    Only a fool will judge somebody they don't know personally the public are like sheep and have been played by Floyd like a fiddle.
    aren't you tired of slurping your demigod nuts? for your fucking sake, once in a while please take a rest of the non-stop slurping and breathe some fresh air.

If you got rid of all of the Mayweather, Pac, GGG, Ward/Kov threads, there would be nothing to talk about around here. I notice you are quick to jump to his defense every chance you get. How many threads do you participate in that aren't related to Mayweather or Pac?

      Now you're coming at me with fictional Batman characters? Ok.
      And you still don't get it, maybe in 10 yrs or so your brain has matured enough to understand how the world buys and sells villains and heroes, in the mean time keep hating on guys for the role they play is so narrow minded, guys you will never know other than what you are spoon fed by people selling something.

      Its quite comical how youth is so gullible because of all the superficial garbage there is today from facebook to chat rooms, youre a product of the Pepsi generation where reality takes the backseat and BS rules.

          I agree with that.

          The funny thing is, Floyd basically admits he plays the role and it's a persona and people still don't want to see it. He literally said last night in the interview "i'm just giving the fans what they want to hear".

          The oldest scripts in literature stories, movies etc.is essentially involving heroes and villains and it's continued right up to the present day. Go watch any action movie at a cinema today and that will be the format. It sells and the reason the likes of McGregor and Floyd get so much attention is simply because they capitalise on it. It gets the audience emotionally invested in the fight by either hatred or willing a fighter to win.

          I'm sure they don't think about it that in depth from a historical standpoint but they say certain things and act a certain way and see the attention it gets, so they just run with it.

          There's a reason this fight is so huge, it's not because of what happens in the fight, it's because of their public persona. It's the only reason the fight is happening in the first place. It's not real. It's show business and entertainment and it baffles me how people can't see it.

            I liked Floyd in that interview yesterday.

            The Floyd that Brian Kenny interviewed on Friday Night Fights almost 10 years ago is the Floyd that I dislike. I also don't understand why Floyd has such a chip on his shoulder when it comes to Oscar DeLahoya. There's no need to continue being an @ss after all these years. But, yeah, when Floyd is rational he can come across as a decent guy. Similar to Mike Tyson in that way. Sometimes they fly off the handle and lose control but when they're feeling good they're very likable.

              You are acting as though you know him personally and vouching for his character. I don't ten years or even ten more minutes to know you are a shameless fanboy. Guys like you are a dime a dozen and I got a nickel to spend.
