    His fan-base is hard to identify and the affinity towards him comes in a mix baggage, so sponsors don't really want to take a risk and have a huge backlash of protests and boycotts to deal with.

    Well, at least, this is my take on it.

        What is Floyd to sell shoes people wouldn't wear in there normall day to day life or boxing gloves? Air Mayweathers would never fly off the shelf a certain boxer could tell you that.

                I don't know what it is, it could be Al Haymon advising him not to. Michael Vick got sponsored by big companies right out of his jail term for dog abuse. So it definitely isn't about Floyd's image and it certainly isn't racism. Also, Floyd wasn't even getting sponsored before his jail stint, so that's out of the question. He had that AT&T thing going, IDK what happened with that.

                  You wouldn't expect a boxing boot to fly off the shelves because, but he could still promote Training gear and running shoes since almost 99% of the time a boxer is probably doing road work or something in the gym anyways.

                    Nike Basketball shoes sell; maybe a Floyd version of the Air Max 95 would work; Tiger Woods biggest seller with Nike is golf clubs or balls.
