    Lets not forget a movie about Pac, commercials, multiple talk shows with multiple returns, white house visit, british royalty visit, you name it. But, again, this is not about who is the better person, Pac has not been a saint, he has done less negative things in the spotlight..... its the public persona which is where it stands when it comes to publicity.

        people are making this seem like a battle of good vs evil, lol.

        the hate floyd gets on social media is pretty crazy, though. The comments section everytime Showtime's Facebook uploads a new Mayweather picture is so negative. It's almost like if Mayweather has personally offended these people or done something bad to them.

        I take it with a grain of salt though. If they saw him on the street they'd probably ask for an autograph and picture and if they got it post it on Facebook "Floyd is so nice, new favorite boxer! TBE!" lol

            That's what annoys me, the good vs evil part. Both have made mistakes, both have done wrong. It's okay to like one guy over the other, but it should not be a good vs evil war. It's boxing, nothing more, nothing less. If someone wants to see the closest thing to evil, see Stevenson who psychologically and physically brutalized women for years.

              arum speaking the truth here. only a fraction of americans are rooting for fraud and most of them are on his payroll.

              how can you root for an athlete that is considered a bad influence not only to americans in particular but to all human beings.

                What pisses me off the most is when people start regurgitating their "runner" comments. It really downplays Floyd's achievements making it seem like what he does is easy, "all he does is run!"

                  let's not pretend Floyd doesn't have any fans. In the comments section of Facebook I see Floyd getting support from a wide set of people, blacks, whites, latinos, arabs.

                    Exactly. Floyd has nothing blame but himself though. He's a guy who prides himself in flaunting what he has instead of what he gave back to his community.
