Ray Lewis killed a man yet is regarded as one of the greatest NFL players of all time, and also one of the most loved.
Ali skipped out on his Nam draft and is regarded as one of boxing's beloved.
Tyson ****d and beat women, yet you'd be hard pressed to find a man who doesnt like him.
It true. When you are on top, people look for every reason to tear you down. It's only when you're dead broke and have nothing do people want anything to do with you.

Ellerbee makes fair and true points. Unfortunately we are in a different time in sports. The Floyd's, LeBron's, kobe's and Tiger's deal with more BS than their predecessors.
But ellerbee really can't complain. when Floyd was on the come up-his act was cool because everyone dreams at one point or another of having it all. Once Floyd got it all, the act never stopped. He became exactly the character he portrayed on 24/7. He went from taking shots at the top to being the guy at the top who people take shots at. Floyd is foolish to think he'd get to the top and not be treated the same way he treated those at the top when he was on the come up.
Floyd did it his way and he is paying the price for doing so.
