When infact he represents why the negative stereoytypes for blacks exist in the first place.
He is an arrogant, **** talker who isnt willing to back up his claims and he expects the black community to stay behind him? What the hell does that make them?

Preach ma brotha preach!

I believe all those Bossip articles ARE FAKE. If you go to the website you can tell they are unprofessional. No way did they have a chance to interview Mayweather twice.

Floyd is a hero in that he took nothing and made something out of it. Floyd has acheived a level of independence such that he can say whatever he wants and people will still be willing to work with him.

Most black boxers couldn't get away with the things he says and only say those things behind closed doors.

That said, his less than diplomatic mannerisms does not endear him with many, even other blacks, and the level of hate for him imho is somewhat understandable.
