Can anyone STAND Floyd?

    What do you mean by long term? As long as he keeps winning, he's fine. He's got nothing but mega bouts ahead of him. So while his "appeal" won't work in the long term, he'll still be making plenty of money. And, in case you haven't noticed, that's what he's trying to get.

    You mean Oscar did a very good job.

    You can definitely say that. But it's not a coincidence that Oscar's highest PPV numbers came with Floyd as the supporting act. And what an act it was. Who was the star of 24/7? Oscar and Millie sharing an espresso? Or Floyd Mayweather talking sh*t while eating chips on a plane?

    Floyd is a star and Oscar helped get him there. Of course, it didn't come without a price. Looks like the Golden Boy will continue to have a hand in promoting Floyd for a while. Their rematch will make three in a row, I believe.

    Funny how you guys forgot how he talked WELL before he fought Castillo. You guys are acting like this is some NEW schtick :laughing: He was even MORE embarrassing back then with is ridiculous talk because he didn't have the kind of w's over the DLH types and Hatton's :rolleyes:

    It came with 24/7 and THE biggest promotion in boxing. No one gave a shit about Floyd, he was obviously the young relatively unknown with a delusional mouth that was supposed to get beat by a well known, but past it boxer that everyone's wives would let them buy PPV everytime. Since that script didn't work, now Floyd is basking in the script of the "greatest boxer eva" nonsense because he beat the great Oscar and was on "Dancing with the Stars". Floyd is a fraud and his recent mainstream success had little to do with anything he did on purpose :nono:

    Nonsense. Get your personal feelings out the way and think rationally.

    Really, I'd love to dissect this post but it's not worth it. You clearly have a bias that affects your reasoning when it comes to Floyd. Carry on.

    It was reposted that was bullshit, and he actually getting about a million.

    Nothing to scoff at for what he has to do for the money, and the exposure is good, but he is getting 1 million, not 10.

    That's Another Thing that REED just DOESN'T Get...

    It's as if Floyd Naysayers R BOTHERED by the Mere Idea of him Making 20mil for his WWE Appearance...REED's Heard Plenty Say,"Oh No, it's REALLY ____ Amount"...

    But like U Said, Floyd is QUOTING an Amount w/the Fucking CHECKWRITER Sitting Beside Him:lol: ...

    & Considering this'll Probably B THE HIGHEST GROSSING Wrestling PPV EVER, it's NOT That Hard to Believe that Floyd'll Get 20mil...

    Think about it, the TOP Grossing Boxing AND Wrestling PPV's will have 1 COMMON Thread...

    Floyd Mayweather...

    Yet Peeps Still ARGUE Over how "Mainstream" he Is???



    REED:lol:

    REED and IMDAZED, trust me, he really isn't getting that much. That's more than any wrestler has made in the history of wrestling, and it's not like Floyd is a Tyson or Oscar type of household name.

    Even Oscar wouldn't be offered that much to participate in the WWE.

    It's all part of the act. Wrestling is fake, we all know that, and him getting 20 million is to perpetuate his character, and his "money" monicker etc.

    Trust me, when his WWE stint is done, you'll find out he got closer to 1 million.

    AND???:dunno:

    U Make it Seem like DeLa is a SELF MADE Millionaire or Something...Just like DeLa ASSISTED Floyd N Getting where he Is Financially, Bob Arum ASSISTED Dela N Getting where HE is Financially...

    If Not for Arum, there'd b NO "Golden Boy"...EVERY FACET of DeLa was SCRIPTED by Arum...

    DeLa GOT Floyd to a Certain Point...Now Floyd is Carrying HIMSELF, Unless "Golden Boy" CO-Promoted his Dancing w/the Stars Appearance & Wrestlemania, Unbeknownst to REED...

    But REED's Thing is, WHY R People Sooooooooo GUNG-HO about Proving Floyd ISN'T Making 20 mil???:dunno: ....

    If Floyd SAYS he's Making 20 mil, yet Actually Pockets $5, it DOESN'T Affect REED Either Way...But Floyd NAYSAYERS R BOTHERED by his SALARY & how "Mainstream" Floyd IS or ISN'T.....

    Like IMDAZED Alluded to, Floyd HATERS R MORE CONCERNED w/Floyd than Floyd FANS R....

    REED:cool:

    Oh well, to be honest I don't really care.

    I mean, in a way that would be fairly cool if floyd DID pocket 20 mil. It would be amusing, a boxer waltzes into a wrestling organisation and makes more than any wrestler in history :lol:

    By Kenneth was using the figure to big floyd up, and I was just pointing out that he is almost certainly not making that much.

    It would be like an MMA fighter coming into boxing, and makign more than any boxer in history has been paid. It makes no sense, and would not happen.

    It's part of the gig, I am sure.

    U're Probably RIGHT...

    SAYING he's Getting 20 Mil is a WIN-WIN for Floyd AND Vince McMahon...It BOLSTERS the "Money May" Image & Makes Vince look like a HIGH Roller as Well...

    :lol: Honestly.

    I mean, I feel either pity or embarassment when he does his silly routines, so you can equate that to NOT liking the guy.

    I've never been one for arrogance or trash talk and such.

    But I DO admire what he does in the ring, and I'm not sitting around hoping and praying that he gets his head knocked off. :dunno:

    Other boxers DO inspire that kind of feeling....but not Mayweather; because it all feels so obviously contrived and he's so bad at being a "bad boy." :lol:

    Peace.

    My bad, Floyd is a genius and the DLH numbers were because of it. Thanks for your unbiased posts :clap:

    No argument here :dunno: Glad even you stayed away from how much of a genius he is, and how this "act" is something new and the cause he made all by himself :rolleyes:

    It's mainly because of ridiculous fans going on and on, thread after thread about how great it is how much money he is making.

    Since WHEN is Tripling or QUADRUPLING your Earnings NOT a "Great" Thing???:dunno: ...

    & Who Gives a Fuck HOW Floyd Makes the Money or WHO is Responsible for him Making the Money???...

    If YOU Made a Million Dollars TOMORROW, would YOU Give a Flying Fuck about WHO was Responsible for Getting YOU N 2 that Position???...

    Of Course U WOULDN'T...

    Yet Floyd NAYSAYERS R Trying to Convince THEMSELVES that Floyd's Earnings R IRRELEVANT Cause Certain Entities CONTRIBUTED...As if ANY Boxer Becomes RICH w/Out Someone Else HELPING them..

    REED has Made it CLEAR that he DOESN'T Give a Fuck if Floyd Makes 20 Mil OR $5...It's NOT like REED is Getting a Dime of it...

    If YOU Tripled or QUADRUPLED YOUR Earnings, would YOU Consider that a "Great Thing"???...Well, REED is Pretty Sure Floyd would Consider his Earnings from 2006 til Now a "Great Thing"...

    The REALLY REAL Question is, WHY R YOU Sooooooooo Concerned about Another Mans Wallet???....

    REED "Mentioned it" Because it was a FRIVOLOUS Punctuation to your Post...

    YOU Felt the Need to VISUALIZE your Emotional State N the Form of a Rolling Eye Smiley & REED Merely Let YOU Know that you were WASTING your Time, as if REED Actually GIVES a Fuck about YOUR Emotional, Perpetually MENSTRUAL Ways:lol: ...

    & as USUAL, the INSTANT U Get your Half Assed, Saw Off "Point" PIMPSLAPPED, U ALTER the Topic of a Thread to Suit your TROLLish Needs...
