Floyd And The WWE

Floyd Mayweather Jr. again was at a WWE event for the weigh in of his wrestling match against Big Show. Floyd weighed in at 159lbs and Big Show weighed 441lbs. After some trash talking, Floyd got thrown out of the ring by Big Show. Now if you watch it appears Floyd may have actually hurt himself. It looks like he hit his elbow and if that is the case this may not be good. Not for the silly a$$ wrestling match but for his real career as a boxer. All this silly play can actually be serious. Yes I know wrestling like this is supposed to be fake, but one false move can still get someone seriously hurt. I think it is a mistake for Floyd to even mess around with this, but he is convinced it is a good idea. Not every way a person can make money is a good idea to make money. I think this is one avenue he may regret later whether he admits it or not. Check out the video below and let me know if you think he is really hurt.

I think he is hurt but nothing that will last. It's one of those had to be there/had to experience it to actually give a true assessment.

If he is smart about his money then he would never have to box again. The payout off this appearance alone was enough for an average man to live off of. Cut out the entourage and he's set for life. (not that this part of my comment had anything to do with the question)

Urbanthought, I agree it maybe one of those you had to be there pains but still. Floyd does not have to box anymore period. If he drops the entourage he could go into hiding and never have to be seen again. However that is not him. Floyd has wanted the limelight for so long that he is not about ready to give it up. My only issue with Floyd is the image he giving to our kids. The throwing of money around is so unnecessary. We are fully aware that he is rich, but no need to flaunt it. I know some of it is an act, but he really does not need to display an act. If he truly believes in God then the talent he has will pave the way for him. Act or not his displays of throwing money in the crowd and all this extra mess is not making his family or God smile.
