It's safe to assume T.I wasnt invited which is where the hostilites come from... Otherwise he'd have no issue speaking with him. Some guy basically stalked Floyd and went to meet him and demand an audience over his own insecurities. Chek, you're a man and no way would you let some guy just bust in on you like that with hostility. He could have called, text, etc.
And Lebanon, life and death? Where are these fights taking place? The Colosseum? Lol. Street fights arent life and death fight...very rarely does that happen.
Bottom line is, any trained fighter (MMA or boxing) has a MASSIVE advantage no matter what. They usually stop the fight before it starts... If there's no rules..you think a regular person is going to even SEE the first punch thrown by Floyd, Pac, Jon Jones, etc? Without gloves? It's the same thing with boxers vs mma. No mma fighter would be dumb enough to take down and grapple in a crowded place full of dude's friends. Get kicked in the head, hit im the back of the head/elbowed in the neck when trying to pull em down, etc. Mma fighters and boxers have that advantage because of training and what they can do on the feet. Grappling is really only practical in a one on one situation. Kick boxing, thai boxing, boxing, etc are the most practical because they keep you on the feet in position to throw more and/or create distance (or run).
Anyway wtf..
T.I should know better... Floyd giving him the good old "Dont do this to yourself, T.I... I fight for a living vs others who do the same.." Jealousy makes idiots out of men but he's lucky he wasnt stepping to one of the many crazies in boxing. Very few fighters are going to back down in that same situation... A Mike Alvarado or Rios or Zab, etc would have indiscriminately knocked him out.
