    there's no problem if fighters fight for money coz everyone does it even pac. but it's a problem if there is the biggest money fight out there and you still avoid it because you think the opponent is much of a threat. if you are fighting for money, why duck the biggest money fight? why outprice yourself by demanding a figure that is too impossible like $100M dollars?

    Floyd isn't criticized just for fighting for money. He's criticized because he called himself the best, better than fighters like SRR and Ali(who fought everyone), and he was the p4p number one fighter in the world but didn't and still won't fight the best opposition available to him to back up his talk. Instead, he retires or goes on vacation when it's time to make the big fights and talks more baseless crap while the current p4p number one fighter makes a lot of the fights people wanted Floyd to make and annihilates said opponents.

    And you believed them? :huh

    But there is a difference between just fighting for money, and having pride dictate your fights.

    That loser is on my ignore for a reason. Most Floyd fanboys on ESB are. You aren't bad....yet. :hey

    I've never once said ALL men who beat women are in an equal position. That's just stupid to suggest. Floyd has shown a HISTORY of it. Floyd has a horrible attitude. I';m sure you'll find a way to call me hypocritet, I care less, but if you want to over simplify the situation, like most Floyd fanboys seem to need to do out of necessity, be my guest.
    :good

    How did you know Ali did it once. If he beat her for dressing inappropriately, I'm sure he's done it for other things also

    See its okay for others to beat a woman but not Floyd according to Lance. Remember he thinks bc a person is a fan of Floyd's boxing skills means they condone him hitting a woman.

    Like I said, not all are equal. Do you honestly think so? :huh

    And you seem to be another who has trouble reading. I say those that are defending Floyd, saying he didn't do it, condone it. You want to twist what I say around, so be it. You'll have no trouble getting some idiots to believe you.

    I only blame fighters for this when it prevents big fights from happening. If your going to make millions anyway you shouldn't go over the top and be ridiculously greedy by pricing yourself out of fights that the public really want to see.

    I am not talking about Floyd... just fighting for money in general
