    I am normally pretty hard on Floyd but he came off much better than he has at other times. Good interview, he was respectful and still managed to defend his own image when necessary. He sounds a lot better when he gets comfortable and doesn't get forceful with his points. The only thing i didn't like about the interview is how often he claimed that he doesn't care what people think, of course he does, everybody does, especially Floyd Mayweather, and it isn't something he needs to deny.

    Otherwise a very good interview and a much more likable version of Floyd Mayweather. Thanks for the link.

    No Prob:good. I agree he came off very sincere especially at the end. But, he did have a few cliche moments:lol:

    i noticed on that interview that he talks about how much viewers and money he generated in his last two fights but what he doesn't say is the fact of who he had faced in hatton and oscar. what i'm trying to say is that oscar could face the biggset loser in boxing and still generate lots of viewers & money but if you look at when floyd face baldomir & judah i don't believe they were high at all so he must understand that it wasn't him that generated the viewers and money. maybe now he could say what he generates because of what he has accomplish with those fights and now he could be the draw man but same goes for pacquiao. now which fight would generate more floyd vs marquez or pacquiao vs cotto?

    "If I was a White fighter, how big would I be today???"

    "I'm all about satisfying me, I don't care what others think. A critics job is to criticize, let them criticize."

    "I'll pay Marquez to step aside and me and Pac can fight Sept 19 and the winner fight Marquez, which will be me"

    Also, a lot of stuff you heard from other interviews. Say's Arum started rumor of fight not selling well and that fight so very well the 1st week ($5 million gate)

    He gives big props to Arturo Gatti and say's he had the biggest heart of any fighter he ever fought. Also, gives huge props to the skills Felix Trinidad and Roberto Duran.

    Good interview, he was very sincere over the last 8 mins or so.

    I'm tired of these interviewERS! they ask him the same damn questions everytime.... any interview after pacman beat hatton has literally been the same questions over and over... someone needs to get a bit more creative
