Floyd marches to his own music. And that's probably the reason his rep has marched right off a cliff as of late. I gotta believe if he had anyone in his ear with half a brain he wouldn't be melting down right infront of our eyes.
He could be the palest man to walk the earth, he could be the darkest man to walk the earth. But he's the best boxer to walk the earth. "***** ******" makes $20million+ per fight and secures his familys future. "***** ******" has the sickest boxing skills on the planet.
Well, it seems like there's a consensual that Haymon, Mayweather and Ellerbe in a three way team get things done. Haymon and Ellerbe are more dominant manager types but Floyd likes to keep himself, rigidly, between them. Positioning himself the way he does has made him a LOT of money, can't argue with that.
Mayweather Jr says he has a public persona. From personal interviews of those that know him interminably his persona and person are different people. His public actions however tell a different story. If his actions are an elaborate scheme to drum up public controversy to sell tickets then he should have an excellent career in Hollywood. Public records show us that he has his real estate under a trust, but from his antics about his own children and ex he is just another selfish (deadbeat, although he has money) dad.
