My impression is that he wants to change his image, which is a good idea with retirement approaching. He wants to transition from the trash talking, sometimes foul mouthed boxer to the respected, trustworthy, onetime boxer businessman.
I hope the whole thing works out for him, and along the way I'm hoping he can lead the way back to less foulmouthed trash talking.
I know the boxers themselves aren't totally to blame, not with reporters, camera crews, HBO, SHOETIME, ESPN, a multitude of boxing bloggers and App reporters ready and willing to repeat everything they hear.
If Floyd could point some of the younger boxers in the right direction, my respect for him would grow by leaps and bounds. I might start calling him Mr Mayweather instead of Floyd.
What do you think Floyd is doing? Tell me what you think. Maybe you think I'm full of BS, I've been told that before.
