Is Floyd Mayweather sports brightest businessman?

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Fascinating article. Sure he's had his legal issues but cutting out the middlemen in boxing? genius. The way he's promoted himself as sports biggest heel? genius. I'm sure there are rivals to him but he's got to be up there. Magic Johnson is insane as well.

[Listen]

What about his random million dollar Vegas bets on sporting events?

Hope to get my hands on this issue for free through a friend tomorrow when it's released.

Al Haymon is the one that should be credited for it all, really.

I liked this NY Times article on him a few months ago -

I think Haymon got the goons on deck too, btw...wouldn't shock me.

He's the biggest c00n in sports. But damn, I love watching this nikka make white folks mad.

if it wasn't for haymon, shyt floyd probably would still be wit arum.

haymon just a brotha lookin out for other brothas.

 

[Jesus Is Lord]

How y'all gonna credit Al Haymon for it all? Floyd is the boss and calls the shots, don't minimize his role because he has a great team. Floyd BEEN about his money and demanded certain things but Al HELPED him get to next level. I'm just saying...

 

[FaTaL]

hes not that smart, i remember he had a lot of tax problems

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

No Floyd aint, if he was that smart then he wouldnt get caught up in the legal trouble he has done for starters. Nor would he of joined up with J Prince lulz to then beg Bob Arum to get him away from J Prince and protect him.

Floyd aint that smart unless its in that ring. Now he knows how to sell a fight, but so does Mayorga.

 

[concise]

We gonna ignore the things he learned in WWE in the lead up to Wrestlemania 24?

So thats what Haymon looks like, I thought he was that bigger dide with grey/white hair I always seen in the ring with the boxers.

Unlce Bob hates Haymon, another reason why the fight between Floyd & Manny hasnt happened yet. Bob doesnt want him at the table at all, but Floyd'slike The whole juicing thing then the % is just a juicy storyline to throw out to the public.

wait what?

Floyd was wrasslin?

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

wait what?

Floyd was wrasslin?

Yeah against the Big Show when he was in semi-retirement to rest his fukked up hands.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Then his whole HBO 24/7 lead-ins. We talking about this generation's biggest PPV draw and it's really not even close.

I acknowledge the tax issues but that happens to Wall Street types every day.
