Mayweather booed backstage after Maidana 2!!!
Well, word on the street that no Vegas, Golden Boy or Haymon operatives would dare to utter was the fact that backstage after the Mayweather/Maidana 2 fight, Floyd was heckled, booed and jeered by fans waiting to give him a piece of their mind.
Said that when Mayweather was leaving the arena and also the moments leading him from the dressing room to the post fight interviews, he was heckled out of this world- with fans even throwing cups and beer at him.
It was so bad that he had to bring his daughter close to him and have more than the average amount of security personnel around him.
People felt the fight was a let down, and his performance sucked. Yup. lololol...
It was so bad that people were throwing their TMT paraphernalia to the ground in front of him, spitting and stomping on it in front of him.

YKs word is evidence enough. It's a shame the fans threw things with Floyd's daughter nearby.

Were they wearing togas? Says a lot about the mind set or lack thereof that when a guy shuts another out that he gets booed. These same neanderthals are also the same people that have dared him for years to get in a fight. When he does, the bar is raised so high for him that even when he wins comfortably he's criticized for it. Like telling Jordan he was short and late on some of his jump shots or knocking Barry Sanders for making that second cut a little to early. To make matters worse they serve beer to this cavemen.
Please.

Like Ward, Floyd fights suck. And as he gets older, his fights are less and less exciting. He is the best, but sometimes that is a curse.
Re: Mayweather booed backstage after Maidana 2!!!
There is a reason why wrasslin', while seen as fake, got more ratings.... because it was a show. It produced drama.
Take for example Ward/Gatti- both mid-card guys, but produced a show out of this world. Both would never have beaten the top guys in their division even at their own prime, but we remember their fights....
Ward and Gatti have been in similar FOTY and FOTY candidates before they met- which included Robinson/Gatti on the one hand and Ward/Agustus on the other.
Sometimes people just want to be entertained- and you can't fault them for that when the part of the focus for the sport is to entertain.
Never forget- while they fight for the money, it is the fans that put up that money. From promoters, to investors, to the fans in the seats at the arenas and those that pay PPV money and bet.

I guess it was normal post fight hooligans...
But Thunderdome Boxing was there and he gives his account....

I can't believe you are half the moron you pretend to be. So now you champion those that only appreciate blood? Those that would throw cups of beer with a little girl present? Congratulations you have devolved from idiot to piece of shit, have fun with your hooligans dirtbag
It's not just me, but the boxing writers of America seem to think so as well. Boxing is not a bitch made sport. If you want a bitch made sport, go play table tennis or badminton.

Not one of them had a camera phone... Odd.

What did you do before camera phones and 24 hour media?
Not every moment is caught on camera phone dude... a lot of people don't have time for that shit.

If a hundred people were throwing beer at Mayweather and an angry mob had formed, so much so that Floyd had extra security... You know someone would have filmed at least a few seconds of it.

Dumbass.
Not really. There was a fight with gunshots after Mayweather/Maidana 1 as well and no one caught a picture or a camera shot of the activity. This was slightly before the post fight presser.
Re: Mayweather booed backstage after Maidana 2!!!
If I hear gun shots, the last thing I'm doing is hanging about to film... Especially not when the people involved are nobodies... Mayweather is hated and in the spotlight, that's why HE would be filmed. Can you even name the people in this fight? Apples and oranges.
Floyd Mayweather getting heckled and pelted isn't exactly life threatening... Plenty of time to film a clip. If you wanted to heckle him, surely you'd want to embaress him infront of a larger audience by gaving footage to put online - worldstar videos with nothing of notability in them get filmed and shares enough ???
You'd think Mayweather being the hated star that he is would be filmed?
Re: Mayweather booed backstage after Maidana 2!!!
I have the film but I'm waiting for TMZ to cough up the big bucks.

Perhaps he snuck out... perhaps no paparazzi was around then? Perhaps it is so mundane and routine for him to get heckled after most fights that people don't bother to film anymore?!?
Re: Mayweather booed backstage after Maidana 2!!!
Lots of crap can be around people with a bad boy rep. So let's add money to the equation. Then pile on evil things like vindiction. Sleeping with someone's wife. Paying people to be disruptive wouldn't be mind blowing. I pity floyd when he has to be a father. It ain't exactly a perfect situation for raising a child. I wouldn't expect he'll be bringing his kid to this things in the future.
Re: Mayweather booed backstage after Maidana 2!!!
I mean, let's not kid ourselves here... hecklers outside of any sport arena, from football to basketball, isn't a new thing.
In professional sports, it happens. Shit, boxing had full fledged riots and fights in the parking lot after fights.
You can't get every single thing on camera, especially if people don't feel it is camera worthy.
Re: Mayweather booed backstage after Maidana 2!!!
What does it really mean if some did do this?
It means they were a bunch of drunks that when sober dont know the difference between a faint and a feint.
It means they probably put their rent cheque on Maidana.
It means they probably think fighting off the back foot is running.
These same people probably booed when the puck was iced at a hockey game or when the opposing team went off side.
Part of that IQ of 30 but need 31 to bark crowd.
