  • Floyd shows the reason why he isn't a cross over star.

    Once upon a time Floyd said that the reason he wasn't as popular as DLH was because he was black. He also gave that same reason of why he isn't the most popular sports star in America. Which is kind of idiotic when you think about it because the biggest sports star in America every single year Are black....

    Floyd is a product of his upbringing, imagine being raised by Floyd Sr. and his uncle Roger? I mean there's a reason this dude is so mentally ***ed up and is so emotionally unstable.

    When I watched the 24/7 between him and DLH, I noticed something that very few probably noticed. While Mayweather was walking around with 50K in cash in his pocket and a watch and chain that were worth 1 million dollars, DLH was walking around in jeans and a polo shirt with a leather wrist band watch.

    It was amazing to me how the kid from the REAL hood (DLH) was walking around more humble than the supposedly hood kid in Mayweather who in reality was raised most of his life in Michigan suburbs....

    This latest rant about Pacquaio is the classic example of why America has never embraced him and why he's not a cross over success like DLH, Tiger Woods, Shaq etc. He shows no class and no respect towards others while simultaneously screaming about how nobody respects him.

    To those of you that say he's "Keeping it real" all you are doing is perpetuating the ignorant stereotype that young black kids like Mayweather give off to the rest of the world and then wonder why nobody takes them seriously. The sad thing is, millions of young kids see this and emulate it and think that's being "real" or what a real tough guy should act like. When in actuality it takes more of a man to come from where Pacquaio comes from, smile all the time and take care of his own people and the people around him the way he does.

    Like I have said before, Floyd is an amazing fighter, his skills and work ethic cannot be denied but him as a person leaves a lot to be desired. He's classless like his father and uncle before him. It was JCC who shut his uncles mouth and hopefully Pac can shut the huge mouth of Mayweather.

    Floyd just doesn't have a way with words and he is not very clever or classy.

    He has the good looks and the million dollar smiles but once he opens his mouth it is over with for him in terms of getting over with everyone.


    I would say he did cross over though just not in a fan friendly way, Floyd will always be known as the bad guy, but take a good look at him because you may never see a bad guy like him again.

    I have watched Floyd since the Olympics and it is very suprising he has gotten so huge, I honestly can't think of another fighter who did it like Floyd unless you are talking later on Tyson.

        But he's not huge, not in the cross over sense. He makes a lot of money in boxing but he doesn't get the sponsorships you would think a guy like him would get and there's a reason for that.

        If Sugar ray Leonard was in his prime in todays day and age, he would be bigger than even DLH was because of who he was.

        It's one thing to play the "bad guy" but that will only carry you so far. When American embraces someone, it's always someone wearing a white hat, believe that.

          He just has no charisma or charm.

            I strongly disagree with the title. You can't possibly be serious man.

              Dude floyd was down with ODh and SRl and top rank long time ago. He did the pretty bioy clean cut thing and it didn't make him jack. he got the At&T, dancing with stars gigs well after he went with the "money" persona. Dude may not have ODH like commercials, but he is getting paid in the ring big time.

                  How explain? If you think making million is becoming a cross over star, that's not what I'm talking about. He should be on the cover of Wheaties, he should be like a Shaq, Tiger Woods etc in terms of sponsorship but he's not because of ****** things like this.

                  Who's going to touch him after he goes on some bigoted rant about Asians? Imagine if it was Pacquaio who said something like, " I going to make that black monkey cook me some fried chicken and collard greens"....

                  HIS CAREER WOULD BE OVER.
