    Why do people expect a level-headed, non-biased discussion with Floyd? You talk to Floyd, you get Floyd. You can't teach an old dog new tricks.

    Cry me a river, why does FMJ have to give credit to AJ. Get a life, why make a big fuzz if you know how he is. Floyd has given credit to other fighters even before fighting them, a good example is MP.

    And for all you AJ wagoners out there, get this in your head AJ will never make as much money as FMJ if he doesn't win the US PPV market.

    The only people who believe Klitschko outboxed Joshua are the ones who seem to have selective amnesia about round 11!

    They care about it to a certain extent.. They don't care about it enough to actively go against everyone who comes close to passing or catching up to it.. It would be pointless and exhausting.. He got his money, legacy, and his health after leaving the sport.. He good...

    C'mon, that fight proved much more than Aj being a puncher. His punching power wasn't one of top 3 attributes Aj PROVED he possessed during that fight. I'm refusing to accept that's all you got out of that night. The 18 previous fights should had already proved to you and every single fan he's one of the top punchers in the sport.

    Get a hold of yourself, the ledge is getting way too close

    Yes obviously there was more. He showed he has heart and a good chin. These are more mental attributes than physical skills and ability.

    If there is anything else that I missed, I'm open to hear of it!

    Not to defend Floyd because at times he does come off childish, but he's a very competitive person in nature, something that's very common with the greatest of athletes.

    Even Kellerman was alluding to it during the Crawford fight when talking about Bud's competitive nature. Floyd's much worse than that, he has an ego that's arguably comparable to guys like Michael Jordan, and for these type of elite level stars, almost everything is a competition to them.

    That's who he is, and while that standoffish type of attitude rubs a lot of people the wrong way, it's also what made him such a great fighter.

    Why are people even concerned with what Mayweather says anymore? He is so yesterday.

    Aw man, I was high when I read this and burst out laughing. LMFAO..

    Maybe Floyd is a master troll, maybe he knows things that he doesn't want us to know. Even with the **** about him not reading, it happened literally before one of his fights with Maidana, a fight in which everyone thought would be a flop.. it garnered an absurd amount of attention to help him sell the fight, even had the UFC's biggest star at the time talking about it.

    Honestly, I don't know whether Floyd's an idiot or a genius.

    All I can say is that despite all the dumb **** Floyd has done in the past, a man isn't that successful by being stupid.
