That guy [Floyd Mayweather] is throwing his money around like there is no tomorrow.
Most people would think that I don't like Floyd Mayweather, but I like Floyd. He understood on how to keep winning, I don't care what anyone says, he kept the passion in his boxing and in his training to win. A lot of people lose that. They get the money and they don't want to train and Mayweather trained the same as when he had no money and persisted to win.
I look up to Floyd Mayweather, but I don't try to be like Floyd Mayweather. He's done great things, he's a role model. But those who say I try to be Floyd can go kick rocks.
Floyd Mayweather is bigger than the sport. That's the thing. Because you can go to somebody who don't even know what boxing is and say, "Floyd Mayweather." They'll go, "Oh, I know Floyd Mayweather. I've heard that name."
The only thing more embellished than Floyd Mayweather's pay-per-view buys is Floyd Mayweather's net worth. But his spending habits are real.
I wouldn't say Floyd Mayweather Jr is running scared of Amir Khan. Floyd doesn't need to run from anybody. Look at the names he has beaten during his career and it is an impressive list.
I went to America and beat Shawn Porter, a guy that was being called a 'mini Mike Tyson' and that most people were saying was going to take over from Floyd Mayweather. I went to his backyard and ripped his title off him.
Everyone still wants to see [Floyd] Mayweather and [Manny] Pacquaio fight. When the talks start though, it always seem like it is all about Mayweather, and I think the people hate that.
The only thing that can blow away the Michael Jordan sad face meme, is the Floyd Mayweather knockout meme. If Floyd Mayweather got knocked out - knocked out to the point where he is ice cold on the ground - I think that's the one meme that can just overwhelm the whole Jordan issue.
I could never leave Las Vegas. I can't really afford New York or Los Angeles. I love this town. We don't have that much. We have the Runnin' Rebels and boxer Floyd Mayweather. When Mayweather fights, it's good for the whole city. It's like the Super Bowl out here.
I look at guys like - guys like Floyd Mayweather making $42 million dollars for a pay-per-view - what am I doing differently from what this guy's doing?
I've earned some decent money, and bragging rights, and boxed on a Floyd Mayweather undercard in Vegas... but it's a fraction of what I set out to do.
Floyd Mayweather has fought the biggest names throughout his career and has earned the right to face whoever he chooses.
I feel like everybody is against Floyd Mayweather. I don't get any respect.
A guy like Manny Pacquiao or Floyd Mayweather is used to fighting 12-rounders. Put them into the ring for three rounds against a top amateur boxer at a much faster pace, and they'll lose a fight, and how bad is that going to make them look?
America is like some crazed, bewildered, rich giant bumbling around in a poor area with his pockets stuffed with money, and lots of weapons - just throwing stuff around.
Bob arum is Manny Pacquiao's boss, Floyd Mayweather is his own boss.
