Seriously.........is there anybody out there who wouldn't take 10 mil? Cuz that's what Floyd would make in about every damn fight from here on out... So why did he retire again? And don't tell me because he lost he love for the sport. Who likes their job? ****, I don't like mine, but I also don't get paid 10 million dollars. God blessed him with a tallent, and instead of using it, he's just going around talking like he is, but not actually doing it, while people like me are getting their water turned off. And some of ya'll mother ****ers have the audacity to actually say that you wouldn't take 10 million dollars? If Floyd isn't scared of losing, then why woudln't he take the fight? And don't tell me because money isn't everything. He named his record label, "Philthy Rich," for God's sake. His whole persona is forged from money. Even if he didn't want the money, imagine the charitable work he could do with it. So don't give me, he was just sick of boxing because sick of my job for years, but I don't make 10 million dollars. ****....... Comment.
And I know someone is going to say some stupid **** like he's risking his life, bla bla bla. Be real. He might get beat, but it won't be the end of his life. Look at Arce, the guy gets his ass beat even when he WINS.
****.... I'll take that 10 million. I mean, I am the best fighter in the world, right? So it's not like I'm gonna lose, right? So I'm gonna take that 10 mil? RIGHT???!!!! Let's use some logic.
**** i would take on tyson for 10 mil as long as he couldnt bite and he would pay for my medical bills!
From what I've seen of you, Axe Man, you aren't interested in discussion anyway so there probably isn't any point in talking to you. It's your way and only your way and you're going to scream it from the rooftop. I suppose I'd be smarter to take the advice "Do not feed the trolls". That said, being a professional athlete is pretty different than most jobs, and I'm willing to bet that the job you don't like isn't as a professional athlete. Athletes live and die by certain things - for some it's the thrills and rushes they get, for some it's the money they make, for some it's being unbeaten/flawless. Floyd's attitude, it seems, is about being flawless. As a professional athlete any distraction (I.E. he doesn't love the sport anymore, pending divorce although Mosley didn't seem bothered) could be the tiny thing that changes him from flawless to flawed. Since his whole life is wrapped up in flawless, he can see his lack of desire as a weakness that could be exploited, and that would ruin his own perception of himself. This belief of mine comes because I believe that Floyd is actually a sad, hurt little boy inside the grownup body. I think he has a very poor self-image and he's trying to make up for it with all the bling and glamour of being an undefeated star. Since fighting again is a threat to himself, he's not going to want to do that. His ego matters more to him than money. You have the right to not like the way he thinks, that's fine. Most of us who have never been offered big bucks would gladly take 10 million to lose, but we aren't Floyd.
Every fighter retires at some point. What I would do makes no difference. I'd fight for 10K win or lose. I don't expect Floyd to do it. If you already have more money than you can spend 10 million isn't that significant to you. what can he buy with another 10 million that he can't buy today?
So, you're saying that Floyd doesn't believe he can win? Basically, if you take out all the fill in, that's what your statement comes down to. He's a grown man. Grown men don't turn down 10 million dollars. You got people in places in the world starving, that would fight anybody on the planet so that they could feed their family, and here you got the best boxer in the world, turning down 10 million dollars for a fight that he would probably win? Come on....... 10 million dollars is 10 million dollars.
****... I would take that money and spend it on my family if I really didn't need it. But ****, Floyd spends 2 million on jewelry, yet you think he has more money than he can spend in a lifetime? Be real. Grown men don't turn down 10 million dollars. That **** should be written in the Declaration of Independence. ****.... They should re-write the mother ****er right now, include that ****, dig up Thomas Jefferson and force that mother ****er to sign the **** with his bone.
To say you hate PBF, you sure do talk about him alot. You make at least 1 thread a day just to talk about him. He probably used to punk you back in high school.
Good thing you added that peice in b/c it might cost you a few million to give you a new face and set of insides after Tyson got threw with you. Then again, you could take a dive like alot of his opponents did in the early 90's...
