      No man wears another man's Jersey or let's his woman do the same. I don't care what feminine "male" fans of other sports do.

        You'd think with all of his money and fame he could've done something positive with it.
        Ali was no saint, but that is a different subject.

          You mean like women who wear other men's last name on their back when wearing a jersey?

          This has to be one of the dumbest posts I've seen

            If you would wear another man's jersey or allow your woman to wear another man's jersey, you aren't a real man.

                Lol I personally don't wear jerseys since I was like 20 cause it's kinda weird thinking about it. But who cares millions of people do, doesn't mean they're obsessed or whatever dumb reasoning you came up with

I give him that, but if you can't respect how he wins, you obviously can't respect him for his life out of the ring. It makes him easy to hate.
                  lol, gtfoh with that bs.

                  Sound like the type of person who had no qualms defending Mike Tyson, even when the world found out how **** a human being he was, just because he flattened folks.

                  Go on and hate yourself somewhere else.

                    Maybe you should qualify your title and ask "Why do a few Floyd fans...?" Some Floyd fans appreciate his otherworldly boxing skills and don't give a shit beyond that.

                    It seems to me, on this site, his detractors talk about him more than his fans. Like him or not, Floyd will be remembered in the boxing world for a very long time.

                    Cheers
