3. Floyd blocks Rachel Nichols and Michelle Beadle from obtaining credentials to fight with Pacquiao
As if his aforementioned tightrope walk around the hard-hitting issues regarding his history of domestic abuse wasn’t enough, Mayweather took manipulating the media to a whole new level before his fight last May with Manny Pacquiao by blocking Nichols and Michelle Beadle from obtaining credentials to the bout. Yeah, trying to silence two consummate professional reporters for speaking the truth about his abusive past is just about as low as it gets. But 48-0, right?
2. Putting honey in Floyd Mayweather’s coffee: One of the seven deadly sins
What’s the best way to divert attention away from an up-and-coming young fighter in Canelo Alvarez whom you’re about to meet in the ring in a few short days? Why, publicly humiliating a member of your entourage in front of a slew of reporters for not preparing your drink the way you like it, of course! Disrespect the hallowed brew of the Almighty Mayweather with the vile, accursed presence of honey?! You’ll burn for this!
(Beware of the bad language from Mayweather in this video)
Not since Ancient Greece have I ever seen anyone get this worked up over nectar. Money Mayweather, ladies and gentlemen!
1. The “I wish I were 50 years younger, I’d kick your a**” interview with Larry Merchant
I would really like to forget that Mayweather’s fight with Victor Ortiz ever happened. It was a deplorable showing by the two fighters with dirty tactics on both sides, punctuated by Mayweather’s 1-2 sucker punch to bring the curtain down on the garbage-fest. But the one positive to stem out of it was Mayweather’s unforgettable post-fight interview with Larry Merchant where the undefeated fighter cursed out Merchant, claiming he didn’t know squat about boxing, only for Merchant to fire back with a one-liner for the ages.
(again, beware of the foul language from Mayweather)
Oh, and the #MerchantFace was a classic as well.

What I would give for a chiseled, dark-haired, 30-year-old Merchant to be the last man standing between Floyd and 50-0. At least it would be a better matchup than this fight with Andre Berto.
Happy trails, Floyd. We will miss your constant tomfoolery in the media, but in true Mayweather fashion, you’ll probably still find a way to keep yourself relevant long after you retire.
