Probably because Max set up Shane to interrupt the interview, lets Shane and Bernard babble on about a fight, and then tells Floyd to "focus"? How is it possible to focus when the interviewer is bringing other people into the interview just to do call-outs? I am not a Floyd fan by any stretch, but in THIS case it was Kellerman who needed to "focus", and not just use the interview to plug a GBP fighter.....
PBF cursed out by fans, owned by Mosley and Kellerman! (Video)

Ironic how when Hatton called out Floyd, mister boat buyer was all over it.
Little Juan Marquez calls out PBF and mister boat buyer is all over but then suddenly, some one with a great chin and the man who beat the living day lights out of Margarito whom Floyd was terrified of, calls out Floyd on stage live in front of millions of boxing fans and Floyd pees all over himself.
That is not the heart of a champion. That was the act of a coward who hand picks his opponents to this very day. Fighting midgets and making them move up to welter weight and not fighting any welter weights yourself, is an act of cowardice.
Like the people yelling at the end of the video. Phuk you Floyd!

WOW! I can't believe you said this? But you are right. Hatton called him out and Juan called him out. Now Shane calls him out and he suddenly acts as if he is not his own promoter.

I think that's fair about the endorsements and hell he might of made more money down the line but that's just assuming. One thing we do know the bad guy sells in America. Oscar sold a ton of buys but it wasn't till he faced a character like Mayweather was he able to shatter records. With that said maybe Floyd does his thing, keeps quiet, and then down the line gets big fights but I doubt it. Do you think a non **** talking May does almost a million buys versus Hatton because I don't. A large % of people buy his ppvs just to see the guy lose, not see his skills in the ring. Just my opinion.
With all that said I think it eats at Floyd deep down. You can tell how upset he gets when people question him or during some of his pressers. I think if he had to do it all over again he would trade in a few million bucks to have more fans and a better legacy with boxing heads. Money is great but when you're dead, money doesn't mean ****. I think Floyd is starting to realize this.
Naturally its assuming of course.
I don't remember Michael Jordan having to be an ******* to get endorsements though, and even at his age now,
hes still slangin product.
Tiger Woods doesn't have to be a **** and he still makes a **** load of money.
I agree that the **** talking has worked for a few fights, but at some point, people are going to and have realized that, thats all there is to it, **** talking.
"I'm going to massacre him", "I'm going to knock him out", etc.
False advertising once the show begins and he fails to impress the very customers he brought in with his act.
Theres a reason why he went from 2.4 with DLH to less than a mil with Hatton. Many people didn't like being fooled by his talk and no action, "I'll never pay to see that guy fight again".
and the Hatton fight proved it.
Really, he could have been on of this nations greatest athletes with his exceptional boxing talents,
but hes incredibly insecure and does nothing to justify his claims of greatness.
I think Floyd is probably a very nice person when not surrounded by cameras or writers, but he feels he has to act a certain way to gain acceptance from a certain crowd, the Hiphop crowd. Look at how they despise Kobe Bryant because hes not from the hood, how they despise him because he speaks english the way its supposed to be spoken. Its plain to see Floyd is not at all a tough guy, but a poser who wants to be accepted by the tough guys.
In the long run, thats really not his crowd and it will end up biting him in the ass as it already has. Stolen ***els from his pad, parking lot shooting, bragging about **** he doesn't really own, etc etc.
Its sad that such a talent is missing the thing that matters most,
a brain and some balls to prove his talent is worth it.Comment

It was Floyd who motioned for Shane to come over.
Shane is always in the ring after a GBP fight, so trying to say it was a setup is false.Comment
