    As much as he is an outstanding boxer there has been times during his career where his out the rings antics have irritated me, but I've always been an admirer of his boxing.

    During the media tour so far he has been very respectful of JMM, professional and not fooled around.

    When he last fought Hatton - despite all the shenanigans beforehand - I liked the fact he came out all business like. No flashy robe, no gladiatorial entrance (see Gatti fight) he came out and did the job.

    So far I have been impressed with his attitude. He knows he doesn't need to do much selling for this fight. Yes the weight issues are crazy but it's a mega-fight, no getting away from it. As much as I'm a fan of Dinamita I think Floyd will and will want to put on one helluva display.

    If we get Judah v TBA and Diaz v Guzman plus a couple of young guns what a great night it will be.

    Bring on July 18th.

    But the truth is he is annoying most of the time.

    Arguably yes. There's been no need for it in the past. Here's hoping for the rest of his career it's professionalism all the way.

    The broke and losers will definitely hate to see a fighter claim he fights for cheques, because these nobodies believe that fighters fight for "gladiator" status, praises from nobodies on forums doesn't pay the bills. :deal

    Yes Floyd fights for money, Pacquiao fights for money too.

    Dont see what the problem is to be honest he's in a ****ing dangerous sport. I dont care what nobody says (even Froch and I love him) NOBODY FIGHTS FOR ANYTHING BUT MONEY. Being called the best is superb an all but if it isn't putting food on the table for the kids, who gives a flying ****. Give Mayweather his props, he comes out and says exactly what he's doing and why he's doing it.

    Let's hope Floyd keeps up the respectful attitude towards JMM.

    Yes I am. As I said his attitude in this promo tour towards JMM and the fight has been professional. The Pac talk is a side issue which I'm not on about.

    I really think we're gonna see a special performance from Floyd. Again, I'm a huge JMM fan and fair play to him for taking the fight and if he won it'd rank up there with the greatest victories of all time but I can't see it happening.
