    One way or the other I don't care aboud Floyd's money. It's his problem and he's ****** if he owes a lot and ends up broke like some boxers have in the past.

    It's sad because some boxers were born poor and died poor because they never cared to learn how to handle their money. Many box in the first place to escape poverty. Damn shame!
    Im not envious of no one and Im definitely not laughing at him
    because as many know I most of the time support Floyd as a boxer
    but if he is allowing himself to be subject to becoming broke I have
    no pity or care because it would be obvious that he doesnt either
    right? in the same breath, this situation could be over blown.

      If he makes all the money he did in the oscar and Hatton fight and he somehow lost it all through whatever reasons then you cannot feel sorry for him, I know the recession took a lot of people's money/investment away but his story is ridiculous.

        dont care because this **** is ridiculous to have all that
        money and then owe the IRS? I wish I had that much
        money so whatever debt he is in then he deserves what
        he gets if he has all them people around him and cant
        manage it.
        I feel ya. Its no different than average people who are going bankrupt over 10, 20, 30K plus from credit cards etc.... To a poor person that's a hell of a lot of money. Or is it?

        When you deal with 50 to 100 million plus, that 6 million is like the average persons 20 to 30K. Its a lot but nothing to get worked up over. Its all on how you look at it

        Depending on the class that people are labeled as like upper, middle or lower.. will determine how they look at money.

        You would almost believe that people that bytch non stop about his money are lower class because even though 6 million is a shyt load of money, if your someone that can make 2 to 3 times that in one night 1 to 2 times a year or more. That's really not that much to be all worked up over or at least I wouldn't.

        and besides who the hell cares? He makes more money than me. His kids look healthy. They eat and probably have medical, dental etc. His moms is taken care of. His dad has money. Whats the problem? He's obviously going to pay or has paid taxes..

        He's no different than NORMAL people in America in DEBT. Its just his debt is a shyt ton more because he makes a SHYT ton...

            Put it this way if Mayweather/Pac get's made, the build-up will be on a whole new level... Accusations and what not will be flying from both camps.

Arum hates floyd so much he'll do whatever he can to ****k 146 pounder anytime he can.only fight out thur is pac if he wins, but arum will not budge too far on his demands, especially when he sees how Many more ppvs thur will be in nov than later tonite,
              He will have to deal with Arum because besides Mosley the boxers that can really generate Money for PBF now, will be under Top Rank Promotions (Pacquiao, Cotto and Margarito if he returns) There's also Berto and clottey but those fights will not be Mega Fights.

              If Mayweather loses, I don't know how he could fight on. The undefeated record is everything to him. Without it, I'm not sure he's the same fighter. Or maybe it helps that he loses and the pressure is off. We shall see after Saturday.
              Beleive me, he will fight if his loses.

              In the past his only concerns were the undefeated record and the money.
              Now his major concern is Money only so he can pay IRS and keep his lifestlye that is currently at risk. After showing off on TV throwing money at cameras and bragging about his 10mil house and all that's in it and loudly saying that his **** is paid for, he will avoid at all coast and risk, going thru the embarrasement of having that taken away from him.

              Remember that if he makes 15mil for this fight minus 5mil to IRS of back tax minus aprox. 1/3 to the current year tax, minus almost 1mil to JMM for penalty of overweight and what ever is left from that (lets say aprox 6-7mil) he will have to pay his staff (trainer, cutman etc...).

              Basically he will be making only aprox. 5-6 millions for this fight and that will only last 1 year under PBF's lifestyle, property maintenance, vehicle maintenance and security.

              Beleive me, win or lose, he will have to fight again, not because he want his title of P4P king, But to keep his title of "MONEY" Mayweather.

              At this point the 2nd title ("MONEY"), is more important than the 1st title (P4P)for PBF.

                    Honestly, and I don't want to hear any dumb answers. How do you become that rich and get in debt like that. Talk about being really bad with money. Like seriously, why do you need a Maybach and all this crazy **** to show stuff off. I just couldn't see being a multi-millionare and being in debt.

                      You know what? since you put it like that, it does make
                      sense that way. People do owe all the time no matter
                      how big or small it is. Floyd got the cash to pay it so
                      not like he cant come up with the cash, he just sitting
                      on his hands right now.
