    Black fighters always seem to **** their money away somehow. They all end up doing degrading **** to make a fast buck.

    does not taking the legacy defining fights guarantee that you won't go broke after your career is done.

    Pac vs. may is bigger now than when 1st suggested last year. Whatever May has done has worked to make this a bigger fight. If it continues at this rate he'll be making twice the original offer. Exactly what he is doing is working to issure a bigger payday than before. May realizes his carrer is almost over and he has few paydays left, he wants to capitalize on those days.

    you forgot to add 100 years from now Hearns will be known as a God Of War and Floyd will be know as a coward.

    What people also need to keep in mind is if Floyd dominates like usual there won't be a rematch. So a little racist rant won't hurt nobody and promoting. Manny will probably thank Floyd for being racist after he sees his check.

    Your statement is true to me, however ironically after decades have pasted and fighters pass away people will forget the attitude of fighters and focus on records. PBf will still be an instant HOF based on record. He will still be glorfied for his wins and boxing skill despite not always pleasing the fans w/ the most dangerous fights. True fans like us will remember, but not to most.

    It's also kinda my point. PBF doesn't care about who we remember him, he cares about money.

    You can't enjoy the good **** people think of you as once you're dead, but you can enjoy all the money you make while you're live.

    That guy also fought everybody out there, including a boatload of hall of famers and ATG's. Floyd shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as him.

    WOW, good bet on the ward fight. That was the one where ward was an underdog fighting kesseler. Must of paid bak close to half a million. Good bet.

    the fighting for money and not legacy argument is b.s. it is simply a simple minded excuse to not face the best oposition available. because i am absolutely positive that he would also get a very large check for the legacy fights.

    You are slow, tasco. I brought up Robinson as an example of someone who did it as a business for checks but still has one of the best resumes.

    grasping at everything to justify stupidity.

    if Floyd turns out to be more of a *** as you are, will you still have this man crush on him?

    Every fighter fights for checks. Some care about legacy too. Floyd doesn't take risks.
