Jim Lampley of all people,rips Floyd a new one over abuse!

[Beanflicker]

He's angry that Floyd said the NFL overreacted in a case where a woman beater was cut from the team and suspended indefinitely. As a guy who was charged with beating a woman himself, would he have been OK with losing his HBO gig and being blackballed from the business? If he was fired, would he have not felt that HBO overreacted? Him, Floyd and Ray Rice are in the same boat.

Also, he says that Floyd pushes the boundaries of good taste to the point where most people wash their hands of him and want nothing to do with his fights... yet Floyd is the highest grosser in the history of boxing. The people he's putting off are obviously not the ones shelling out money for PPV and tickets.

It's funny that Floyd would say anything about the NFL and their handling of any matter when the NFL is the reason he was able to get the money from Showtime he wanted.

Floyd got his contract based on SuperBowl money... Showtime is a part of CBS.

Floyd has also been slamming the Nevada State Athletic commission as well, particularly with the events leading up to Maidana 2.

Floyd is biting the hands that fed him. But, what do we expect when we see what he done to DeLahoya with Schaeffer and Haymon.

Floyd's comments about the NFL situation were quite blizzard, he didn't say anything was wrong, just that other things were worse. It was not like he was speaking out against domestic violence, in a strange way he was minimizing it. That could have been crafted for ppv sales. I agree with what Lampley says to a point unless p4p is right when he says Lampley has domestic abuse in his past which continues the absurdity of the whole matter.
