Video:Full Floyd Mayweather Interview from Costas Tonight...

[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2MsxXteivM&feature=player_embedded[/ame]


I thought this is one of the best interviews from Floyd that I've ever seen. Here are some of my thoughts from what I saw here...

- Floyd is pretty harsh on his Dad.. Although some of what he said is true IMO his Dad is the main reason he is what is today and he should have at least acknowledged that.

- I found myself completely agreeing with him on the Victor Ortiz situation.. Nuff said.

- I disagree with him on the Pac 50/50 split issue.. Floyd is immensely stubborn and for someone who says he wants to give the fans what what they want to see he continues to contradict himself by throwing loopholes into the Pac negotiations. It doesn't matter what Pac is used to making in his previous fight.. what matters is what's fair and what matters even more is what's good for boxing and what the paying fans of boxing want to see; Floyd doesn't seem to get it or even care to be honest. If 50/50 isn't fair enough for Floyd then 55-45 with the higher 10% to the winner is completely fair and ultimately Floyd will make more then Pac either way.

- I'm glad Floyd finally admitted that his villainous persona is nothing more then a WWE character because even though most boxing fans already know this the general public does not.

- I agree with Floyd on what he said on how unfair it is that the NY media has villiainized Carmelo Anthony ever since Jeremy Lin broke out.. I live in BK NY and although I cheer for the Heat I think it's embarrassing how they treat a great player like Melo who has proven himself throughout his entire career carrying Syracuse to a national championship and the Denver Nuggets to the Western Conference finals. Lin has to learn how to play with Melo, not the other way around.

All around great stuff from Floyd and Costas! :happy

Yup.. Costas is a true professional.

 

Relax.. don't get all defensive. Costas now has a broader audience then any other boxing related interview where he's admitted he's playing a role.. That why I said "even though most boxing fans already know this the

does not."

No prob.. A Martinez fight is a bigger challenge for Floyd IMO.. Hopefully that happens. I have NO interest in seeing him fight Canelo.

I noticed that after but thanks for pointing that out.. He doesn't provide the full video anyway.

You're welcome :good

 

bump.. 1 more time just in case anyone missed the interview.
