This is a rather simple answer. Floyd chose to be the heel to become a bigger star. But if you ever meet the guy like I have done on a few occasions you can tell that he is a sensitive and caring guy. He's stays back to sign every autograph and take every picture with his fans.
Let me give you an example. At the Mayweather - De La Hoya presser at the Waldorf Astoria a few years back...a woman started screaming that "Oscar is gonna knock you out Floyd....he's gonna beat the **** out of you" she get going. What did Floyd do? He got up from his seat at the table walked over to the fan, took her hand and walked her over to De La Hoya and gave her a poster and told Oscar to sign it for her because she is a true fan.
Here's the sensitive side. When I was interviewing him at the press conference to announce the Judah fight, I asked him "What was it about Castillo that gave you so much trouble?" He said "Castillo didn't give me trouble." I said yes he did. He said "no he didn't, not because HBO said he did, that means hat he did." I said well I saw the fight and I had it a draw and if you were truly convinced you won it then why did you have a rematch? Then he we argued a little bit and that was that.
I'm just saying the guy obviously cares about what people say about him. He knows that when he wasn't a heel he was drawing flies in Fresno. His style is great for viewing for boxing fans but it might not be entertaining for the masses all the time but as the bag guy people get drawn to the drama. Some love it and some want his @ss handed to him...he's must see TV.
But the guy trains hard and puts his heart in to the sport and occasionally that comes out after he wins fights....he breaks down.
A lot you guys don't understand that these people are human. Not because you like Floyd that means you must hate Manny and vice versa. I love them both but I think Floyd is the best fighter I have ever seen and should they meet, I think Floyd would knock him out. I just think it's a bad style macth up. Does this mean I hate Pacman? No....I have picked Pac Man to beat everyone except for Oscar. I thought that he was going up too far and Pacman shocked me that night. I think he beats everybody other than Floyd from 147 down. I even thought he won the two Marquez fights.
Anyways I need these two guys to fight selfishly because it is the most important fight in boxing since De La Hoya - Trinidad
This was a great response! A lot of people forget that at the end of the day, these boxers are real people and there's more than what you see. At the same time, if your going to play the roll of an azzhole you shouldn't be upset when people treat you like one.
You want me to analyze the mind of Floyd Mayweather?
I'll pass.
really, thats rocket science to you?.....
" pac is a soutpaw..my daddy dont want me fighting southpaws...pac fighting guys i refused to fight and beating them pretty easily tells me that i should avoid pac at all cost...but i have to make it not so obvious so i think i should try to smear pac's reputation by calling him a steroid user so that i could gain the public's sympathy...or if they still try to push the fight, im gonna demand soething and keep chaniing it until they get tired of trying to make the fight"...- floyd jr....does'nt need to say it out loud but his actions speak for itself!

All I got to say is this is the hurting business. Stop looking for heroes and role models, little kids. Do you guys really believe you'll get along with any of these egotistical, self-centered, boastful athletes? I doubt it. I give a flying fck if a fighter is a pedophile, as long as he's skillful and entertaining, I'll be a fan.
