[therealpugilist]

Dude calls a spade a spade...never heard of his channel

am i the only one tired of the word "hate" being used so lightly?, floyd, like many people is disliked, not hated.

Mayweather created this monster. He used it to sell tickets. The only way people will stop hating Mayweather is if he's humbled inside the ring with a loss or outside the ring by going broke. People like to rewrite history but Ali was hated too until he was humbled with a loss and post fight parkisons. His image took an overhaul in the 80's. Tyson too.

great post....ali was one of the most hated athletes ever and yes they will continue to hate floyd because He'll have to fight until his mid 40s until he takes a humbling loss...hope he stays retired and enjoys sitting back and building his brand and new champions

Tyson wasn't hated by a large number of people until his second run when he seemed legitimately crazy. He was beloved by most people in his prime in the 80'/early 90's.

1) The fact that Mayweather isn't the only woman beater doesn't make it OK, this video's spin on that does not change this bottom line fact. If you want to call a spade a spade, then we have to call Mayweather a woman beater.

2) Sure the general style of the fight would be the same, and probably also the outcome imo, but Pacquiao has declined since the idea of Mayweather/Pacquiao was first brought up and the author of this video chooses to overlook the significance of that. But I guess calling a spade a spade means viewing things in a light that favors your preconceived beliefs.

3) Rousey was doing the smart thing and talking about the biggest box office fighter, I think it is far from "madness" and "******ity" to do that. I do agree that the fight itself was ****** and Mayweather would have clocked Rousey in one round easy, but the marketing strategy was not ******.

4) It's not Mayweather's fault that his post first retirement style was not easy on the eyes sure, but if we're calling a spade a spade I suggest we acknowledge that several of his later fights were boring. (I definitely wouldn't say the same about 130-135lb Floyd tho)

Agreed, Tyson was massively popular.

Angelo Dundee mentioned in his biography written in the 1980's That
he took a young very shy Cassius Clay to watch a wrestling match in Miami. The Main Star wrestler was Gorgeous George, he was the biggest name in wrestling at the time. His entire persona was built around a Hate base, he would deliberately antagonize the fans, and they would pay good money hoping to see him get beat.

According to Angelo....... Cassius picked up on that and went all out to develop a hate base by being loud and brash.

In the U.k.British Fighters Chris Eubank, and Prince Naseem Hamed did the same thing in purposefully trying to develop a hate base.

Finally after years of struggling to be a ticket seller, Pretty Boy Floyd Mayweather, transformed into Money Mayweather and focused on getting a hate base.

So you reap what you sow.

Here in the U.K when Tyson came to fight Julius Francis he got Mobbed were ever he went, despite the media efforts to villify him, we had radio shows and even TV news debates and discussions from the BBC on wards about Tyson, It was even discussed in British parliament as to why Tyson had developed a cult following and was still popular despite everything......That was one hell of a Circus never seen anything like it Hundreds of reporters and paparrazi camped outside the historic Grosvenor hotel following Tyson where ever he went. The guy was a lead story in all the media News outlets print, radio, TV: For Weeks.

Floyd despite his delusions of grandeur does not even come close.
