    Is floyd mayweather jr the smartest man in boxing?



    Just found this vid and it made me realize that floyd sounding dumb in interviews is just an act cuz when it comes to avoiding risky fights he always finds an excuse and gets away with it somehow.

      He sounds dumb in his interviews because he never graduated highschool, and the guy who raised him has an IQ below room temperature.

      Its really amazing that he is as competent as he is.. considering what he camefrom.

      -hes disciplined and takes good care of his body
      -Doesnt have any drug or drinking problems like most superstar athletes do
      - He successfully escaped from a bad contract with Bob Arum and tripled his networth

      Hes smart... in a way. But he needs to get away from Senior and Roger.

        No doubt he's smarter than the Pacman the fact that he's (Floyd) getting 50/50 split in the purse even thought he is not as impressive and doesn't do better in the box office. Manny should emulate his style and learn how to dictate terms and conditions. Take it or leave it.

          For what he believes in, he's smart. He wanted to make a lot of money doing what he does. He believes taking no or the least punishment, having superior skills, and making the most money no matter who the opponent is. After beating Gatti, I think that's when he started fighting for checks. I believe he does have a love for the sport. The way he goes about it is not how other people would like it to be. Everything has to make business/money sense for him.
