Default Floyd Mayweather showing off (very obnoxiously) his rides

He knows people hate him but can't understand why. No, they're not all jealous because of the money. There are many people with money but not all of them are hated like him. He's just too godamn obnoxious. Well, back to the topic, what a waste of engineering perfection.

Boxing and TV star...Floyd def drunk talking how he feel. Man making $$$!

Really did not know he was such a "show-off". It was entertaining to watch.

I wish floyd didn't retire, i wanted to see him get knocked the **** out.

"It is a sad day in America when thug attitude is in style. Real men choose their words more wisely and prudently. Prove your bravado in the ring or on the field….words are cheap and in this case, sleazy, ignorant and a sign of a weak mind. Mayweather may be successful physically but mentally he is a failure."

So true...

I wouldn't say it's a "thug" attitude. It's more of a flashy and flamboyant style that he portrays. Typically you see that behavior in the weeks before a boxing fight to hype it up.

I don't care to have that amount of cars but that's Floyd's thing and any other actor or athlete. There is nothing wrong with that at all.

What an absolute waste. This guy is just useless. Yeah, the boy could fight and was good at it but for him to claim to be such a big car guy,,,fail!!! He claiming he got soo much money and he continuing to make al this money,, then why in the world does he have to "shoe horn" 5 cars in such a small garage. He can barely open the doors on the cars without hitting one of the other ones. While he has a "desired" selection, I didn't see anything in there which was groundbreaking. Just about anyone, with significant bankflow, has the same selection (with the exception of the Phantom Drophead). And his "cash money ""YEAH"" boys" will be the first ones to hit the road once his money goes out the window.

This is EXACTLY why he does this.

Do you guys not understand marketing? Everybody loves to see a villain get beat up. The whole arrogant thing is just his persona, and people buy into it and it makes him even more money. Boxing needs personalities like this. It's not that complicated

And I wouldn't expect his money to run out any time soon. He makes millions of dollars every fight. Apparently he got paid $20million to appear at Wrestelmania

Yes, you normally don't expect celebrities who make that kind of money to go broke, but you never know.
Guys like Tyson & Holyfield each made at least $100 million+ in their careers, Tyson went broke long time ago, & Holyfield is defaulting on the mortgage of his mansion because he has "ran out of cash, not broke", he said.
How they managed to **** away that much money just boggles the mind.

I understand marketing. A boxer is his product and talking trash is a way of promoting that product. Mohammed Ali did this but there was something different about it. It didn't make you hate his guts. Even when he said how pretty his face was and that he wouldn't let anyone mark it up, you tell it was a ploy, a tool, marketing the fight. He just didn't sit around talking about himself. It was all about a fight or an opponent. He didn't brag about his cars, homes and women. He bragged about how his fists would beat the ugly off of Joe Frazier, beat the monkey off of George Foreman, etc.
This Mayweather guy is cursing and pouting off street crap about nothing....except himself and what he has bought. Please. Just a thug from the hood who has made some money who doesn't understand that his wealth makes him a role model. Or it could have.

I didn't even know who he was until noted above.

He is such a fine speaker that I almost mistook him for an English Professor.
