    then why he's locked up . They said celebrities do get
    special privileges like 23 hrs/day protection. Correct me
    If im wrong but pac never gets that kind of special treatment.
    No hate on this matter.

    What does him being in jail have anything to do with his earning power? In fact, that actually helps sell his villain character.

    Definitely. He took a big gamble leaving his promoter, especially considering his lack of fanbase at the time and fighting style. Turns out it was Top Rank undervaluing him.

    He did everything on his own so it's hard to knock his hustle.

    Only the ignorant believe that money and fame guarantee you protection in cases of criminal matters. They sure can help, but retaining a top lawyer does not ensure you get away with anything. Especially when your social persona is such as floyd's seems to be.
