    Call me a pessimist, but this half-assed nice guy thing from Floyd won't last. Floyd will be back in jail one day. It happened with his father, and his uncle (and probably still will) and Floyd still like to live that "gangsta" lifestyle. All signs point to things not ending well for Floyd.

    Floyd does not live a "gangsta" lifestyle. He is an entertainer...he is selling an IMAGE. And while that image is flashy and excessive...it's hardly gangsta. And guess what...he sells it so well that he is the highest paid athlete in sports and has people such as yourself discussing his life. People need to realize that for better or worse...sports is a business. Don't hate on Floyd for realizing that and capitalizing on it better than any other athlete.

    So he along with his father and uncle haven't been in and out of prison their entire lives? Floyd makes 40 million per fight and still can't stay out of prison. The guy frequents strip clubs on a regular basis and throws money around...even when a camera isn't on him...I know you want to think he's just "selling an image"...but Floyd isn't that clever unless he's in a boxing ring. Swing and a miss.

    Floyd Sr is the only one who's been to prison. Jr and Roger never been to prison. They been to jail. But not prison. There is a huge fucking difference between prison and jail. Totally different ball game

    If you want to just make shit up...i guess there is no need for a discussion. His father served time a long time ago and Floyd has done one stint just recently. "Floyd isn't that clever"?! The guy makes more money than any athlete in the world and has you steamed cause he goes to strip clubs all the time......you are absolutely right.....he sounds like an idiot

    I hope you eventually realize that it's exactly people like you that have Floyd laughing himself all the way to the bank.
