His goatee is f'ucking terrible though.

I know, right? Hence my nickname for him: pvssy mouth! It looks like a trimmed pvssy the ****stars had back in the 90's! .....and yeah, I know that's a little mean and that some Butt-Hurt Mayweather fanboys might not like the nickname but DILLIGAF....

Manny didnt beat on his wife, but damn he commits adultery and the world gives him a pass

Because cheating on your wife isn't against the law and anything like beating your wife?

Well tell your boy to stop hitting women and he wouldn't be associated with somebody like ray rice. Maybe if he didn't make the rules like he's the commissioner on Maidana gloves, boxing could be looked at as more of a sport like the NBA and NFL. Fact is, the UFC is more of a sport than boxing is at this point. Boxing is a business. The others are sports. Even the PAC situation, it's like Lebron saying he's not gonna play against kobe in the finals cuz he doesn't like the lakers owner. Wtf is that???? That's boxing for ya.......

Mayweather wants to use the villain role to sell more pay per view, but his team complains when people talk negatively about him. It can't work both ways. If you are arrogant, people will not like you. He also makes very ignorant comments. He swears that he is being hated on, but that is just the truth. He says all these negative comments about other people, especially Pacquiao who he refuses to fight, and that is not hate?? Boxing is not as big as the NFL and NBA because people at the top of the sport will not take the fights that fans want to see because they want to protect their records. Let me not say they, I am referring to one man, Floyd. He won't take the fight against Manny Pacquiao that will revive boxing. We also need more exciting heavyweights besides the Klitchko's. Another reason boxing is not as popular as it should be is the golden boy/top rank war that stops many fights from being made

Floyd won't be recognized for his accomplishments until he's out of the sport. No one expects a guy (or a team) to be on top this long. Some of us can remember "Jordan Rules," and Jordan's image right before he retired then unretired (accusations of ********). People love to see a guy fall off, just like Ali, Tyson, Magic, Jordan, and Tiger. I just want to see him leave on his time, and not go out like Joe Louis. There's a lot of haters out there, but they are ignorant. For those who have real love for boxing, read the following:

Great article! Awesome read.

I think Elerbe is finally worried Floyd played the heel to far. Seems like the Ray Rice thing turned into the kind of negative press that isn't good for business.

Sorry Ellerbe, we aren't your yesmen.
