Floyd Mayweather just tweeted he is paying for all of Smokin Joe's Funeral expenses..

Where is the bragging? Or are you just making that up?

And LOL at saying that HE needs to set up something for all retired boxers. You lil girls are something else.

Why say anything? Why did he need to say it? There needs to be more done for retired or permanently damaged boxers, it is only boxers themselves who will be able to change things, anyway he needs to make significant donations, Ayrton Senna donated $400 million in 1994 to the children of Brazil, 1994! Now that is something worth mentioning. judging by your first post I don't expect you to understand any of this as you are probably 12. A funeral is a very personal thing for the family.

Dont bother talking to him. Conquering thinks everyone is either a ******* or a floyd fan.

He wont give you a solid response, except calling you a girl. Deflecting the issue at hand.

Hate to be cynical but was Mayweather even that close with Joe? Did they know each other well? I understand he shared a ring with Genaro Hernandez but whats his connection with Frazier?

of course it's a publicity stunt; you guys are so naive. still, at least he's putting his money where his mouth is.

Because he's a grown man and can say what he wants? And you right, there needs to be more done for retired boxers, but how you go put that all on him, like you suggested in your last post. And, please spare me with the nonsense.

And while you are at, show me where he was "bragging" about paying for Frazier's funeral (like you said in your last post). The man tweeted ONE TIME and you girls got your little thongs in a bunch.

probably not. But we all know this act had nothing to do with Joe at all in his mind.

Yep. I don't see anything wrong with it.

It's a noble gesture. So what if he announced it. It's good no matter what.

had he just payed for the funeral without letting the public know then all is well. But then the public wouldnt know and he wouldnt get the credit, so that couldnt happen.

I really wanna know though. Maybe he was tight with the family? Did he visit Joe when he was ill?

Cos I dunno how i'd feel if I was in Joe's family and some virtual stranger just called up out of the blue and offered to pay for the funeral expenses.

very good gesture from floyd
