    This is what I was talking about. Do something good with that money and not just throw it up in the air to people who probably don't even need it or deserve it.
    As far as anyone doing what he has done in the ring or surpassing it? I doubt it. Floyd got real lucky with some of those tomato cans that were holding belts at the time he was moving up. He was a lucky opportunist. If some day these divisions have some tomato cans like Gatti and Baldomir, those trying to accomplish what Mayweather has, will be lucky and have some easy fights too.
    I knew some way some how somebody, was some way going to find a way to hate. He tried to disguise it, but I'm not dumb and know hate when I see it.

      Also i was here at the ODLH vs PBF press conference, just look at my av.....
      There was a little boy about 5 years old that couldnt see Floyd because about 75-100 people were all bigger than he was. He was yelling "show me love Floyd" over and over. Then Floyd saw him and pull him to VIP where Floyd and I were. He pulled out 100$ and gave it to the little boy. He told the boys dad to take him shopping and to buy the kid whatever he wants courtesy of Floyd. He told the dad "dont you spend it on you or bills, you go buy your son whatever he wants, and tell him thats my gift to him." Signed his glove, gave him a hug, picked him up, and took a picture with the boy. Oscar wouldn't even let you touch him. He had about 10 security guards around him. Floyd had no security and went out of VIP over the security gate and mingled hugged and took pictures with ALL of his fans. HBO was gettin mad at him because he had already missed his flight to Dallas and had to catch another flight. When they were yelling at him, he kept saying "I love my fans, Im not leaving until I meet all of them" Mean while Oscar had bailed out an hour earlier, and didnt mingle with ANY fans. Floyd really is a nice guy, you just have to meet him. He even said that he puts on a show for the cameras, and that wasnt the real him. "This is the real me" (referring to him and how he was to his fans).

        Sounds like an awfully good guy.

        But which one is the fake act?

          Good lad. That's why I like the guy. He is a very genuine guy outside the ring.

            he said he plays the bad guy because there cant be 2 good guys. He was saying that the ****y Floyd is his wrestling act. I also got to go to his hotel room. But by the time we got to the hotel, it was already late and they said Floyd was packing his stuff to go to the next city. So we followed them to the conference site and got to go behind the gate and chill with them.

              I believe him to be a good guy at heart.

              But he's a ****ing douchebag nevertheless. Why?

              Because he acts. What's so wrong with his real personality that he has to act differently?
              Say it's for the money, say it's because it sells better.. It doesn't matter.

              To me, money does not matter. Integrity and character is way more valuable than being able to have 10 Ferrari's.

              I know most people thinks differently, but that mentality does not float my boat.

              He acts like a douche, he talks like a douche, but he still want to promote that he's a nice guy and all the good things he does.
              What kind of douche would do that?

                  A lame attempt at buying respect. He wants respect, then he better ****ing organize the whole event and sit at the door collecting ticket money.

                  50 bucks says that one of his conditions is that every fighter is forced to wear either a ****** Rich records shirt, or a Mayweather Promotions shirt.

                      I don't want to sound like i'm hating but.. A lot of boxers give tons of money back to the communities.. Wlad being one of the biggest, and they still manage not to act like *******s on a regular basis.(imo)
