Comments Thread For: Mayweather Responds To Exhibition Criticism: 'Currency Over Legacy'

[Roadblock]

You think associating himself with childish YouTubers is what a 46 year old ATG wants to be doing? You think he’s on “cloud nine” hanging with these clowns?

This is man who used to put on absolute clinics against some of the best fighters of his generation, now he’s dancing round the ring like a circus performer making a mockery of himself. I’m not a Floyd hater, he’s the best fighter I’ve ever seen live. Unfortunately he’s a junkie for the limelight, he’s doing this to get his fix. Financial motivation is nonexistent, he’s certainly not doing it to challenge himself it’s obviously because he craves the attention IMO.

He is happy and you fail to see it, you are placing your ideals onto somebody else when you really have no place to do that, Im sure that you do some things others would think are foolish.

The older you get the more your eyes will open to how people are, to judge is an internalized view its not coming from the universe.

As long as you can keep it real with yourself.

I disagree I think he does these exhibitions because he needs the money. Embarrassing yes but he is willing to skin and grin to get to the bag.

I’d be amazed if he needs the money. I don’t buy into these Floyd is broke rumours.

His actions suggest otherwise. You really think he wants to be associated with these YouTubers? You think that gives Floyd Mayweather fulfilment? Please…

You’re blinded by your fanboyism.

I can read and comprehend though.

Typical Floyd Boy. When that truth stings you go into name calling mode.

Tell your boy to take some of that money and buy a library. Maybe the all I know is boxing excuse won't be so much of an excuse anymore

Lots of great men cant read while there are millions of idiots that can read like a poet.

You need to grow up he is not my boy, hating on the pettiest of things reflects your misery, not his.

What actions are those, he looks a very happy man to me, frustrated at times but very happy overall.

To associate with people that allow him to make loads of money is business, again you judge YouTubers when they are winning in life and hurting no one, Floyds private life is who he wants to hang with and those are two different crowds that you have a hard time dividing, I think his life is what gives Floyd fulfilment he is an extremely successful person by any standards, you seem to want to isolate parts you don't agree with and make all kinds of judgements, what have you done to be so high that you can look down on him, in all honesty, its you that is blinded.

But you already got the legacy Floyd. Why use wrong phrases?

What legacy? Cherrypicking opponents past their primes and ducked his biggest rival for half a decade and when he couldnt run anymore, he got caught flushing peds during the biggest fight of his life? Lol

[MCFM]

I can't imagine why anyone would be worried about Floyd's finances... worry about your own, that man will never be broke, I mean never, ever, ever.

Except hes broke and IRS is allover his ass, he couldnt even cash in his pacmay check.. lol

Seeing how Al Haymon enjoys non-disclosures for adverse VADA findings or no VADA for some PBC fights - such as fight postponements would him look bad to Fox Sports - his non public image, Vegas bidness (********), PBC roster earnings, weird or inflated PPV news…

Haymon doesn’t trust anybody and he too is a mafioso just playing the game like everyone else, but just doing it his way… wasting a half billion hedge fund..

it’s no surprise he masterminded the marketing and publicity for Floyd. I wouldn’t be surprised he’s had tax problems for a long time and not understand his ratio for buying and owing back when filing, advised to not cash a check until… that’s basically how Arum tried to help PAC’s situation, scheming, trying to help PAC understand USA taxes and taxes he’d owe in the Phillipines. So it’s understandable if PAC was advised to run for office or govt positions to stir things down with taxes. Same with Floyd, these exhibitions are perfect for him to pay off debts for who knows what the hell he doing with his investments. He obviously pays a firm or several a fee to manage his investments, and in this world there’s loss everyday, that’s why everyone hustles when you’re in that top bracket.

so yeah, I think a lot of his “Smart investments” are just publicity stunts for his image / brand. They are investments but just bragging rights for simple stuff that any other wouldn’t pay to make headlines.

Floyd Mayweather haters are entitled to their weak and un-informed opinions. I mean for the most part they are the other half of the whole, that has supported his fortune, but not his fame. The haters that really sound ****** are the idiots that use the word cherry picker. When a person uses that word "cherry picker" it only lets people in boxing know how much of an un-informed hater & novice you really are. Pick another word.

Any person that uses the word cherry picker about Floyd Mayweather is a LIAR and a boxing novice. A champion can't cherry pick in boxing, because of "MANDATORY".The "mandatory challenger" to any champion is the highest ranked fighter available in any said division. Sanctioning bodies cannot force 2 champions in the same weight class to fight because they're champions under 2 different sanctioning bodies. They can fight each other for the others title, but they can't be forced to fight.
