Floyd Mayweather Jr. Speaks, Blasts "Racist" HBO

[Shem]

I think floyd is seriously just seeking attention from the media/fans.

Nah, I think it's more than that. It's a build up of resentment and he just vented.

[Shem]

Floyd needs to get more media savvy if he wants to be their golden boy. .

Yep. He really does. I'm not sure he will though.

I always laugh at how jealous these NSB posters are of Floyd Mayweather, Jr. His success, talent and wealth just eats you guys up inside.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

this guy is such an ass!!!!! no wants wants to hear u talk unless ur ready to fight. If u have retired then go away and enjoy the rest of ur life!

Then whydo you guys keep posting threads about HIM?? I haven't heard him say **** about YOU.

I agree. There are so many ways in which Floyd hasn't helped himself imo. But that's not to say his point isn't valid about racism...I think a lot of the hatred he has is down to his race as well. It's a factor, I don't care about no Tyson, Ali SRL blah blah. Floyd is just one of them blacks that people just can't stand.

people can't stand ffloyd because he is an *******. not because he is black.

He'll be back,
Course he will.
He's the BEST

Him throwing money around has everything with how people percieve him. People love Pacquiao and Pavlik for the same reasons they did Hagler and hearns. They can relate to somebody who doesn't talk about themselves, their money and their bling all the time, but goes in there and just does the job. They can relate to someone who is supremwly confident, but not arrogant. As far as you doubting he would have made it to the HOF had he not won 5 titles in 5 divisions.......thats a load of crap. floyds talent and what he accomplished just at 130 ensure his induction. People don't like him because he acts like a jerkoff. But no objective boxing fan doubts his talent or accomplishments.

If people love Pacquiao so much, WHY DON'T HIS FIGHTS SELL? Where are all the Pavlike PPV's?

Please help me understand.

The Point Floyd is Trying to Make is that, The HBO crew Calls His fights recently as if they want him to Lose...

And being the Premiere Boxing Network, They should at Least Have the Perception that they dont care who wins the fight...But they dont...

YOU GET THE FEELING THAT THEY WANT TO SEE MAYWEATHER LOSE...


Thats why He feels it is Racism...Because They do not give off the Perception that they are netural...

That's not racism moron, that's just not liking him. smarten up, you closed minded prick. is that racism?

[seebert]

smart post

Mayweather was wrong about them being racist, but hard on him? Definately, you definately see the difference, the unenthusiam as he knocked out hatton etc. The announcing team seemed very uncaring and bored that he did it. However it wasnt that their racist, i dont think that, i do think they have their preference of fighters though, definately, thats one thing you all complain of all the time, and its true, they do treat different fighters differently.

Alot of the criticism he gets he brings upon himself partly with interviews like this though and wording **** wrong. Im sure ill have everyday on boxingscene to remind me regardless.

ironically, i agree with 'black jesus' about racism. good post.

The fact you think people on a forum are jealous of someones wealth, talents and success makes me realize you're probably an 18 year old. How is that a valid point to argue? Discuss boxing for once. Not pay per view numbers please.
