    according to Schaefer his TMT brand is pretty successful and they're starting to put it into stores now.

    Schaefer- "And with his TMT brand - he makes more money from the TMT brand than Pacquiao makes fighting. I've seen the numbers. TMT is one of the hottest apparel brands in the urban market today."

    Out of curiosity, what's the point of this thread? Although Floyd has an extravagant lifestyle I doubt he will **** away all his money. From some of his interviews it seems as if Floyd has investments which will still generate him some income but I doubt it will be as much as when he was fighting. I do think Floyd will eventually have to cut back on some of his spending habits but he is too smart to squander all of it away. Pac does have tax problems but there's a fix for that, from what I know he has a payment plan set up and the government has no reason to repossess properties as long as he keeps up with the payments. Pac is still a politician with a tv show, pro basketball career, business investments and endorsements which means he still has income too. The government benefits more from Pacquiao working.

    Floyd does have more money than Pacquiao but last time I checked, boxing wasn't about who has more money in the bank. What is your obsession with Floyd? Do you love him so much that you to have to defend his honor? I really believe that both Manny and Floyd are good people but TBH both have done some sh*tty things, maybe one more so than the other but whatever they do outside the ring isn't anybodys business but theres. At the end of the day, they're still not fighting which is a big loss to us boxing fans.

    I don't give a **** about who's good or bad I don't expect pro athletes to be role models.my thing is don't go around calling yourself the best ever when you for whatever reason refuse to fight the best.

    Didn't Floyd establish himself as the best first? So isn't the other way around?

    as far as him being scared you only need to look at his statements such as my health comes first that right there shows fear.if your health comes you would never have gotten into boxing in the first place.jr is also a hypocrite with the whole PED thing he accused Pacquaio and everyone in his camp of using ped's or dealing them then he goes ahead and hires pacquiao's strength coach alex ariza.lol you cant make this stuff up.there's also the fact that a bunch of his fighters from his promotion and gym have been caught using ped's such as bey and love.plus Pacquiao is now using vada which I believe is the most thorough drug testing there is.whats the excuse now.

    2 different times (documented on video) Floyd has stated that his health is more important that fighting Pacquiao. That right there tells you the reason for all the roadblocks.

    1. Is George Foreman scared...??? He refused to fight Keith McKnight, Foreman saying "Someone is going to get their jaw broke fighting him [McKnight]...!!!

    2. Boxers from Wild Card Gym have tested positive for PEDS---James Toney, to name one.

    3. Pacquiao is NOW using VADA...!!! Why not 5 years ago, when he was asked to take the test for the biggest fight of his career...???

    The ones I mentioned (dianabol and anavar) are pills, you can't get anything like testosterone in pill form though, pills are supposed to be taken with an injection cycle, so shakes alone don't prove anything.

    Unless someone can prove manny was injecting as well (which we all know we can't) then there was nothing of note in those shakes.

    WADA has a bad rep. They've tested fighters who have come up dirty and retested over and over until they came up clean then passed the clean tests on to the commision rather than the dirty ones.

    VADA actually catches cheats and reports it to the commision in charge.

    that's your opinion.
    most always had Floyd the best, pac could only claim the top spot while Floyd was waiting out a contract and resting. soon as he whooped jmm everyone had him in the top spot

    I agree, and that's kinda my point.

    Auto racing, like boxing, is inherently dangerous. A sport where, even without being reckless, you are one punch or late reaction behind the wheel from potential death. The thought that Senna was encouraging being cavalier about his wellbeing is comical.
