    I don't understand the eagerness of the famous people to appear on that crappy show....isn't it for faded and out of work celebrities? Now Mark Cuban is gonna be there too. :dunno:

    That's what Floyd will be once he gets KTFO.

    For just straight up money from sports Floyd will be the 2nd highest earner for this year behind Oscar De la Hoya. Thats hardly washed up celebrity status. The Floyd express is gaining momentum right now.

    It's a brilliant move by Floyd, he'll be seen by millions of people week after week and guess what they'll ask him about? the fight. I guess the biggest difference between what Tszyu did and Floyd is doing is that Floyd is gonna dance then go kick some ass, Tszyu danced to keep himself from another beating. :lol:

    It will really bite him in the ass if he losses though.

    How the fucks he gunna handle the criticism from the judges? :dunno: What if they say, "it was a poor, poor, performance, your out of your league son", and he puts on his bewildered wife-beating face and starts stuttering and bawling and throwing a bitch-fit?...His management usually protects him from situations like this with an ever present abundance of yes-men, if dancing with the stars is live to air, they might want to make this series a tape-delay in light of a reknown sociopath joining the skit.

    Thanks to his fight with Oscar this year, that kinda helped. Not to mention there are no superstars left in the sport.

    Im talking about the whole of sports. Tiger Woods earns the most overall but he earns 90% of his money from marketing not golf. So far i think Floyd was ranked in 11th overall for yearly earings from just sports income. Im sure hes on 8 figures for this fight and will make at least another 7 figures from his PPV cut when the fight does at least 500,000 buys.

    its poor timing.....if this show is as successful as i am lead to believe....then surely he can do this next year or the year after?.....i can see how it could work from a publicity point of view, but at the cost of his own preperation, its not worth it......it is a massive fight already

    After Hatton is done with him, dancing stars is all PBF is going to see:stir:

    With the way he handles money, it's gonna be a short ride for him.

    He throws child support down the throat of the riff-raff for one. That's gangsta.

    exactly...this could be a stroke of genius if floyd dances well and endears himself to the dancing with the starts audience.

    this is a weak post, because floyd never claimed to be a gangsta or wanting to be one, not even in that piece of shit music video he put out, and no gangsta would ever go on dancing with the stars, im sorry not all young black males have aspirations to being gangstas as you like to say

    Very true...

    "However"

    Floyd's ego is at an all-time high right now. When you watch the show (and I know you will) you'll have to tell us how Floyd handles negative criticism (if he gets any).

    not only that alot of people are going poke fun of him doing it period

    "I'm not a good dancer? Floyd Mayweather is the best dancer on this planet. Like I said before aint none got the dance steps I got, aint nobody danced the dancers I've danced, and like I said before aint nobody won the dance titles I've won. Like I said before tonight its gonna be blood, sweat, and tears for Floyd Mayweather on the dance floor."

    I hate Mayweather as much as the next guy "however" I'm hoping he surprises me and shows a charming/likeable side of himself. It'll go a long way toward helping the sport (I think).

    I caught him on a few talk shows after the DLH fight and you could tell he was trying to be a nice guy. It came off as forced.

    "Like I said before, I'm tap for tap the best dancer in the world. Don't matter who it is. Jennie Garth, Sabrina Bryan, Nia Peeples, whoever. These bitches can go out two ways - on their ass or on their face."

    :nono: Your as derranged and as paranoid as I am, I don't believe all black males have aspirations to be thug gangsta's...:lol: lol ??..when have I ever said anything like that before?..., would I say that about my babies Jermaine Taylor and Shane Mosely?..I said it was 'gangsta' because I can't take my eyes off Neil's lyrical signature and I presume it's from the psuedo-depraved genre of gangsta rap, thus Fraud's behaviour may or may not be appeasing to him... it's just a harmless assumption :dunno: , some people think the devil is cool, and it's thier right, just like I have a fascination with the evolutionary dynamics of the insect in my signature, it's not for everyone either.
