    REED and Xplosive.... some great comments guys:bears::bears:
    Dawg.... Yeah! that is the thing ain't is? Being a real friend to people sometimes means saying things they don't want to hear.

    Muze thanks for saving me the trouble of calling Neil on that one but I have to say this as well:

    The source is dubious so I wouldn't be askin for no crow eaten yet TFK.... of course we all know what will happen in the near future, it is no mystery.

    Unfortunately what eats at me is that Floyd knows how to listen when he puts his mind to it! Roger is an example of that and whatever language Roger may choose to speak the man is smart as shit in what he knows and why can't Floyd find someone who is smart in the same way that handles money? :dunno:

    Its just a damn shame is all and Floyd never asked to be anybody's role model btw.

    a lot of you fellows seem awfully quick to be taking that joke of an article as the gospel truth. I'd like to see something substantiating those claims not written by a person named "Large"

    I will start a blog and write an "article" claiming Floyd just increased his fortune to $350, 000, 000 because of some astute investment on real state in France supported by no evidence or even quotes from people close to him. Maybe they'll buy that too.

    Since Legally Changing YOUR Last Name to "Mayweather", this HAS to B Disappointing News that's Difficult to Accept...

    I have no problem admitting if I was wrong, but this is not 'news'. its a blog written by some chap named 'Large' . as far as mayweather goes, I've been more objective about his career to date than you have.

    reed you simply aren't objective when gauging mayweathers talent in the ring and how he would fare against certain foes.

    Examples???:dunno:...

    Despite HIS Claims of Being the Greatest Ever, REED has Maintained that Guys like Hearns, Pryor, Duran & Ray Leonard would've OWNED Floyd @ 140 or 147...

    It's Also Common Knowledge that Most RICH Young Men R TRICKS ("It Ain't Tricking if U Got it", as the Saying Go's), wherever they Live...But Only a Select FEW R Compelled to Note that on a Messageboard...

    Agreed about the article toots but you can't really believe that Mayweather is not going to blow his cabbage! Arrogant? You are indeed but I thought you were a lot smarter than that Neil!

    Wholly on that basis... and I can't stress this point enough, I would say Reed is correct in this tet a tet!

    REED and Xplosive - it's good that you finally see the score with Floyd.

    I totally agree he's a bad role model, and I was kind of surprised in the past that you both supported and liked him, moreso than just recognizing that he's a very good fighter.

    Personally, if I was black I would feel the same way, ashamed that he was a black man, and certainly wouldn't want him as a role model to young black fighters etc.

    I've always despised Floyd.

    Ironically though, I've always loved Tyson :lol:

    The difference is though, Tyson is just a bit of a fuckup, he doesn't make a conscious effort to be an utter twat like Floyd does.

    REED's Kept these Issues to Himself, but they've Been There Since the 24/7 Episodes...Whether it's Accurate or Not, this Latest "News" just Made it BUBBLE to the Surface...

    Despite Being a Fuck-Up Himself, Tyson's Always Maintained a Level of HUMILITY that Makes him LIKABLE...Tyson's his Own WORST Critic, which ENDEARS him to People...w/Floyd, he ALWAYS Wants to Look like he's RIGHT & BETTER than those Around him...

    Tyson's More of a SYMPATHETIC Figure than Floyd Could EVER B...

    plenty of people in vegas know of mayweather's extensive tricking habits. I've seen several topics where you have shown blind faith in mayweather jr, and because you think he'd lose to the best of the best at welter doesn't speak otherwise. the guy isn't even on the welterweight radar in the grand scheme of things. as far as the least objective fans of mayweather jr, you're neck and neck with slystaff. just because I've been around the guy doesn't lump me in with you chaps, I can clearly see and admit to his limitations in the ring.

    Again, EXAMPLES???....

    REED can ADMIT to Being BLINDLY (DEAFLY & DUMBLY) Faithful to Roy Jones, but REED has NEVER Held Floyd N that Same Regard...So if we're Gonna Continue w/this Back & Forth, U're Gonna have to Provide Something CONCRETE, Neil Mayweather...

    REED's also Been Around Floyd (Albeit Briefly), yet REED is Criticizing him NOW...Is that NOT "Objective"???....

    I'm referring to your objectivity, or lack there of, concerning mayweather jr's boxing ability. nothing else. I guess I don't keep tabs on everything you say to search back into threads for specifics...but the last few years I've been left with the general impression that slystaff & yourself hold mayweather in a higher pugilistic regard than his boxing abilities warrant. pointing out you shill more rigorously for jones jr is as irrelevant as skip bayless saying he's less critical of lebron james than he is of your dallas cowgirls

    Concerning Floyd's Boxing Ability, REED has Thought of him as the BEST Fighter of THIS Particular Era, as MOST have...No MORE, No LESS...But it's NOT as if REED has Portrayed Floyd as Being UNbeatable...On the "End of the Year" Threads, REED Voted Floyd as "Most DISAPPOINTING" for 2008...Not to Mention the VARIOUS Mythical Matchups that REED has Picked Floyd to LOSE...

    Where's YOUR History of Criticizing Floyd???....

    REED is QUITE Confident that MOST Fightbeaters would Label YOU a Bigger Mayweather SHILL than REED....

    my history is simple. I've never made any claims about mayweather jr's greatness. aside from him being one of the greatest lightweights ever.

    So Neil... would you pick Floyd over the likes of Whitaker, Chavez, Duran, and Pryor?

    And who do you consider greater between him and Roy?

    While Roy hasn't lived extravagantly (that we know of) I do recall Merchant saying that from what he heard Roy did need money due to how much cash he has sunk into his record label and supporting the acts he signed. Considering the source, you never know.

    Ever since I saw how Floyd acted on 24/7 (DLH & Hatton fights) I commented on how retarded he is with money. Mind you, just because he owes $6 million in taxes it doesn't mean he's broke. He might have to have a yard sale to raise the cash. He's only broke if his debts are greater than his assets.

    Bet he's wishing he had that $7 million in jewelry...could sell a few pieces and get this straightened out.

    One last damn time...I'd mentioned his near $500,000 tax lien against his Baldomir purse on the heels of the $5 million payday from the Gatti fight. It's no surprise he didn't get wise and handle his business better.

    I'd pick mayweather jr over none of the above and consider jones jr the greatest boxer I've seen fight live.

    "Like I Said Before", it's VERY DOUBTFUL that Floyd is "Broke" by REGULAR People Standards...But by his OWN "Money May" Standards, Shit's Getting TIGHT...

    Could Leonard Ellerbe's Free Ride B N JEOPARDY???....

    Tyson doesnt even like Floyd anymore. That should tell you something.

    If Iron Mike just rolled up on Floyd, and broke his jaw.. I think it'd be the best thing to happen in boxing all year.

    Floyd made fun of Judah saying he was a "thousandaire"...Floyd might be joining him soon.
