    He doesn't back up what he advertises. He's arrogant, greedy, flaunts money. ATGs like SRL Ali weren't greedy, they didn't flaunt money.

    When he rubs in that fact that he's rich, he deserves to be held to the highest possible standard. I'd have more respect for Floyd if he just was more humble. He could be rich, he could have a mansion, the best health care, the best cars, all that is fine. He's worked hard for that, but he flaunts it and that's wrong. It's sends the wrong message.

    Ali or SRL never did that and therein lies the problem. Manny is a much better role model and embassador of the sport than Floyd.

    I love the way things are going. People like Lomachenko, Crawford, Canelo, Thurman etc all exist, all bordering on greatness that is there for the picking.

    Mayweather won't be truly appreciated until he's gone, and that's a god damn shame.

    Mayweather brought in this legion of fan boys that don't know **** about boxing other than Mayweather himself and him being undefeated. They think he wins every round of every fight regardless of what happens. Once Mayweather retires and all his fan boys fade out, we will be better off.
