The Breakfast Club Releases Audio Of Floyd Mayweather Struggling To Read A Drop

he needed 10 times to read a 8 sentences long paper.

punch drunk or because he didnt do well at school?

I mean I always knew he wasnt the brightest, because of him being an adult but acting like 12 year spoilled child. but that he couldnt read propper without struttering the whole damn time, thats new.

now people gonne come and say, "well he cant be that stupid, he has over 100 million dollar on his account" and I say, what does money, ecspecially in sports has to do with intelligence?

i see 50 cent said he'd donate $750,000 to charity if floyd reads 1 page of a harry potter book so i guess he knows floyd isn't the best reader in the world ...

I mean it is not nice from 50...I dont like that kind of "we've been good friends, but now I try to f....... u in the ass"

I mean, it is one thing to post it on a forum, like I do and make a bit of fun out of it, because I am a hater of his fighting style and his personal way he is acting infront of the camera, but if I was a superstar and a good friend of his I wouldnt try to go that way, just because I am not a homie of his anymore, unless there was some realy dirty personal shit going on, but thats not the case with 50/floyd. it was just floyd not wanting 50 as a business partner, its not like floyd slapped one of 50 's children or some dirty personal stuff.

but its still funny, like somebody like floyd always acts like that super intelligent mastermind, with the greatest sports entertainmant business 8) in the world, when in reality he only can do 2 things real good and thats technical boxing and talking crap and both have litle to do with actual inteligence. because he did not become rich by having innovative creative intellgent thoughts, but by boxing technicly and defensive and innovating a persona which cant be more stupid, a "money" persona, that spends all his cash on cars and jets and making himself interresting talking stupid stuff and it worked, because most people are stupid or are entertained watchign stupid people doin stupid things - honey boo boo and homer simpson just an example, but dont get me wrong, I like homer

Why do you need to read when you're Floyd Mayweather?

because a lot of interessting stuff is written down and its nice to read in spare time and become a more knowledgable person.


sorry but the question itself from u is so stupid, that i assume u stupid, othertwise you wouldnt ask. hahaha

99% of the people who read better than Floyd make less money. Floyd's can be a clown, and he may not be able to read a nursery rhyme, but the dude has got the type of smarts most of us could only dream of having.

Somebody doesn't understand irony which is not a sign of intelligence.

What was meant is that if your are Floyd, you can hire somebody to read for/to you the same way you hire somebody to give you a bath.

making money has very little to do with intelligence ,greed is much more important any idiot can say i want more money

50 is looking like one of those girls who bring up their ex bf after every opportunity years after they've broken up with this Floyd sh!t.

I haven't seen this clip yet, but it wouldn't surprise me if Floyd can't read well he's been groomed to be who he is today since he was in the crib. School was likely far down on his to do list & cuz he was an exceptional boxers teachers probably gave him a pass.

I went to school with a kid who was one of the top basketball players in the country & if you'd have asked him what 2 x 2 was he probably have said Q. He would just chill in the gym shooting or roamed the halls during hs & somehow he graduated. I suspect many top athletes had similar situations.

So that you can read the fine print and know for sure that everything you have isn't in Leonard Ellerbe's name and learn if him or anyone around you have been screwing you over this whole time.

Mayweather gotta learn how to read.

If he can't read, even he's not even 100% sure if he has what he says he has. For all he know, everything he has can be going through Leonard Elleber like Tyson with Don King.

Never sign a contract unless you read it yourself. Your lawyers and CEO's can't be trusted neither.

There's book smart, there's business smart, street smart and good old common sense.

I agree Floyd was groomed as a fighter out of the crib and he probably never focused that much on school. Doesn't surprise me at all Floyd has a hard time reading out loud fluently. But at the end of the day, he can read so all this Floyd can't read shit is nonsense. Floyd isn't book smart, he's business smart. I don't think reading fluently is the only scale to use to measure ones intelligence lol. But hey, here you go more firepower for the Floyd haters, milk it for it's worth .

50 cent took trolling to a whole new level. His career is so far in the gutter as a entertainer and rapper so he spits out Floyds name every chance he gets to keep himself relevant.

If you can't read, or read as bad a Floyd does, you're not business smart no matter how much money you have. To be business smart, you at least have to know what the contracts say. Even 50 cent, someone who's street smart for real understand that.


It's funny how Oscar gets bashed for being so dumb but Floyd gets defended.

TBE doesn't need to read.

Skills pay the bills.

Don't get involved with the Floyd Mayweather appologists.

sure, but rich people can lose money fast. mayweather is not dumb but he is known for wasting a ton of money and I think he was even broke when he had his first comeback (didn't have have several millions of debts at the IRS once?).

I hope I am wrong but I could see mayweather ending up exactly like some other very rich boxers in 10-15 years.

mike tyson and holyfield made hundreds of millions and they are both broke. I think SRL was broke too and maybe roy jones is also broke.

it is not easy to hold on to large amounts of money if you don't have a minimum level of education.

There should be a challenge where all pro boxers read a page from a book and then we can tally up the % of them that can't read very well.
It'd be up in the 60s or 70s percentage-wise, for illiterates as opposed to educated.
This is no surprise.

What makes Floyd's being illiterate, something notable, is the fact that he's turned that into what he has.

yes he is dumb

the shit that he talks, the totaly unlogic stupid shit that he says and his stuttering when a conversation is just a bit cretic of him, he is dumb, there is no doubt,

an athletic body and trained boxing defence and a dumb money persona made him rich, not smartness or intelligence.


I mean the dude bought like 100 cars in the past several years, each car easily 200k and more, he bets weekendly millions, has an 20 head army of entourage, you do the math what that costs. I mean I am not hating on his lifestyle, I also would like to have 4 bitches always around me, but the level of wasting money he does, I mean if he had invar kamprad kind of money, than why not, but floyds 100 million or what he got on the bank will be gone fast if he keeps that lifestyle level in the next 10 years.

You make a good point. If Floyd Mayweather wasn’t an exceptional boxer this might be an issue. He surrounds himself with trusted advisors and he wasn’t stupid enough to jump in head first with 50’cent’s promotional outfit.

Idk that many are dissing either guy for being dumb, they both get sh!t for being "lesser men", Floyd due to his alleged dodging + fighting a defensive less fan friendly style & Oscar cuz he gots selfies with panties & fishnets. Ain't many boxers becoming scientists post boxing.

You and Cheppy should try it too.
