If he's this cancer to the sport, don't ever watch him fight again, don't ever order a PPV of his, don't ever watch a youtube video of him, change your avi and stop commenting in threads about him, he's a cancer to the sport right? Stop keeping him alive.

"How is Floyd going to do this?" "They have no license!" "They can't start a company!" Mufuckas can't even wait 24 hours to get the dick out they mouth. I just want to know what all the celebrating is about.

But now 2 different companies (the two biggest in boxing) and HBO have told him to basically go **** himself makes me think he is not very long term focues which would make him a terrible promoter. So again, he's never actually promoted, never actually gotten any sponsors, never actually negotiated with Showtime or HBO (Golden Boy did.) That doesn't mean he can't do these things as you say, but it isn't going to happen in time for a Mayweather fight, of which he has an actual obligation for on Showtime.
Look I'm not saying he can't make a promotion company, but I don't think he will. If it's Mayweather promotions they will never get a sponsor, ever. Floyd marketed himself as the bad guy, as "uban" as much as I hate that p.c. **** but it gets people to hate him. I live in Vegas, but most people (filipino's aside lol) think Mayweather is a cool dood. He lives here, but he's actually a really cool guy in public he is likeable and tips like a beast from what I hear. So until I started reading Yahoo comments and casuals at parties or in public... people really think he is a giant piece of ****. It's easy to get a sponsor for Tebow he doesn't burn $100 bills, flaunt his cash and beat his wife... that tends to turn them away. They can do it, but I don't see it happening.
Haymon is the same as any of the big guys in boxing he is there to make money in some way.
As for Floyd he is the star, he is still a big star he doesn't have much time left in the sport which is less than ideal when starting a fresh new firm but he still has 3 fights for sure left, so that is something they can work with and gives them a time cushion.

You think Floyd's gonna stop fighting? Floyd could fight you and it would sell more than any other fighter in the sport. It sucks for the sport but you idiots in here celebrating like "this is the end of Floyd! we finally got him yay!!" when in reality, the muthafucka still wins because he's the biggest star in the sport, and fighters are going to want to fight him.
Yes he doesn't have much time to keep fighting, his numbers are going to keep dropping. The casual fans are getting more sick as time passes with the shit he pulls.
