    Floyd is so transperant, its kinda sad..

    you can tell is that all he really wants is the admiration from a loving crowd and when he gets the opposite, he turns vulgar and childish. we saw that in this 24/7 and also in the one with DLH when he was doing a press con and he was just talking normally and the crowd started chanting DLH's name and his attitude and demeanor changed. he became a 5 year old kid. He didnt get that from his Dad and he isnt getting it from the public. if you cant get the love you want, then you remind them how much more money you have than them and how better your lifestyle is.

    i mean, all the people close to mayweather say the same ****, "people dont know the REAL mayweather, the loving, humble dude blah blah blah" but the only persona the public will become acquainted with is whichever Floyd presents.

        of course, but who has the fuel for the fire? floyd does. i just hope dude finds what he's lookin for because he seems hurt about SOMETHING.

          I dont think hes transparent, misguided maybe.
          Deep down I think hes actully a good guy, he just had a tough life and now its good and hes showing it off.

            if i had so many ****ing haters insulting me or criticizing my legacy constantly no matter where my status is, i would react like floyd does too. he is so hated for his outside antics, that it bleeds over into his performances in the ring, where it really counts at the end of the day. the man gets called p4p king and the best fighter in the sport, yet, many people find ways to take any substance away from his credentials as much as possible. it's sad, to say the least. floyd is human just like anybody else is, he just haves a sheer condifidence in his abilities, and there's nothing wrong with this. floyd lives for himself and his family which matters at the end of the day anyway, so be be it with all the hate, but with as much hate he recieves, his name is only growing more and more by each day.

              I understand where your coming from I just dont trust the media at all as they can make mountains out molehills very easy or paint you anyway they like to what ever degree they like , off course something is going on with Floyd but to what extent only the people close to him behind the scenes really know ,, man he would be under extreme public pressure 24/7 it would take a lot to keep yourself together , most people at 30 if they had what he has they would go ****en ape**** .

                first of all you have to asky WHY he gets so much hate. the usual reply to that question is, "everyone is just jealous". really? there are plenty of boxers who lead a similar life and where is the hate they get? there HAS to be some substance to the hate. whether it is due to his media persona or his career, hate does not spawn for no reason at all. floyd is at the point of his career where he should be beloved but he's not. he's tried to counter that by appearing on dancing with the stars but it really had little affect. his name may be growing more and more each day but at the end of the day, the people dont cheer on the bad guy through out history.

                  People hate him because he's so arrogant and childish to the public and makes fights boring.

                    think before you hate on floyd, floyd is a ****ing business man above everything. You say he is boring. Well at this weight he doesnt have the power he did in lower divisions, at higher weights he earns more money, and he is still able to make an insane amount of money because he is entertaining to people who understand and appreciate boxing. You say he acts childish and arrogant, again, ****ing think, he plays the role of the villain to rouse people's emotions, they want to see him get ****ing knocked out, and you know what? they pay him 50$ to see people try(and fail). Floyd has a great relationship with his kids, he gives back to his people, and he is rich as **** so he can provide them with every advantage. What's more he does all this in a sport thats leaves many permantly injured, mentally or physically, not so for floyd, he is smarter than that. In short, you haters dont know him personally so taking shots at his character is rediculous, and if you understood and appreciated true boxing, you wouldnt think he was boring in the least. Floyd has everything, so it is only natural to be a little jealous, its just sad so many insecure people have to hate.
