    Not surprising. He's too narcissistic to be a promoter. He's mostly just a promoter to keep his name out there

    You mean being promoted by a ego maniac who always wants the spotlight wasn’t a great career choice

    Yup. Floyd will probably take another circus act fight in a year or two.

    Just bought himself a 18 mil watch but he doesn’t pay some of his fighters on time according to them.

    Lots of good points raised in this thread. Another one is that Floyd simply doesn't have the mentality to be a good promoter.

    As a fighter, it's great to trash-talk your opponents and build up a fight that way. As a promoter, one needs to establish working relationships with other promoters to make decent fights for your guys. Floyd was a master of the former, but he's not at all interested in the latter; in fact he seems to fall out with just about everyone he comes across.

    Would so not be surprised. Floyd isn't a smart guy.

    You sure? Do you think his exciting style led to those paydays?
