I genuinely believe floyd is in the closet. The way he goes through the motions with his prossies, but literally used to hang off of 50 cents every word.

Any man that feels he has to pay to be seen with women, well, it's suspect. I mean at least Tyson was a genuine sex case, floyd does it to keep an appearance.

Remember Ricky Hatton? When Floyd was trying to show off his bling, and Ricky was like; "I don't give a fornicate". :lol:

I'd probably be the same. So what? You got a ring on. :lol:

i'd just think what an idiot to waste that sort of money on a ring on necklace ,just because he paid millions doesn't mean it's worth that ,if he was wise he'd buy a rembrandt or a picasso and leave it in a safe for 20 years .

He will no doubt spunk up his money after he retires via hangers on and ludicrous schemes trying to chase the thrill he got in the squared ring. I'd love it like Keegan at Fergie's funeral if he was forced to make a comeback and due to it being less on his cynical matchmaking terms he forfeited his beloved '0'. How I wished Castillo had got the nod all those years ago. He might have faced some proper challenges then.

TBE?

Is it an acronym because he struggles to read the actual words?

In answer to the original question I`d say "Depends on whether I can bum them or not"

With that dodgy tash slash goatee combo he has going he does look like he could be batting for the other side.

If I had millions like him then why not spend it however you like? He has earned it the hard way. If he wants paid fanny on tap then let him get on with it. Mayweatehr is a prize tool in many ways, but at least he does it in a better way than some numptie like Broner.

When they had the press conference in Manchester he was up in the town hall window counting his money to all the fans, I felt embarrassed for him. He also wore a United shirt too. He was trying really hard.

I am sure that I recently heard or read something about Floyd and his money, whereby if he spent a million dollars a month for the rest of his life it still wouldn't run out. It mentioned the way his money has been invested. I am sure I didn't dream it !

That culture is spreading over here fast. Westfield Shopping centre in Stratford, near the olympic stadium came to a standstill because of the amount of 'yoots' that descended upon the place to catch a glimpse of their role model when she visited recently...

That role model? Kim effing Kardashian!

The male hangers on are even more embarrassing although they have some genuine nuggets of wisdom before fights

One is "yeah baby" and i cant remember what fight it was but another i heard is "thats right baby"

However, he is doing it as part of creating a brand.

And no one can argue it is not working, he is the highest paid sportsman in the world.

It doesn't impress sensible adults, but I bet it sure as hell impresses teenagers who purchase the PPV :TU:
It doesn't fvcking impress me, what kind of man wants to hang around with a bunch of women? And why would he pay them? There's definitely girls around who would happily hang around him for nothing, just for the fame.

Questionable in a gay or straight kind of way.

Not sure about hangers on just being boxing-happens to all rich sports stars in all sports, and generally all celebs. Boxing is a lonely life, boxers do have to make a lot of sacrifices and as it isnt a team sport they dont build up team mates or colleagues like in other walks of life Many will have been top amateurs so again will not have been doing the other things that teenagers do.

None of us know what FM is really like behind closed doors, or what we would do in his shoes. It is easy to judge him but from all accounts he has had a tough life and so it is easy to see how he makes up for it now with all the money he has.

Sounds like his financial advisor might have been spinning him a load of shite! :lol:

Happened to plenty of sportsmen, who shall we say, lack a little bit of financial acumen, over the years. 'Yeah crack on fella, spend away, you can afford it' is the chat from the FA.
Fast forward to when the money stops coming in and suddenly the sports star is facing bankruptcy and on talk shows/in the paper discussing his story about how it 'all went wrong'.

Right. It's pathetic. And I have a feeling he may even end up broke - I can hardly see him being a successful businessman and if he keeps spending like that he'll eat up his wealth quickly.

I can see an IRS investigation and him having to pay loads of back taxes too.

And whilst talented, unlike most boxers he doesn't earn t the hard way as he is so defensive and rarely gets hit. He is an unpleasant human being judging by that odd documentary, his conspicuous displays of wealth (which show a natural insensitivity to others are excessively narcissistic) and his repeated woman beating.

I hope he ends up broke and gets his comeuppance.

To me that just makes it worse. He's forgotten where he's come from, if he's not careful he could end up back there one day, wonder how much sympathy will be felt if it does happen.

It amazes me that a woman can become that idolised for basically just looking good in a bikini. Does she do anything else?

I could understand if the people turning up to see her were all teenage boys or dirty old men wanting a perv. But I suspect that wasn't what the majority was. The scary thing is, there are people who think she's a cultural icon. :lol:
