Female fans cannot stop admiring a cute and handsome Mayweather. “He was cute though.”

“So handsome” 

Another true fan had some advice for the boxer’s haters. “A lot of people hate on this man. I hear things like “he’s cocky, arrogant, etc”. Wrong, Floyd is just a marketing genius who mastered the art of boxing. He understood how lucrative it was to have people pay to watch his fights, hoping that he would lose. If you hate Floyd, you just fell for the marketing.”
