    I might pay to see Floyd in a TV special talking boxing but I won't pay a dime to see him fight at this stage.

    I agree.
    I think he is taking the sheen of his legacy doing these fights but I think he's doing it for the money.
    I would pee my pants if he got sparked out by accident. the Floyd fans would go into meltdown on here.

    Floyd is now just happy to be an expensive party entertainer for elite oligarchs who are richer than himself.

    You'd pay to see the man speak?

    How gay is you?

    Ain't nothing gay about that, The man was a great fighter (one of the greatest) and a billionare to boot. Successful people get paid all the time to speak. He might say something that I are someone else could use in thier pursuit of a better life.

    He's nowhere near a billionaire.
    I had this conversation with Olu and I had to clown him.
    Most sources average at $500 million and I guarantee you most of that has been spunked up a wall.
    Floyd wouldn't be doing these fights if he'd managed his money better.

    Nothing from Floyd's mouth would be useful in regards to anything. Not even boxing. He's just not eloquent enough and can barely formulate complete sentences.

    The only person in boxing worth paying for to speak for boxing insight would be JMM.

    That's your opinion, however any man that can come from nothing and turn it into a billion dollars has a lot of useful information if you are wise enough to pick up on it. JMM is cool and I would listen to him speak also but he hasn't reached the heights that Mayweather has.

    Yeah, you right about that, I guess it depends on what sources one wants to go with.

    Doesn't matter. The purpose of a paid talk is to learn. Floyd has said nothing illuminating ever in any interview.

    For the record, I wouldn't pay to hear Pacquiao speak either because he's dumb like Floyd although better spoken. Both brilliant in the ring, but would bring nothing to the table in a talk.

    JMM would bring incredible insight to the fight game regarding strategy.

    I think the distinction is between money generated v net money received.
    I reckon Floyds generated over a billion in revenue and netted just under half of that.
    I think that would be a reasonable assessment.

    Learning is subjective, if you feel that you can't lean anything from Floyd speaking then that's on you. Others might find what he has to say rewarding.

    If he keeps doing it one of these Internet bums might land a lucky shot.
