      He had a deal pending with Jordan brand when he fought Judah that in his words he rejected as he thought he was going to retire. Don't know if that's true.

      He's had a deal with Reebok.

      Imo the reason he doesn't have one is because in his mind he probably feels he is being low balled by the brands that have made offers of sponsorship. I could just imagine it now. Reebok makes a $10m offer to renew sponsorship rights. Floyd sees that list someone posted of Lebron getting $39m and asks Reebok for $50m.

          He CHOOSES to have no sponsors,

          All the dumb comments by Pac fanboys in here and hilariously dumb

          Floyd doesn't give his name to cooperation's who will demand he attend every event under the sun to promote their brand

          Look at Amir Khan, he is sponsored up to his ass, he spends at least half the year promoting something or another all over the world, Virgil Hunter pointed this out, so you wonder why he doesn't get a chance to train? He has obligations to these sponsors

          These companies don't hand you big money for no reason, you have to work for it, having a sponsor is having work

          Floyd has made TMT clothing and cut out the middle man and uses his name to push out his brand, its genius and unheard of by a top sports star

          You see Kanye West always crying about cooperation's yet signing deals with Nike and here is Floyd showing you, that don't have to pimp ur name out to every cooperation under the sun, you can build up from the bottom.

          These big cooperation's are dying to have Floyds brand, he's the highest paid athlete, with no sponsorship, that's amazing in itself. He's making so much money he is in the position to turn them down.

            Simple because being able to speak your mind and do what you want and still be one of the highest paid athletes if not the highest >>>>>>>> being told how to conduct yourself and what you can and cannot say because you are paid by sponsors. But I think Grant might sponsor him possibly

              Companies in the western world are becoming more and more PC.

              Why ?

              Because women control 80% of household spending. So someone like Floyd isn't going to sell to the soccer moms out there.

              Pac is different, he lives in a poor country where women have less say and is by far the biggest sport star there.

              There's plenty of clean cut nfl, nba guys to throw the money at and you can't wear boxing shoes.

                Utter rubbish some of the worst soccer players with horrible reputations have some huge deals. Guys who are constantly in trouble on and off the pitch. Horrible rappers who brag about drugs and murder have deals.

                People learn to forgive and forget easily, Floyd however wont just attach his name to anything, he has to want to believe in the product. Also he'd probably want royalties, which big cooperation's aren't willing to give. They will use ur name and give you money upfront , but any profit they make from the product, you will not receive and you will have no overall say so or ownership over the product

                Floyd is too rich to be pimped out like that, he has an option to say no, if he were desperate though he would have signed the dotted line with various cooperation's and made a fast buck, but why when he can make large amounts of money without selling his name off to the biggest bidder and having to work another job as a sponsors stooge

                  Floyd did have sponsorship deals in the past. Then he had his issues. So he doesn't have any now for the same reason Mike Tyson didn't.

                    Oh please, Tiger Woods lost $150 mil in sponsorship just for shagging a few strippers, Terry lost 10mil over his sex scandals, ronaldhino lost his coke deal for sipping a Pepsi.

                    boxers are already, a no go zone because they smash other guys in the head for a living, very few have crossed over to the main stream popular culture and are liked by the moms out there.

                    Floyd is a convicted wife beater and all round ****. He is sponsors knightmare, you never know what this guy will say next.

                    He's not a rapper, that's a different market, he's a sportsman and there are simply better, safer options in sport.

                    And no one says no to money, it's what separates us from the animals.

                      Floyd is a g. He wears what he wants to wear, he behaves how he wants to behave. Nobody tells him what he can and can't do.


                      I feel sorry for the fighters who get seriously hurt in a fight and they are rushing to put their t shirt and hat on just for sponsorship
