    When asked about his legacy, he said he doesn't care about being TBE. He wants to be known as the best business man ever.
    When they cut from commercial break they showed a press conference where Floyd says it's not about the money it's all about legacy.
    :patsch

    Of course there was a long confusing contradictory explanation for why he doesn't have to fight Manny. None of which was boxing related. He seemed to get agitated when the lady pressed him on the issue. He sat forward in his chair and his left knee was shaking like crazy.

    Anyone else see this interview? I'm watching it now.

    Wait 10 years from now when he's flat broke and borrowing money from Tyson.

    i've never seen a guy contradict himself as much as floyd does. i've said it before...i'll say it again....he needs a good PR person to get him through these interviews. he's not very bright.

    I have no doubt that he had a huge nightmare that he got knocked out by Manny and has been refusing to go near that fight ever since.

    If they fought 5 years ago Manny would have knocked Floyd out but now Floyd would handle him with ease, it's kind of like the Tyson-Foreman problem that happened 25 years ago.

    Based on common sense alone, it's not hard to conclude that Floyd might
    be avoiding Pac for whatever reason.

    In regards to Pac koing or beating Floyd, that only happens in dreamland.

    you mean over hand left?

    do u realize how much pac struggles with slick boxers? he's not even faced one single slick boxer. he's faced guys trying to emulate slick boxers and he looked super ordinary against them. pac is shorter than floyd....and slower. he'll never land that over hand left....or left hook as u call it.

    pac was the one that came with outrageous demands...10 mil per pound stipulation. floyd countered with testing...pac made every excuse in the book.

    floyd offered pac 40 mil to fight him. that's double the most he's made in his career.

    both ariza and roach have admitted the reason the fight hasn't happened is because of pac/arum.

    Problem is when Floyd retires he won't be able to make any more money like Tyson can just for being Tyson. He won't pull a Foreman either...

    Floyd Mayweather trying to present himself as an articulate speaker to almost too excruciating to bear. It's horrid to listen to. The presentation in his speech is like it's forced out rather than ebbing and flowing with any sort of fluidity.

    Mike Tyson was a much more verbose and succinct orator than Floyd.
