People can say what they want about Floyd...especially him being "illiterate." You know what I find funny? An illiterate man pretty much taught a lot of boxing fans the business side of the sport. Think about it- he's repeated the SAME things over the years and he's proved it over and over again (PEDs, how fighters are paid, A side vs B side, marketing, other fighters' contracts (lol), how promoters do business, etc).
Again, an illiterate man gave soooo many boxing fans facts and talking points about the sport. Insane. He caught so much heat for his views on the sport but here he is today!
Too many times we've seen some of our favorite fighters leave the sport with nothing and end up in bad health. I could only hope for prosperity for all of these guys who give us a reason to chop it up and discuss the sport!Comment

Casual. Complete casual....
Floyd has had sponsorships with Hublot, Burger King, Fanduel, grant gloves, ******currency EthereumMax, clothing brand Fashionova, and CBD company Smilz.
Look at his shorts from the Pacquiao and Logan Paul fights.
Stop posting on a boxing forum, you don’t box nor do you know anything about the sport.
He charges 1 million for endorsements hence why it’s not the regular for him. ****in casual.Comment

I know his family, the Money persona is an act, Floyd is actually rather cheap in real life. He leases ***elry, got a lot of his cars for free, and rents his jet to other people when he's not using it so it pays for itself.Comment

That's not called being cheap it's called being smart. Nobody cares if you claim to know his "family" anyways provide some pictures at a family gathering if that's the case until then it's just gossip. ***elry depreciates and so do cars so good on him for leasing and getting them for promotion wouldn't you? As far as the jet same thing why wouldn't you put it use while it's still capable? Just as cars those things get old and lose value might as well put it to use and make money off it, it's the same idea for real estate buying and renting houses no different.

He pretty much did that on his own, creating that persona, making people hate and buy his fights to see him lose, fleecing the public with his sham fights and fake record. Can't hate his hustle, if people were dumb enough to make him rich, then he deserves every penny.Comment

Wow what a revelation. You added to the validity of your story by saying you know the family. You must be pretty impressed with what you know
