    I think he realised that even by winning 6 titles in 5 weight classes you still get criticism, therefore belts don't really mean **** in this day of boxing.

    Why do you hang on every word of a guy like Floyd? He said it. But it's nothing but smack talk.

    what he means is that the money matters more because that's what he can use for his family

    he said that in the faceoff

    There is a museum dedicated to Muhammad Ali based on his legacy.

    Yeah, he left the sport without any belt but his in and out of the ring work created that legacy.

    Interesting considering that his and his fans defence that he fought Baldomir rather than Margarito.

    "He was champion", well why does that matter if "belts collect dust"?

    All that matters to Floyd is risk/reward ratio. Baldomir was lower risk higher reward. PBF does not care about legacy. That's pretty damn obvious at this stage.

    PBF is a walking contradiction. He talks ****. Don't try break down and analyse what he says. Everything that comes out of his mouth needs to be taken with an industrial sized tub of salt.

    Floyd is a walking contradiction, practically every interview he has he practically contradicts himself. Its not even worth noting anymore.

    Floyd fought Baldomir because Arum wouldnt negotiate a fight with Oscar De La Hoya.

    The De La Hoya that Mayweather fought would've schooled the Margarito of that time who was coming off losses to Daniel Santos and Paul Williams.

    Only ******s like you were fooled by Margacheato./
