    keep hatin bruvs i'm having a good laugh!!!!
    in fairness to floyd, there were a number of threads made regarding his donations, and many fans, both pac and floyd fans gave him props for it.

    problem is that people as usual naturally tend to focus on those few individuals who post comments that offended them and totally ignore the many who praised floyd.

      Very kind gesture by Floyd and not the first time or last time he will do something like this. Floyd is very respectful of the people that laid the path for him and the sport.

          Floyd is just scrapping for attention.. He is the biggest attention whore ever. If you are going to help people don't need to hear about it to get yourself praised.

          What he did was GREAT but from my experience, people who are genuine don't need to tell the whole world that he/she is helping someone. You just do it...

              This is insulting that some people in this thread are having a Pacquiao-Mayweather argument. F*** off and get a life, there's no place for that crap here. We're trying to reflect and celebrate the life of a much better man than either of them.

                  To be honest, if it was coming from anyone else...I'd believe this. But it's you. And judging from your post history and Floyd bashing, I have to believe that your first post in this thread was some sort of a bash to Floyd. I mean, you can't expect me to believe anything else, right? Coming from you and all. Let's be honest.

                    I have no interest in bashing Floyd, Bashing Pacquaio... getting involved in any of that ****.

                    HOWEVER.

                    As nice of a deed as it may seem. To tell the world yourself that you are doing something charitable. To self promote your own actions in such a way is not the way someone genuine goes about things. It's a funeral and a time of mourning for the family. That kind of promotion is ****ing gross. There is a dignified way for him to go about it and that wasn't it.

                    I'm glad the family don't have to foot the bill. I'm glad Floyd's doing something good. But the way he went about it makes me question his motives for sure.

The boat thing being a example of policy. Not the same thing, not that i'd expect a floyd fan to be able think well enough to understand that.
