    I reckon Floyd is even in the little league compared to Naseem Hamed money wise, Hamed was everywhere for Addidas and really no one compares to Tysson for commercial success.

    No one knows who Floyd is, people still know the name Tyson, mention Mayweather and people say "who" hes only ever been viable as a pay per view event when the opponent was the attraction, Gatti was his first pay per view and that was because of Gatti.

    Advertisers arent going to pay money for a personality that isnt known and you have to have a personality to start with, when he stops acting like a horrible little cuunt people might give a shiit, the only reason he wants to comeback now is because Manny has got a little more well known and he thinks he can get a bit of fame rubbing off on to him, his attempt to win Hattons fans didnt work

    I forgot to mention Naseem Hamed, you're right. And also, didn't Hamed invest in oil as well? So it’s a bit ridiculous to even call himself "Money".
    Imagine if he was a bit more charismatic. We would probably see him in Gatorade ads, Nike, XBox360, Play Station, Nintendo, etc. etc. It would totally benefit him.

    I thought he was endorsed by Grant boxing gloves at one point?
