    What I saw was a son having a very real, and painful argument with his father. Unfortunately, the timing meant that this argument was captured in front of the cameras. People fight, and there were some real issues that a lot of people can not empathize with, because they did not go through similar situations. That is why alot of people are dismissing Floyd as disrespectful, and dumb. If you have been emotionally or physically abused or abandoned as a child then you will recognize the pain in floyd's face. I'm speaking from experiece. The wounds that leave no scars hurt the most!

    He's none too smart, that's for sure.


    But he's still the most skilled boxer on the planet.

    It's not funny and I hate it, but I've seen worse...sad as that may seem. I don't know that any of is can relate to the root issues of this deal. We haven't lived it, thankfully.

    Floyd is a douche bag end of story!

    The whole thing was so uncomfortable he has no class or respect handling his dad that way.

    I used to be a big fan but that is undefendable.

    I actually remember Floyd giving some interview a while back telling the story. And It's pretty clear Floyd still holds some anger towards his pop. I do sympathize with Floyd but only to a point......at some stage a man has got to learn and overcome the hardships from his childhood.

    lol grow the **** up. This is his family, he has obviously had hostility towards his father for quite some time. His dad always shows up to his gym and trys to run the place, even though Floyd and his uncle don't need him.

    Bottomline is this.... People have arguments with their family members EVERY ****ING DAY, get over it.


    p.s. "I dunno about blacks if they let their own sons talk to them like that but if they are then they are a bunch of push overs" This statement proves you are an idiot. Your opinion is irrelevant.

    I don't have to deal with anything it wasn't me embarassing myself like that on national television. Defend him all you want, he is still a douche in my eyes and how he spoke to his dad was disgusting. I know the day his children speak to him like that he will cry like a b1tch.

    Go look at my posts I have been a HUGE fan of Mayweather but this goes too far!

    Real Talk^

    I'm starting to believe some of these fools grew up in the Brady Bunch. Many households have issues and the Mayweather family is no different. I'm more shocked of how shocked people in this thread are acting. The history between Floyd Sr. and Jr. is well documented, and people act like this is such a travesty for them to come close to straight up brawl. Hey people, they have only been going back and forth for years. What did ya'll think this was a joke.

    Side Note: The same people who base Floyd's intelligence off of a an argument are probably the same type of people who think a person without a college education is incapable of intellectual thought.
