    When Floyd asked did he see his house. He most likely was like "naw man, must be nice huh?"
    Because it was an interview.

    You have the interview process all messed up. The reporters go running to the boxers/athletes, not the other way around. He was asked a question, and he answered.

    I don't know what he said, nor do you, but there's nothing wrong his stance.

      Hops couldve sat Floyd down and kicked with him on some man to man ****.
      Both floyd & hopkins have taken verbal jabs at eachother for a little while now, if I'm not mistaken even before the Mosley-Floyd post-marquez fight interview incident.

        Ehh, whatever.
        LOL its not that I agree or disagree with what B-Hop said. If you see my first post in this thread you will see that I said agree with some of what B-Hop said. I just jumped in the debate for something to do nothing more.

        Different people see things different ways. If I know someone in passing like you said we can speak and say "whats up" but neither of us needs to be asking the other about our families cause we don't know each other like that. Just my opinion and how I go in my life. Now if we know each other and each others families of course I would want to know everything is good with them. That is only right.

          No, he did not say those things to Floyd's face when he had a chance to say those things to his face. Thinking about it in your head and saying it to a person's face is two different things.

          Floyd has shooters in his entourage and everyone in his entourage is strapped.

            You think B-Hop's never been around firearms? The man spent time in prison for Christ sakes, I promise you he'd have no issue "saying something to Floyds face.". This isn't high school.

But there have been plenty of very respectable people that offered advice to floyd, bernard knows that.
              I am sorry but I disagree with the bold. They was trying to tell PBF do as they did which is not advice really. PBF is not them so trying to tell someone to follow your path when they not you is not sound advice IMO.

                Why didn't he say those things to his face instead of saying things in the media behind his back?

                  how can you disagree? They were giving him advice, since they both lived through it and had the experience.

                    The other bit is Benard is froma different era,publicity for Mayweather is great because that's how he makes his money.His brash style isnt just ignorance as Benard says,it has made Floyd money.Right now Floyd's the best paid boxer in the world so his system works.He has been involved in a few projects out there so he's doing well.

                    There is some jealousy from Benard too and I know people will be eager to say Benard has a stake in GBP.How big is that stake because Mosley isnt much.I remember when GBP was started and Barrerra was involved,all the GBP guys went for a fight as spectators and a commentator did mention Floyd was supposed to be in but then some politics went on and so the issue goes back to those days
                    This is so ******. The whole point he makes is being smart with money and that Floyd throwing his money about just shows how insecure. B Hop doesnt have to throw his money around because he aint got **** to prove to anybody.

                    And as for your first paragraph, What difference does it make who made more money ''in boxing". Imagine the money B-Hop has just sat in the bank because he is smart with his money and makes very smart investments, where as Floyd has the IRS on his ass

                      Probably because Floyd is the kind of dude Hops can't stand. Respects him as a man and a fighter but not what he stands for.
