Why does Floyd likes to portray himself as a gladiator, a warrior or a gangster?

    It doesn't bother what he does Micahel Katsidis wears a gladiator helmet but no one puts that under the microscope ..But when Floyd does it its headlines ..Boxing always needs a show in and outside of the ring .

    Yes. Katsidis although not in Floyd's level, he fights like a savage, like a gladiator. So it fits him better. Agree or disagree? It's no big deal.

    The Floyd hate around here is real. Some of you criticize everything the man does. Now he's being criticized for magazine shoots? C'mon! How is this any different than when actors pose in different costumes for photo shoots and movies, dressed as gangsters and gladiators? You attack them too?

    :patsch This thread has nothing to do with hate. Is that all you can ****in talk about?

    Are you aware of the topic? Look...I don't care if he sells himself as some sort of Gladiator who's going to KO everyone he fight...the questions is why does he constantly portray that image, says he going to do this and that, and yet fight NOTHING like what he says even if the opportunity is there. He could have KO'd JMM in my opinion. He could have seriously beat Baldomir in an entertaining fashion (like he did Gatti. One sided yet entertaining).

    And the answer is showmanship and then the refusal to back it up in the ring. That is all. And that's hating? Some are saying worse things about Floyd...posting pics of him running (which I don't even say he does)...and you single ME OUT? Go away little boy.

    :good

    :lol: Na...just the idiots. But it's like Happy Gilmore playing dodge ball vs. those kids. Or Floyd fighting Baldomir. Utter mismatch I can't brag about. :D

    I'll probably be gone as quickly as I came!
