    No out of context, just straight up Floyd for 18 minutes straight (A Part 3 is on the way apparently).

    Floyd makes a decent point. He says he fights for money, and says Pac fights to make fans happy and for legacy. He fight for early on titles and P4P but it's mainly the money. He wants to be the best in boxing but just wants to be treated fair.

    He also said, "Checks is more important than legacy."

    Interviewer, "Would you like the fight to happen (With Pac)."

    Floyd, "Absolutely, but we got to see if he wants to get it on."

    I guess hearing Floyd entire interview rather than little blips/clips isn't interesting?

    It's interesting. I think he's trying to get the upper hand in business. He won't budge at all. Everything that he says isn't quite consistent but at least he's presenting something from his perspective I guess.

    Yep, the interviewer was smart. He didn't budge or question or try to get Floyd on the defensive. He was as open and kind as he could be to let Floyd express himself freely.

    All you could here was how great he is and how he wants to give himself a head job.

    yeah i wish there was ****ing more parts man....

    when he started talking about bhop that was some real **** he was saying... same thing about the ali stuff... that **** is crazy

    i feel like there is a lot of things that go through boxers mind that you could only understand on a high level...

    floyd reminded me of cotto when he was saying .. arum & roach would not be getting in the ring with manny pacquiao on the night of the fight... even thouhg cotto lost he was saying the same exact thing

    "The fans won't feed my kids"

    Doesn't he realise we already have? Without boxing fans he would be working 9 to 5, he owes us a real fight.

    Thanks for sharing. He does have some valid points.

    Interesting that he said, he is in a no win situation if he fights pacquiao (small and had losses) and mosley (38 yrs old and had losses).

    Void refused to fight Pac before the Cotto fight. Roach tried, but Void ran.

    If it wasn't about money then pac would take a 60-40 cut for "legacy"
