    I agree with the wise proposition that Fraud's groupies, eerily clamor and conjecture on the subject of Fraud's purses and PPV numbers, it was especially worse around two months before the De La Hoya fight, I believe it inspired one poster to create a poll entitled "Who has more cash?" (a) De La Hoya (b) Mayweather,...satire on the mania over the ridiculous fucken subject that dominated the boards at that time, and still, not a day goes by on here where I am not reminded of it in some way.

    I guess it's one of those things "if you have to ask, you will never understand" type thing when it comes to feeling good about Floyd's money.....:dunno:

    Yes, I must admit I don't get it, especially when his groupies make the claim that they don't care what he does or says outside of the ring, (as you can tell by the dancing with the stars and wrestlemania threads), ....but you'll be sure to hear the phrase make a welcome return when he throws his child support payments off the stage during a rap concert [​IMG].

    My thread isn't about "Is it working or not?" My thread is about the point that he is as unlikable a fighter as anyone in HISTORY.

    That was the point I was trying to make. Fantastic boxer?-without a doubt.
    Great moneymaker?-absolutely

    Likeable guy?-imo,..not at all.

    Like I've said before.......I started this thread asking if people liked Floyd. Not if he was great or not....Not if he was a moneymaker or not....NOT if his obvious dumb prickiness is paying dividends for him or not.

    Just asking does anybody else hate this obnoxious kid's guts like I do"? That's all.:rolleyes:

    sorry reed, but your reasoning for making a deep character judgment here is rather shaky, IMO.

    I've met Floyd several times in person - even well before I began writing. Is always respectful, always shows love and seems to be a fairly well-grounded person. That doesn't mean he's above my criticism; in fact - a couple years ago- I wrote a pretty long-winded article on this site about why he need to fight Margarito.

    See, I don't think you get it. If you wanna say someone "made" Floyd, fine. Whatever. If you wanna deny that he is ALREADY a crossover star, you don't live in this world. But if you start calling Floyd some loser and saying a bunch of stuff that, quite frankly, you know sh*t about then you have some, weird twisted hatred for the man.

    Lemme guess? Floyd's really that asshole he portrays in front of cameras and Oscar really is a PC guy who just wants to play with his dogs and snuggle with Millie. Get a clue. He plays this role just so he can elicit this kind of reaction from guys like you. And, deny it all you want, it's a major part of why he's banking. That, and the fact he's a great fighter in his prime.

    Yes but ...ah,.. groupies manage to find the good side of Floyd, even when he's starving his children and whipping various women across the lips with his knuckles, you can make this same argument for all notorious criminals, I think I recall Jeffrey Dahmer was a mild mannered chap and a friendly cooperative neighbour to those who met the man personally, look at it from his side, he was just a little hungry, and his modus operandi, like Fraud, made him a "big name", he's known all over the world, the joke is on us haters.

    I stopped reading after "I met Floyd several times" because I know the rest of the post would have to do with appologizing for him. Am I wrong? :popcorn:

    Ah, O.K..

    So that FACT that REED is Judging Floyd Based on PERSONAL, 1-on-1 INTERACTION w/him is "Shaky", but Guys Who've NEVER Met him & Judge him Based on what they See on T.V. have Got it RIGHT???...

    Got'Cha...

    Hey, it's YOUR Prerogative to HATE Whoever's Guts U Wish...

    If Peeps Got a 1-Sided Perspective of YOU, you'd Probably have HATERS as Well...But that Wouldn't Necessarily Mean U're ALWAYS a "Dumb, Obnoxious Prick"...

    Now we're making Jeffrey Dahmer references :laughing:

    The bottom line is, if you dug a little deeper into the lives of most boxers, you'd probably find sh*t as equally disturbing as anything Floyd has done.

    We like to pick and choose the people we hate and turn a blind eye to the wrongdoings of those who we like. Whatever the case, you don't know him. We don't know how good or bad he is. What we do now, however, is the role he plays in front of the cameras is netting him some serious coin.

    The fact is, what we all KNOW about Floyd is that he is an uncharismatic, phony, trash talkin punk that doesn't have anything to like about him as a person other than his FANTASTIC fighting ability.

    He projects an image that here in the past 3 or 4 years...SELLS,...but he at the same time projects an image that from a human standpoint, isn't likeable, appealing or respectable.

    Appologizing again, you stoop so low to say " I bet most boxers are not cool too" :lol: Previously it was said he was cool for 15 seconds in person, so it is all an act and you know him better than what is shown on tv :laughing:

    Second grader logic when defending one's hero.....

    Express a little logic to Fraud instead of cock-nibbling and this [​IMG] turns into this [​IMG].

    Here's what he's like when he's the guest of a Boxingtalk text chat-------[​IMG] ,
