Floyd called up beofre the Nevada Atheletic Commission

[Beanflicker]

Makes sense to me. Mayweather owns the gym and he's having guys spar nonstop until someone quits or gets knocked out, so he is facilitating a very dangerous and reckless activity. Not what you want to see from someone you're about to hand a promoter's license to.

Floyd is great in the ring but outside the ring he is a dumb thug and will eventually blow his fortune and/or end up back in jail.

All of this is shit.... Floyd made some reckless statements about the Commission leading up to the second Maidana fight. Some really reckless statements and spurious accusations about he Commission. I knew IT was coming...

I'm sure it will be easy for Floyd to blow this one off with the board and boil it down to nothing more than promotional dress up for the show but I'm glad they are calling him in. I see a number of people saying they think Floyd will end up broke and busted in the end. At first I laughed off that idea. Floyd will always be known as a great boxer but he is going to lose some of the limelight post retirement. I'm sure he will want or expect everything he does post boxing to be just as successful as when he was in the ring but he will be facing a different kind of opposition.

If Floyd does not get the attention and or success he expects, you guys could very well be right. I don't wish jail or being broke on anyone.

I don't hate Floyd, but some of the shit he does sucks ass. Fuck the little prick when he is wrong!

I didn't watch much of the all access stuff for either Maidana fight, but if that sparring stuff is true then it's fair enough they'd want to talk with him about it. Other people smoking pot around an athlete of any sort, or the athlete themselves doing it, is a non issue and shouldn't even be humored imo. From what I gather the Nevada commission is the most reputable of any in North America, but they obviously still bow to certain interests when it comes down to revenues. If Floyd will have to hand over a decent % to them as a promoter, I'm sure they will be pretty lenient regardless of what he was doing.

This happens all over. I know for a fact he gets this practice from his childhood gym. What is the NAC going to police training now when they can't even put on a decent testing program? This is a dog and pony show because Floyd bad mouthed them. If they want to make rules about training and watch everyone, fine. But going after Floyd because he insulted them is typical boxing horseshit. Finding a lick of truth in this sport is near impossible.

Why would Showtime show them smoking pot? Isn't it illegal in Nevada?

Why would it matter, it wasn't boxers smoking pot. It was pretty f'n obvious Floyd has never done it and those girls smoking around him was obviously new too(for cameras) because he didn't even know where to get papers haha

Every gas station, liquor store, convenience store in America has them but Floyd didn't know. Those people aren't smoking regularly.

Showtime just aired a crime. May not be as detrimental as, lets say, a drive by shooting- but it was illegal none the less.

" may not be "? Every reason marijuana is illegal is Bullshit. It was lies and propaganda. It doesn't effect me either way if it were to stay illegal but it's nonsense. It's on the ballot in Florida now and the police are on the tv spouting about the Drinking and driving numbers as if they are connected. If anything crime will drop with legalization. Look at the countries that have decriminalized drugs, the crime rates here are staggeringly higher in USA than there. If people want to waste their lives on their couches they should be allowed.

Go back and watch the propaganda that made it illegal, it's disgusting. Marijuana will make black men rape your white women etcetera. When something is made illegal based on disgusting racist lies it should be addressed in an honest fashion not more propaganda.

Isn't medical herb legal in Nevada Medical qualifications are along the lines of arguing a "p4p" list now and its merit. Floyd is on THE highest pedestal there is and he does get a bit f'tard during the 24-7, all access series with believing its a reality show without ramifications, especially being handed a promotion license etc. Its very much a carnival act by commission but Floyd demands the big tent to begin with. Nothing will come of it and Mayweather actually has the chance to rise above and play the good guy-diplomat

I'm not referring it to as detrimental physical wise, or even social wise. In fact, I have no feelings either way on weed on that score and that's not how I meant what I said.

Alls I'm saying is that you cant commit a crime, any crime, for it to be recorded on television and expect everything to be ok.

Let's just say it wasn't marijuana. Let's just say the cameras caught him pissing in a public place, or running multiple red-lights. They are crimes too, not as detrimental as murder... but crimes none the less.

Yeah NSAC is a fucking joke for sure, but I think they have a point because what he was putting on was more like exhibitions instead of training and to go unlimited until someone quits or gets knocked out is pretty barbaric, I know it's common place in boxing gyms to do crazy shit like that but it's not good to show it.

It shows you how stupid Floyd is as a person because he is the exec producer of those fucking All Access 24-7 shows so he gets to say what goes into them and what doesn't, it's not like they filmed it and used it against his wishes, so he fucked himself by being stupid.

I think it's more about the image Floyd is projecting.
Who knows, maybe they will try to discipline him or at least convince him to think before he acts or starts talking.
The Commission has been good to Floyd over the years so if Floyd thinks he is now bigger than the Commission maybe they want set him straight.
I'm not a big fan of Floyd's but I hope he doesn't self destruct.

[Dia bando]

I have seen the sparring session, to me there were two boxers in that ring trying to impress
Floyd, and in all honest a lot of fighters would have done the same thing.
The chance to show how tough and fit and what skills they have, in front of the P4P best boxer
out there, hell the amount of tough sparring I have seen in gyms.
Yes Floyd will take some stick, but what can the Commission do.?
