Video is to long. Most people won't watch it. I watched it a cpl weeks ago. Very good video. Brings up a lot of things people either don't know about or ignore.

I already knew most of it but there was one part he did kinda clarify something. HBO sent Floyd to KO Nation as a punishment after he called HBO's contract offer "slave wages". KO Nation was beneath Boxing After Dark. There is no reason Floyd should've been on KO Nation against Augustus. Augustus was always an exciting fighter. HBO brought Corrales from Showtime and gave him fights on the Winky Wright vs. Fernando Vargas undercard right before the main event. Then he headlined his own card against Smoke Gainer and Floyd fought on that undercard. Then he fought Junko (a guy Floyd had already beat) on the Mosley vs. De la Hoya undercard. The fight right before the main event. Then he got another headliner when he fought Manfredy, another guy Floyd had already beat.

HBO invested in Corrales to make him a bigger star than Floyd. Floyd has put in his time, took the shorter end of the stick, and put in the cost to be the boss. Nothing was handed to him. He had to fight to prove HBO wrong and his Promoter wrong who thought smaller black fighters could never be stars like black heavyweights or smaller mexican fighters. The objective of the game is to keep fighters broke fighting wars of attrition for glory and admiration of the fans while the promoters and networks cash out. Promoters, last in the ring, first to get paid. Then retire broke and bitter and brain damaged by the time they're 40. Floyd beat the game. Pay attention to Andre Ward's situation.

This^^^^^

Had to force myself to sit through the whole thing. Dude is fumbling through pages, long awkward pauses throughout the video, like he forgot what he wanted to talk about. Man get your crap straight before you do a video like this. Garbage
