    It’s from the gangster Pretty Boy Floyd and I think it was also because in the amateurs he didn’t get hit or marked up much so his USA teammates called him that.

    Was that when Chang was a teenager and won the tournament? French open I think? I remember that one.

    It’s that whole “narcissistic rage” thing. Narcissists snap when they feel diminished or lose control over their subjects (like when their baby mama decides to date CJ Watson).

    Despite Floyd’s criticism for having dull fights, I thought he was a beautiful boxer to watch. I still like watching highlights of him. He was one of my favorite boxers, but I just grew sick of his bullshit. It takes a lot for me to turn on a fighter for personality traits, as a lot of my favorite boxers were abusive guys, but he’s just so unlikable.

    It also annoys me how casuals look at him and some even buy the bullshit about him trying to clean the sport. It’s not like I think the sport isn’t dirty and that Manny was clean, but Floyd was the one with the suspicious tests.

    Floyd isn't the most unlikeable man in boxing history until becomes an incest pedophile like the man he beat 120-108x3 in Carlos Baldomir

    What bugs me the most about Floyd are new casual fans of boxing that actually think he's the greatest boxer of all time simply because of his undefeated 50-0 record. When there's guys like Ali, Leonard, Duran, Robinson, Tyson and Holyfield that were defeated but challenged themselves fighting the very best.

    You beat me to it.

    The original Pretty Boy Floyd was an infamous bank robber/gangster.

    I dont get the hate against BF25. While his boxing opinions are sometimes questionable, he's polite and respectful. And anyway, it would be boring as hell if everyone one here had the same opinion

    I don't wanna be "that guy", but it is part of what I have to do as a mod. Don't call BF a homo for no reason. Arguing/debating with him, is fine; even cursing is fine, but the homo comment in this case was uncalled for.

    To further clarify, I don't care much if in the heat of arguing, curses like "fuckhead", "cunt", "asshole, "dickhead", ect.. are thrown around. That's just part of the Fightbeat culture, and we're all used to it.

    But any racial/ethnic/sexual orientation slurs are stepping over the line. And obviously, any family insults are also over the line.

    Mickey Bey went on some YouTube channel talking about Floyd the other day, pretty disturbing stuff and validates what others here have thought.

    Tank's net worth is around 3-4 million. That's absolutely fucking sad for an exciting fighter like him in his prime. With his latest fight flopping on PPV, Floyd probably shorted his guaranteed purse.

    Tank's networth isn't sad IMO. He is a millionaire still. I'd be more sympathetic if he actually fought somebody good.

    Pennies. That's early 90s shit for good ESPN fighters. Kevin Kelly money.

    I remember all the “feel good” underdog stories about Baldomir in 06’. The huge upset over Zab, and all the talk about how he sold feather dusters to get by and then he gets millions for Floyd to dust the floor with him.

    To quote Norman Stone, what a piece of shit he turned out to be.
