The Hatton fight aside I was pretty ambivalent towards Mayweather until I heard that radio interview when he was convinced he was a better fighter than Ali, Robinson and Leonard purely because they had losses on their records and he didn't. He went on and on about them having lost and just didn't get it that it was because they'd fought better fighters than he had.
The fella's a moron and i think it hurts him knowing he knows himself he really couldn't live with the greats of yesteryear. I think the Castillo I fight knocked a lot of the confidence from him (hard fights wise). I wish that guy knew a bit more about boxing and really hammered him like the other guy did that time.
Oh well another Floyd bull**** rant. As the DJ says "when in trouble play the racecard" You've got a black chappie as President, what more do you want?
There's allot of institutionalist racism towards Floyd Mayweather. People cannot cope, that he basically runs boxing. Nobody can **** him over, because he will probably **** them over, weather that be in the business room..? or weather that be outside the confinements of the law. He's a business within a business "which is boxing", which is a sport which is dying. People keep saying that boxing is doing well..? No. Floyd Mayweather is doing well. He cannot save boxing, no fighter can even if they wanted to. The situation is bigger than that, its culturism that has change around the world, which is the main reason why boxing has lost its fundamental once cultural place in cities around the world. And the impact of other olympic sports becoming professional........... I'm not a massive Floyd Mayweather fan, i think he can be abit of twat. Only because he is very insecure, but that flaw in his personality. Is what makes me at times, kind of support him against whoever aposes him. Floyd Mayweather is one of very few boxers that are left that actually stand for something..? Its the reason why he is never out of shape, its the reason why..? when he retired, he would still run his miles go to he fitness gym, its the reason why..? He keeps chanting hardwork dedication. "Productivity"......Floyd Mayweather simply stands for Winning. And all the principles that are involved in making a winning effort. WIthout him even realises it, he has conditioned the mind of many people imprinting his principles deep on a sub-atomic level. Floyd Mayweather is a bi-product of winning, he was created through winning. He is a principle, that has taken on a human form. HARDWORK....... DEDICATION. Simple........
Floyd and the radio guy both understand what they're doing. They're just playing the game. Floyd satisfies his lust for the spotlight, the radio guy gets a few more hits. Bish, bash and bosh everyone's happy.
He's been a well paid side show for the last 5+ years bu t how does he dictate the whole sport? Does he impact the HW scene? Oriental boxing? Small hall Mexican shows? The Super 6?
When you hold on to something so dear it becomes true regardless of reality, it negates any introspection and capitalises on ignorance. The more you think about it the truer it becomes, the more people respond to your delusional claims the more valid they appear.
The Super Sixx is **** and a complete and utter failure economically and in terms of media and advertisement. "Floyd Mayweather isn't just a fighter, he is a asset. He is a walking business, Floyd Mayweather is a brand" Very rarely do athlete's individual sports reach this level of notoriety/political and economical influence and dominance. Usain Bolt has reached this level, who was officially one of the most marketable athletes on the planet. Grossing puma nearly half a Billion in terms of advertisement and copy right etc... Floyd Mayweather is also on this level, not even Manny Pac is on this level. He's a superstar Manny Pac, but over the whole body of work he does not have the impact of Floyd Mayweather Junior. He dictates the whlole sport, just like them guys on wall street affect the american encomony. It was only a matter of a time, it was only a matter of time.........
