 9th should be VERY interesting on this board...

...I think he didint want sky sports in his camp knowing how hes being portrayed overseas, sports people, not just boxers, tend to have their preferences on who their interviewed by and how, if they know a certain reporter, or new station has been slanting them in a certain way, some people wont do an interview period.

In all honesty i think this thread is pointless and this happens alot more than you think. Atheletes always have their preference with media, which is why you see the same guys sometimes on the same channels, or flatout refusing to be talked to or asked question by certain media/reporters.

I think youre overreacting and this is a perfect case of pointless nitpicking of a fighter you simply dont like. He didint say he wouldnt do the interview, he didint want it all in his training camp, so stop whining.
