Did PBF Turn People Off?

Turns me off, thats for sure.

On a side note: Does the delay in Mayweather/Marquez mean a delay in the 24/7?

Everything he does is a turn off. I bet when he is making love to his woman, she wishes she was somewhere else. Floyd is so ARROGANT, I bet he calls out his own name during sex.

What did Merchant say about Floyd the night of the Gatti fight or was it the Baldomir fight? It was at the begining of the entrance. It was something about if Floyd were a pea****... Anyone remember the line?

yeah, not so smart to talk about money in a bad economy. floyd should do a big charity event during 24/7 to get some sympathy

It doesnt bother me...its just a show...the economy is bad i know to an extent everyone is hurting more for money...even the rich...so thats why it doesnt bother me...he just is being floyd...

i dont particularly like floyd as a person (i appreciate him way more for what he does in the ring rather than out of it) but i never let his antics really phaze me too much.

Could be considered a turn off, but he said those days are behind him now... so I don't think we have seen him do it in Boxing in the recession because he retired before the recession.

I think the nice guy angle kinda works.

My mom called me once to talk about Pac. She's like, oh he's that nice guy that goes to church and takes care of his mother.

And the funny thing is, she's seen all the Mayweather fights, but was impressed with Pac.

The bad guy routine works with a certain demographic at a certain time. but not as much nowadays.

I really think though, it's all show biz and none of these guys is a saint or a sinner but like everyone else, somewhere in between.

People are over it. Floyd ****s on about money and how great he is. He is and it worked with ALI and few others, but someone like ALI was just so clever and you couldn't help but love his antics.

I wouldn't mind if FLOYD was witty or a bit out there, but he can't handle criticism and can never offer a great comment in return.
