    I don't know really know what happened between the two of them and its fair to say a lot of father / son relationships are complicated not just theirs.

    I've heard both sides of the story to a degree and I'm still unclear or unwilling to throw either under the bus, but at the end of the day whatever upbringing Floyd had he is a grown man and is solely responsible for his behaviour now.

    Jones just seemed really confident, which could come a cross as arrogant.

    He never really came across as annoying and obnoxious.

    and what was that stupid ****? People claiming that he's got social problems without even knowing him, that's stupid. Claiming Tyson had personality disorder, that's stupid, because that just shows u dont even know the definiton of personality disorder. Tyson was rough and he could get pretty angry. He had his problems, but they were not related to personality disorder. If u think watching 24/7 and youtube makes u capable of determining wheather or not a guy har personality disorder, then that's stupid.

    People exaggerate Floyds problem. He's not Michael Jackson crazy. I can name 40 black athletes who behave worse than Floyd. Floyd is a saint compared to most young millionaire black males who were never taught moderation.

    And you mention twitter followers to prove someone DOESNT have a social disorder :lol:

    You said a person with mental problems would be the highest paid athlete in the world. Tyson was clearly ******ed and was just that.

    You're post was stupid. You're stupid.
    Stop adding all that stupid to this forum

    Nobody is born a douchebag. Hell, we don't know what Floyd is like in private but given his father's background, there's a good chance his childhood wasn't easy. Needless to say, having a caring father would have influenced him a lot. That goes without saying really.

    Man, ur more stupid than i thought. To prove and to make a point are two different things, but I think with ur knowledge, u wouldnt understand that, as we see.

    As for Tyson, I didnt say he had mental problems, stupido! Man I dont wanna waste my time on you, stop quoting. It's like quarreling a 9 year old.

    It funny for me how people here think they know fighters, he does what he does to sell fights, and since he was highest payed athlete in the world he is doing a good jab. Is he good guy or ******* we cant know because we only know his public act and not who he really is.

    if it wasnt for his pop, he wouldnt be a boxer...floyd used to be running all around the gym when he was growing up. floyd sr was the first, then uncle roger, and jazzy jeff. A boxers son always has and advantage over some kid just walking into the gym, however floyd still had to do the work, prove himself and have discipline which 95% of most dont

    If not for Floyd Sr. being an abusive father... Floyd Jr. would be straight.

    You dont have to say he has mental problems. We dont need your uninformed opinion to see that. Hes ******ed. And he was rich.

    I was wondering when you were gonna stop responding to my trolling

    I love the way people in the US always try to blame the parents. phsyco babble has been around for so long and most of America is in therapy.
    Guess what, the ****ers just keep getting crazier and crazier.
    Jr is an ass because he is allowed to be not because of Sr.
