I always said Floyd did his best to take the easiest route in success if at all possible but truth is he will fight anyone anytime...He proved that in 2007......
That in no way means I am trying to say I doubted Floyd's abilities because he has them all no way to deny that...He has also fought some tough guys like Corrales and JLC but at the time those fights were necessary for him to get ahead in the game....
Like I said I am still not a fan but will admit when I am wrong and this year Floyd proved me wrong....
Fighting a guy like DLH above your weight class then another P4P fighter shows he is more then mouth if called out.....
There's nothing wrong with being a Floyd fan...quite beatin round the bush. Say it!!!! SAAAAAY IT!!!
"Hello my name is DaxxKahn...& I'm a Floyd fan."
Admitting you have a problem...is half way to solving it. ;D
Taking it one day at a time Wacko.....I think today I am just going to sit and listen to other guys stories about Floyd... :-[
Im Mayweather fan and im not ashamed to admit it i love watching fighters like Floyd brings me back to good old days of watching Pernell Whitaker.

As far as his in ring attributes I am a fan....It is just that he acts like such an ass outside the ring I can not bring myself to be a true fan...
If that makes sense?

Makes plenty of sense to me; just how I feel. I stick up for Floyd and I can't stand him outside the ring; but hey, I don't watch him for his personality, only for his skills and hoping someone will crack him good ;D

LOL my thoughts exactly
Re: I have to admit something about Mayweather.....
It's only been said 10.000 times ... outside the ring he's a jerk; inside the ring he's amazing.
Make that 10,001.
I hope Floyd schools Hatton. I hope Hatton keeps the pressure on and makes Floyd work his ass off ... and that Floyd does work his ass off ... and gives us a demonstration of pure boxing that will make the fight a classic for generations. Not because I like Floyd or dislike Hatton. Nothing personal. Just because that kind of boxing is what I love best. What Floyd can do, and what Hatton can't; what Hatton can make Floyd do with his non-stop, dangerous aggression. What Floyd will have to do, and what he will do, if he wants to beat Hatton. And of course he does, and probably of course he will.
Of course, after he dazzles us in the ring, someone will shove a microphone in Floyd's face and he'll ruin the moment.

Beautifully said bro', CC. Actually Merchant will probably help ruin the moment :laugh:

Spoken like a true addict. Admitting that you have a problem is the first step. Heh heh heh.

If that makes sense?
Perfect sense.
Pretty much...that's the way I feel. I love him in the ring. He's literally like a chess player (as cliche as that sounds) as far as working things out on the mat. He moves his men around & cuts the ring down like a science.
Outside of the ring he acts like a chump & a thug. Fans generally get attatched to a boxer & expect them to act with some decenscy & respect outside of the square circle...Floyd's a hard man to like. That being said...it's not like I want to be friends with the man...so it really shouldn't matter...but as a fan...you (or atleast I) want to be able to discuss boxing & your favorite fighters...with Floyd...you can't argue when someone calls him a piece of shit or an asshole.

Well now That you have caused a relapse and I have to start all over again at step 1
THANKS WACKO!!!
TBH I have seen Floyd away from the cameras with minimal press around and he is not a bad guy..the second questions are asked or a camera is taping it's like a switch turns or something inside the guy?............
IMO a lot may have to do with he knows he is not a draw and figure maybe the only way to change it around is have fans just despise him to the point they tune in just hoping to see him get his AZZ kicked?
