Comments Thread For: Mayweather: My Personality Was Part of a Business Plan

[The Big Dunn]

In Michagan he could have sold out the big arena, he did it once. But Arum likes that west coast money and he couldn't go mainstream without Delahoya. He already was very outspoken and **** talker before he left Arum, but it was just suttle. Like i have said, Floyd worried people will forget about him when he retires. Gbp is the banner he fights under, and no wonder now he is trying to clean up his image, didn't Delahoya have a clean cut image when he fought?

he isn't a GBP fighter. Yeah ODH had a clean cut image but I think foyd played off that.

how can you talk about business and call yourself "money" when you ducked the biggest money fight of this century? canelo have yet to make his first ppv fight after this floyd fight. al haymon tried to negotiate with arum, hbo tried, nelson mandela tried, singaporeans tried, joe jackson tried, 50 cent tried, floyd didn't cooperate...

stop talking about business, doe. just admit health and self preservation are more important. can't blame you for that.

floyd has been in the biggest money fight of the century.

[WholeSoul75]

he's talking about the business plan to inrease his earnings and make his name bigger. the ustream rant, the tax problems, the dv with josie, etc. these things of course were not part of any plan. he did some ****** stuff, ****ed up and paid the price.

He was able to put those things behind him and continue to build himself.

word! now if the rest of the nation can forgive everyone who has f'd up and paid the price...

it's the skills man, floyd knows he's the best in the sport so in order for him to get paid like the best, he probably said to himself ill talk all sorts of trash so people will pay to see me get my head knocked off, but floyd knows boxing like bill gates knows computers, and everybody tunes in fight after fight saying to themselves maybe this is the fight he gets beat, and haters are always dissaapointed when he wins. If Mayweather didn't have the skills none of his trash talking would matter anyway. People are mad that he's ****y and nobody can beat him. Mayweather is a boxing scientist in that ring. Canelo might be able to pull it off but i doubt it. Mayweather will take way most of Canelo's weapons and Canelo wil have a punchers chance thats it.

He fights Delahoya, beats him, becomes ppv star. Delahoya involved in every fights he's had since.

Mayweather has always been Mayweather. The crying part was just bad but it is what it is.

So him going Chris Brown on Josie Harris was a "act"?

Thats the dumbest thing I've heard in a while and I click on dudes with red k threads

read the ny times article on his business relationship with GBP.

I thinkyou are saying floyd as always arrogant than yes I'm sure he was. But I think its clear he changed after he left TR.

we can agree to disagree.

any person that generates huge sums of money in the US gets a break involving court related situations.

[WholeSoul75]

not really speaking on court breaks but athletes who personality presents racism. I thought that was huge. It's really good for him to move on but man, just curious on how he gets a pass on that. (a paula deenish) racist rant by a u.s. athlete and he represents the american dream? and personality was part of the plan? kinda confusing..
