    Not true. It's not just him. Paul Williams supposedly fights like fans say they want Floyd to fight but he gets extreme hatred too.

    Let me ask you this where were the Floyd fans after his Olympic success and he was putting on some of the best boxing exhibitions in recent memory? He was humble and respectful then but didn't get respect or big fights. Floyd changed his image and became the bad Guy to sell fights and market himself. Floyd plays the bad Guy role buy isn't a bad Guy in real life he has numerous charitable efforts and people who know him agree. The Floyd haters can't separate the two.

    I mean I am a patriot whenever a british fighter had a title with exception to witter I supported them. But Floyd coming out with a statemenis like i AM A AMERICAN CITIZEN AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SHOULD GET BEHIND ME. That tells me that floyd is worried that he won't have the support he should be having.

    We do like American boxers.
    Floyd doesn't fight for americans he fights for himself.

    You guys need to knock this off, you know the score. Nationalism doesn't belong in this fight. It does in others. It sure as hell does in the Super 6 turney where I stand behind the Americans all the way. However this is about the two best in the world and everyone knows its that and nothing else. That's the selling point, it doesn't need a fabricated selling point when it has the best there is. "The old p4p#1 coming out of retirement to face the new p4p#1." Damn, Floyd needs to SELL that ****. That's like Ali coming out of his forced retirement to get his title back from Frazier.

    You mean Filipino's can't relate to his roots in poverty? They can't relate to him going away from home to earn extra money for his family? They can't relate to him being religious? Considering that the Philippines is a country that is mainly Catholic/Christian and a country where millions of Filipinos go to work abroad to earn money for their families I find that hard to believe.

    Sure very few Filipinos are as rich as him but that doesn't mean people can't relate to the kind of person he is or where he came from.

    A statement like that is a sign of admitting your opponent has more fans.

    Most Americans do support Mayweather. You could see that most of the crowd clapped when Mayweather said that.


    The ****** Floyd haters are few and far between. They just happen to be the loudest. Remember the Hatton fight, there were USA chants throughout the arena. Mayweather sells tickets and PPVs because people like him.


    There will always be haters. Hell Andre Ward is a nice humble young god fearing man and he has haters. Wtf are you gonna do? Bitches like bladerunner will never die. Floyd will have most of America's support

    Good job! people don't realize this attitude started to sell tickets for the oscar fight. He does care about legacy over money, and will do whatever it takes to increase it, like beating pac then mosley berto winner and quitting. And then Khan, because people are going to say he's duckng khan and khan can match his speed, etc.. anyway should be a good fight i see floyd really boxing for a ud 8 rounds to 4 rounds
