Just how dumb is Floyd Mayweather Jr?

[Galahad]

I really don't know how dumb Floyd Mayweather is, but the Pacman would surely look much dumber if he caved in to these ****** ridiculous tests just to please FM and his ****** ridiculous supporters.

"Make them beg", would be Pac's motto. He is set for life.

No Money on the otherhand has lots of debts to pay.

He is a bad businessman no doubt. Passing up on 40 mil payday is just dumb. Or maybe he just really fears Pac.

Pacquiao doesn't even need to add another million dollars to his bank account to survive in his country for the rest of his life. That's why Mayweather needs it more than the Pac does. Not to mention sharing half of it to the IRS.

Floyd really passed up $40 million dollar pay day to not fight Pacquaio in 2010 only to make $220 million dollars 5 years later .. that is so dumb of Floyd.

Even dumber to bump this ancient thread. Just let it go.

at least you kept it 100. Floyd passed up on the fight in 2010.

Floyd isn't very bright at all. He talks like a ****** ****y kid about 16. I can't remember a single interesting thing he ever said, just pre-scripted cliches and bulljive. Sugar Ray Leonard once memorably said long ago that Floyd Sr and Jr were the same level. Implying Floyd Jr was protected by much better management. He came around at the right time when there were no other marketable black fighters and so the estab installed him as the Face of Boxing. They made sure he never lost. Arum tried to set up Floyd to lose to Margarito in 2005-2006 but Floyd sensed the set up and knew what a big strong rough and tumble beast prime Margarito was and escaped Top Rank and fled to Goossen/Haymon. Ducking the beatdown loss to Margarito to fight 36 yr old Baldomir for the same $8m was probably the smartest decision he ever made. But he could have made $8m also for Margarito. Ducking the $8m was smart in hindsight but it was all possible with Haymon HBO Showtime Vegas and WBC protection.

True, and it's because he seems completely incapable of introspection.

The truth is Floyd had to be forced into the Pac fight by the head of CBS Showtime because the previous Floyd fights were doing lousy numbers. He actually intended to duck Pac forever. He got lucky Pac was in decline after all the tough physical REAL fights and he had a hurt shoulder which Floyd rigged Nev State Commission to forbid Pac from using a legal painkiller. Floyd caught using an illegal IV the day before the fight was covered up.

No one was even talking about it though, you've gone out of your way to reignite the argument. You surely have better things to do.
