I have 2 nice video clips of Mayweather bragging about his stuff, then tells a reporter why is he all up in my personal business. Floyd does talk trash with arrogance and Larry is arrogant and ignorant. Besides not fighting Paul Williams, Sergio Martinez and of course Manny Pacquiao, I would like to bring back his statements regarding his return since retirement.
The one thing I remember very clearly was on HBO's 24/7 covering the Mayweather-Marquez fight. I know HBO's 24/7 is there to promote and bring rivalry to the fight but there is a line that should not be crossed. Floyd was showing his house and fancy items and made the statement "The difference between me and everybody else...my sh%t is paid for, what about yours!" Basically in a way of calling out other boxers, celebs and in a manner he showed low-class stating that to viewers and the majority are average working class people. That's a cold statement to make especially at the time where the real estate market was forclosing at the highest rate ever on homes in the U.S. and even banks were going under as a result. You have people losing everything, homeless and an economy compared to the great depression.
You reap what you sow. The Marquez post fight interview with Mayweather a reporter stated "According to USA today, Oscar De La Hoya paid your 6 million tax bill to keep the IRS from swooping in and taking your money. In what way does that indebt you to Oscar De La Hoya?" Floyd responded "Sorry I don't know what you're talking about sir,anymore questions?" Some laughed about it and then Mayweather added, "I'm not worried... I'm not about on your personal business, why you're about on my personal business." He was just showing the world his high style living and what he owns, now he wants privacy in that area. Does this sound hypocritical to anyone?
Apparently he wants to flaunt the all good and pretty and keep quiet and private bad and ugly.
Does he realize he called this out on himself?
Apparently Floyd Money Mayweather technically didn't own all that stuff he flaunted on HBO 24/7 if he owed the IRS 6.2 million back taxes. The items he claimed "he paid for", technically the IRS "paid for" and therefore he was showing off the government's sh%t!
Here are the video clips for those who would like to see Mayweather creating his own dilemma. First is the 24/7 clip at the very beginning where he make the statement about "paid for". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnQTiSRhU_Y&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL The next clip is at 17:35 in the clip when the reporter ask him the IRS question. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cc7LlV1drHU
