    Only a very small handful of white ******** in america call black people african american. The ones who think all white people owe black people something for the actions of a very small number of southern white people hundreds of years ago. Most black people abd white people say black and white

        The pot calling the kettle black! Floyd could be correct, but he's the absolute last person in the boxing industry to make this claim! Imagine Mike Tyson or Osar De La Hoya criticizing Tyson Fury for substance abuse.

            When your own father saw you fight like a pussay in the ring. You lost that fight.



            When your own father going ballistic thinking you lost. It only means one thing. If you win, it meant Vegas judges saved him.



            @ around 2:05 - Floyd maywewther losing man. They favor him.

            @ 2:20 Floyd jr to Floyd Snr.: no matter what I love you.. (ready to lose)

              He's right. The likes of him and Manny earned their status.

              Young fighters now want to act like divas and ask for millions when they have barely fought anybody, and they get it too. That's why it's hard to make a good fight. Jacobs said it himself, why take a fight where you will probably get smashed when you can earn the same against 2 easy opponents.

              Can't really blame the fighters though. I wouldn't go and do a job that is 5x as hard for slightly better reward.

                exactly

                Floyd thinks these Generation Y fighters are too entitled.

                He didn't know how to get it out

                  May be the reason why meaningful fights are not getting made these days. They're too expensive to make.

                    Floyd right, these fighters are making money demands With no leverage,

                    None if these fighters seem to understand that the only reason they got inflated purses was because promoters could leverage Floyd and Pacs ppv.

                    Without the ppv stars there is no money, hence no leverage.

                    Everyone gets paid less, HBO understands this, I don't know whats taking Haymon/Showtime so long to understand that.

                      That was another hypocritical statement by Floyd. You don't clean up the sport by hiring Pacquiao's S&C coach, Alex Ariza! "2 wrongs don't make a right!"
