    Please dont confuse issues, nobody has a problem with being ambitious.

    And if he did grow up the way he proposes he grew up, nobody would give him **** for saying things like this.

    Problem is, he embelleshes the hell out of his upbringing, even according to his own family.

    no but I used to walk through deep snow, I sold drugs, most of my friend got in fights and did drugs. I come from a broken home. SO WHAT?
    Mayweather goes on like it's some kind of amazing background....IT'S NOT. :lol:
    It's shows his ignorance and what a sad and insecure little **** he is.

    for tough background look at guys like Miranda or Tyson...not spoilt crybaby Floyd.

    I agree with you for the most part.

    Look at B-Hop, the guy has been trying to seperate himself from an ubringing and youth in which he had a lot of problems (not forget, but not let it define his life either).

    Then look at Floyd, who doesnt come from a situation such as Bernard's, and you see a kid who goes on and on about it nonstop.

    Floyd wasnt even associated with this lifestyle coming into the sport. Its been him who has continually tried to convey this image, surrounding himself with Fifty who wears a bullet proof vest to a boxing match (somewhere Tupac is rolling in his grave). :-(

    If you guys want to go for the act, do so. I have said all I have to say.

    b wat are you talkin about, so your saying its wrong 4 him in an interview to reflect on the struggles he had to go through to make it where hes at, thats shows he is ignorant?
    Wat is this, thats a new 1, if a man talks about his past then he is ignorant.

    according to his own family = Jeff.

    Jazzy Jeff isn't on good terms with Floyd so that was expected. And Jeff may not be as clean as you all think him to be... it all began when Jeff got accused of stealing off Floyd's fight earnings.:bart

    He isn't reflecting, he is embellishing at best and lying at worst.

    All I know is that Jeff makes more sense than all the other Mayweathers combined.

    And I have never heard Roger or Floyd Senior talk about Floyd being from the ghetto either. Only Floyd.

    The thing with Jeff making more sense is because he's more silent. Roger and Floyd Sr. are more vocal (and have more media exposure) but that doesn't necessarily mean they're worse than Jeff. Remember we are only judging on what we see.

    There are drug dealers and goons where Floyd grew up.. if Roger and Floyd Sr. don't speak about it, that doesn't prove a thing about Floyd's supposed dishonesty.

    just don't expect these clowns to accept these truths, some folks are that ****ing naive and lap it all up.

    I take issue with the DLH stuff though.

    doggs im not saying these things couldnt b lies, but it could b the truth as well. And people here are dismissing it b.c Jeff said so. Jeff and floyd arent on good terms so his word isnt credible, to me if a dude gon reflect on what he had 2 go through to make it where he is at, I have no problem wit that. Evry1 got their own struggles, if he chooses to speak on it then so b it. DOnt see the problem with that

    Its just the rap hip hop flavor of the week to appear tough and from the ghetto. Being ghetto and having all the money is what sells these days. Why are people these days so proud of being ignorant looking ? These people aren't tough, they are just week minded and follow the trend of the day for attention !!!
