Now he is just a C-List celebrity that barely gets mentioned on shows & the internet even though he wants to pretend he's a megastar.

Barely gets mentions on the internet?You joking right?

I'm not a big fan of Floyd, but the way the broadcast team was talking so bad about him was just embarassing on HBO's part.

Floyd is pretty much famous for being famous. To the general public he's the black guy that beat Oscar in one of the biggest fights in history. Take ten steps in any direction outside of that and they really don't know much more about the guy aside from the fact that he's a boxer. I'm not trying to **** on the guy but he definitely isn't A-List. Your bank account doesn't determine your celebrity.

If he barely gets mentioned on the internet then why are so many people in here talking about him?
