I'm not bitter and I'm certainly not jealous (don't get me wrong I wouldn't mind being a few quid behind him though ;)) and before I saw the 24/7 programme I wasn't bothered either way. I just said I thought he was a tosser - and I stand by that.
Oscar please knock him the fuck out :)
JT, pointing out that the man acts like a foul mouthed thug in front of his own children doesn't mean anyone is jealous. If your excuse is that he only does that to sell the fight...well i guess you are trying to say that for $$$ and fame you can act like a jerk in front of your own children. I don't think Floyd is a horrible human being and a horrible father (though by the way he acts on 24/7 he is far from a model father). I actually could care less what kind of a person or dad he really is. But for him and his fans to say this is ALL an act to sell a fight is complete bs.
Watching the show now and that throwing money around act was immature.
Then, he treated his sparring like crap.
LOL
Yeah he beat the hell out of that dude.Quote:

I just hope these guys put on a good fight. Boxing needs it. In my mind Floyd should win this fight easy.
Flashing cash like that can send the wrong signals IMO.
JMO.
Yup, Floyd is a tosser. I too hope he gets his on Saturday night. I just think the lil brat will win tho.
Its all hype. He will hug ODLH after the fight and thank him for putting 6 mil in his register. If he doesn't then he is a true wanker.Quote:

What I like about him is when he goes to a public press conference he gives people autographs who want them and shakes hands with everyone. Seems like a nice guy. Now compare that to Evander Holyfield. I have seen Evander at public places and woman and kids are pushing papers toward him to autograph and he looks up in the air and all around just not to acknowledge them. Why? I am not sure. He has done that since 1989 or so.. The guy is not a nice guy really. Then you get guys like Marvin Hagler or Tommy Hearns who are always willing to sign autographs. I saw onetime some lady reach down some staircase area to get Tommy to sign a magazine and she was falling or slipping, and he caught her and pulled her up gently and went to where she was and signed the magazine smiling. That is why I always liked Tommy. It means alot how you treat the fans. Another great two guys are Bobby Chacon and Paul Banke. Sugar Ray Leonard was not that great. He went to the Hall of Fame dinner and went through the back at the awards so he wouldn't have to deal with the crowd. Ray Leonard like Evander is another guy who thinks he is too big for autographs. But Tommy and Marvin are great. Roberto probably is a nice guy also I just never met him. But not Ray. Hey I rambled off the subject again.
