        It's fcking pathetic coming from
        Floyd "It's not about legacy" and "I'm stealing money" Mayweather

        U.S.A doesn't support him because personality wise... he's an *******.

        Then he pulls up the race card further angering the masses.

            Floyd is dumb.
            He asked for fans support then he goes on to say " Fans can't help you inside the ring" ," There's nothing cool about taking punishment.....".bla bla

            If he really wants support,maybe he should start thinking about giving the fans what they pay to see. Stop ducking fighters and stop running for 12 round against BUMS like Baldomir. Then he'll get support not only from Americans but also from boxing fans all over the world.

              Please, very non-few Pinoys are actually fans of Pacman. They like the guy and support him. But for Pinoy boxing fans Pacman is all they got

                    he has an exciting style. pac always had a built in fanbase, but when everyone was able to see how exciting he was, he was able to build an even bigger and better base.

                    Very few ring tacticians have ever been largely popular. Pernell Whitaker was never a draw outside of ******ia and was hated in nearly every boxing circle, he was called a runner, coward, etc. I remember this very vividly. Whitaker ALWAYS fought the best, but he was arrogant and talked alot of trash and does one thing floyd doesnt do in the ring, which is clown around and taunt, something floyd rarely does.

                    People say they would "love floyd jr if he was just humble" or "love him if he fought the best"

                    but when he was this way...people largely didint care outside of the hardcore, again, whitaker ducked nobody and had great fights, but he was never universally loved.

                    however a fan friendly style like JC Chavez was embraced by lots of people.

                    you see whereim getting?

                      You are right, Pac has more American fans than Floyd.
