Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Explains Altercation With Rapper T.I.

[-PBP-]

Apparently T.I. got lumped up by one of the TMT boxers. Probably the best performance of their career thus far.

Body guard or boxer? If so that's great. Hopefully it was J'Leon Love. He needs an impressive KO badly.

[ßringer]

No extra testing means T.I. takes the L.

The commission didn't do their job.

[IMDAZED]

They dont,, they are just posers, and like i said in my post, i was an idiot back then to think it was cool.. I was fortunate to have a great role model in my life.. some are not that fortunate and fall prey

See how you have your own story? That's what happens when you don't generalize. Try it sometime.

How many drive by shootings were there in the 50 and 60s compared to the 90s and today...
Im not trying to place the blame solely on rap, but they are not helping matters at all

This is such a ****** comment that I want you to step back and really think this time before you respond. Let me repeat, those areas were rife with crime and poor before hip-hop existed. Now...let it go.

And i do know what im talking about,, how many hoods are in Zambunda or wherever you claim to be from.... I lived my whole live in chicago and peoria, and in my 20s donated thousands of hours to under priveldeged kids and gave them boxing lessons, drove them to competitions, bought their epuipment, feed them on road trips, so dont act like i dont know what im talking about... Plus in my younger days i dealt drugs from 15-25 years of age, have been involved shootings twice, and spent the majority of my time as the only white guy "below the hill" which is the ******... My best friend is a black guy that i vacation with every year...
Im not just some idiot white dude spouting off at the mouth, without ever actually being part of it...

Without ever being a part of what? Tell me.

I never said hip hop is the cause of it... They are doing nothing to help it though.... Name a rapper that raps about good stuff, like saving money, doing good in school, etc...
Obviously hip hop didnt start it, but its the most influential force in urban communities and it does nothing to bring people up, all it does is glorify the negatives..

Poverty existed before hip-hop and will exist after it because hip-hop has nothing to do with it.

[FeFist]

My whole point is that kids look up to people with the status of floyd and TI..
To argue that is totally idiotic

I'm not arguing against that. What I'm saying is that with or without Floyd and TI they would be degenerates.

Ultimately, people have their values, and who they look up to depends on those values.

[#1Assassin]

lol.. T.I. feeling some type of way.

and did that fool say he threw his daughter a 14th birthday party in the strip club or did misinterpret some ****?

[Cinci Champ]

Talking in one sentence about how he not sleep with another man's wife, then how he not gonna jeopardize another relationship, he's gonna apologize for calling her a *****, she cool with him, throwing a big party for his 14 year old, his mom throwing a big party for him, and Floyd is out partying at a strip club in between. All under God's eye he reminds us. Is this Floyd fool messed up or what? All his kids out of wedlock, says he wants more kids, had Miss Jackson prego out of wedlock, until she got an ********, not gonna mess with a married woman or even a separated or divorced woman, BUT he'll hit the strip clubs and rain thousands of dollars enabling several of those strippers, married, separated, or divorced, painful lifestyle. Floyd is on the same path Tupac was on.

give it up your trying way to hard

[Sugar Q]

The comparison is straight up accurate. It's beyond beating up women or having kids idiot. It's about being a high profile African American with too much money, unable to handle the fame, playing the gangster role in life, in fighting amongst their own, can't stay out of trouble or questioning with the law, later find things go sideways. Floyd in his last all access points out on the Vegas strip where he was standing when Tupac got plunked. These guys are all thugs; sorry that's tough to hear.

No it's about the ignorance your perpetrating, that's the exact reason why we as people can't move forward "IGNORANCE!!!! What do you know about living Floyd's or TI's life? It's very clear that you don't know ****!!! Why does a very successful young AA man have too much money? I guess it's cool for all the rich white kids to go out and kill for no reason? Young AA men can't have heavy testosterone flow, a bad day, a bad moment, etc but others can? You have just showed us the biggest problem you have with Floyd who was basically innocent in this situation.

Thank you

You fighting a lost cause with him

or people are just fans mainly of his boxing ability i dont see why everything has to be over blown into role model bs

1. I was never trying to stereotype anything,, if you dont think guys like floyd and TI arent idolized by youth then you are wrong...

2. Sure there was crime before hip hop, but what has hip hop done to improve the situation,, the ones with power and influence do nothing,,
There are some great people that actually do care, but to the media and society the only ones that get recognition are the ones that highlight the negatives and not the positives

3. Without being part??? I was talking about white idiots that are racist that have never been in urban areas, never known under-privilegded youth, never been in an urban minority environment...
Donald sterling is a prime example,, he is a disgrace to the white race and should be in hell right now.... rush limbaugh is another example,, guys that have never been anywhere near an urban environment making claims... I have been born in raised in an urban minority environment so i feel like i have a better insight than those idiots

4. yes crime happened before hip hop,, but hip hop is one of the most infleuntial forces in society especially with urban youth, and hip hop has not tried to make things better, instead of focusing on the positives, they glorify the negatives....
