    In an interview with a British paper today, Don King has said he lent 500,000 dollars to Floyd. Is Floyd broke? Anyone know if King has some options on future Floyd fights?

    If its true then Floyd is an Idiot! Floyd earns more than ALOT of businesses so I dont see why the bank wouldn't loan him ANY amount he wanted. What British paper reported this, the liklihood is its BS.

    but to answer your question...this ppv will do **** numbers. Floyd dumps GBP and signs with King.

    King and Mayweather do business and we got ourselves a fight.

    Devon Alexander vs Floyd.

    You heard it here first.

    floyd is just trying to sell the ortiz fight
    he's going for the "my body is breaking down and i'm broke " angle

    Maybe he just needed some toilet paper. Floyd's probably got more money than that, lost in the couch cushions.

    Maybe he means that Floyd guarantees him a win over Ortiz and that he should bet 500,000 and if he loses he will give him the money back?

    In Don King's own words, when asked how much he is worth,
    "If you can count it, then you ain't got it"

    So, as you see, Don King ain't loaned Floyd **** !!!
