    Just as what he said, how many ESB fans here would
    believe his famous remarks?

    How is Floyd a role model for anyone? He's a fighter who doesn't fight, and a materialistic, loud mouthed, excuse making racist to boot. No class whatsoever. In my opinion, apart from his physical talents, there's absolutely nothing to admire about the guy.

    If he's a "role model", he's not a good one.

    Anyway, I agree with Charles Barkley that athletes should not really be role models.

    Why in the hell would anyone on Earth look to boxers as role-models?

    he's a role model.

    He's focused in training, works harder than almost anyone, is dedicated to being the best that he can be, stays in shape 365 days a year, and has great defense.
