Still a big fan, but he doesn't make it easy.
      I find his PUBLIC threat Roger to be quite classless. That's a private family matter. Floyd could've had a sit down with his uncle and expressed how he felt about it, without publically threatening to fire his uncle. Its almost as if he gets off on this power trip that he has over certain people. What was also disrespectfull to his fans, and the sport of boxing as a whole, was the fact that he came out and said something about boxing taking a backseat to wrestling right now. He said " My focus is on WWE. Boxing is in my rearview mirror"

            I completely agree with this.

            I do wonder how much of anything involving any Mayweather is real and how much is not.

              not necessarily... pbf/DLH did like 2.5 Million buys

              cotto mosley did like 400k


              the casual fan bought de lahoya pbf because of the build up and the advertising... it was a HUGE fight.... to even the casual fan..

              the diehard fans knew mosley/cotto would be a great fight... but the casual fan didnt... which is why they didnt sell 15% of what dlh/pbf sold


              casual fans do fork over 50 bucks... and a lot more 50 bucks than there are die hard fans

                Love the guy and think he is one of the best ever to lace up a pair of boxing gloves. But he needs to fight the best....AND BIG SHOW from WWE ain't one of them.

                  I am a devout Floyd fan, at this point the last bond that keeps me in his corner is that like his name "Money" implies, he has always won me money at the sportsbook. If he were to cause pain and unecessary distress to my bank account it will proabably be over for us. The wrestling, Oscar rematch aren't that troubling but calling out your uncle unnerves me a bit. He's testing my loyalties but as long as he puts money in my pockets I'll probably defend him.
