    Yeah, but you have talked **** about MMA fighters in general and MMA as a sport.

    "I think the guys who couldn't make it in Boxing made a whole different sport so they can compete"

    "It takes true skills to be in the sport of Boxing, MMA is for beer drinkers"

    Paraphrasing, but that's basically what he said.

      I liked what he said about the media asking him or anyone questions after getting up on the wrong side of the bed. I've always felt that to be something that non-famous people have a hard time trying to rationalize or understand. Seems most non-famous people think famous people should be "on" all day every day.

      Interesting to hear Floyd saying he's going to get into the MMA business now. Idk how well that goes doe. The UFC is the king of MMA. Bellator is #2. And there are about 8 or so notable promotions that are high level minor league-like feeder promotions to the UFC & Bellator to high caliber, but lesser competitors to the UFC & Bellator out there to compete with. You'd need a nice bankroll & solid knowledge to dip your toe into MMA nowadays otherwise its gonna be like lighting money on fire. Seems like a bad idea for Floyd to try to jump into that business to me.

        What was he supposed to do? Chat **** after MILLIONS watched him QUIT?
        Lets not act like many combat sports guys (boxers & MMA guys) don't act like there was homecooking on scorecards or throwing out a million excuses post-L. Thats the average post fight speech of a guy who lost lets not bs.

        But that said Conor did ****talk. He gave Nate Diaz his props, but he took a huge **** on Jose Aldo a couple of times postfight.

          Mayweather never initiated any of this crap. It's UFC fighters mentioning him. Rousey even got her photo on the The Ring magazine's cover, because she kept on going about how she could beat Floyd.

              Then he got out and made 300+ million dollars for a 36 minute sparring session and retired happily ever after.


              Anyhow, I'm sure MMA scumbags know better now not to bring up Floyd to sell their garbage. Silva got KTFO, then it was Rousey and now it's that Gregor guy. Tapped like a wuss too. He quit, like a coward.

              Funnily enough, Chris Weidman was the only one who was respectful towards TBE.
