    I think he should gloat a little bit but probably shouldn't talk about his 9 figures so much. We know you rich but that's not the most important thing, then again media need to ask better questions
     
  2. True but people are mostly butt hurt because he does it without a diploma. Plain and simple nobody gives ****** Buffet **** when he buys a business and fires a whole ****in town,but Floyd talking **** ...whoa hold the presses!!!!

    And this is the biggest problem that most people have with Floyd. He deserves to be rich, but he loses respect when he flaunts his money. The regular working class people all around the world were rooting for Manny.

    We always hear about the 1% how the 1% are rich and everyone else is poor. That's nothing compared to Floyd. Floyd is the 0.00000001% and not only that he flaunts it. It's messed up.

    He has to find some security in his riches, since he can't really base his self-esteem on his boxing record without lying to himself.

    He's not bragging right now if you're paying attention. He is coming off very good in how he has spoken in this press conference.

    They not helping by asking him about the money though, if you ask Floyd about Money he'll talk for days

    No one asked him about $ outside of the one guy asking if the check was really $100 mil.

    You right about that. Don't get me started on the sports media. They feed right into it, asking him about money. Jim Gray's post fight interview was horrendous.

    What sucks is that this event had a chance to change all that, and it just didn't deliver. It came CLOSE though, this wasn't a total failure, it just came up short from what it could have been.

    And lets be honest, most of us didn't think this would ever happen, and it was definetly a surreal experience just actually seeing them both in the same ring.
