Floyd Mayweather Jr. cemented his reputation as the biggest jerk in boxing with his antics on Saturday night. The human contradiction is a walking reality show looking for any way to gain publicity. He even got upset with HBO 24/7 for not showing enough controversies in their program. We know Floyd is all about the money, the buzz, the controversy, his perfect record, and avoiding Manny Pacquiao, but he wants people to believe that’s not who he is. Evidence: prior to the Victor Ortiz fight, he tried convincing reporters that The Notebook is his favorite movie.
“I really like The Notebook,” Mayweather told reporters. “I mean, who don’t want to die next to your better half, holding hands. Die in your sleep next to the woman that you love, holding hands. That way, neither of you will ever be lonely. This is an amazing story. When you get old, what could be more beautiful than that? I feel like if I leave this earth and leave my better half, she is going to be lonely.
“If she leaves me then I am going to be lonely. I mean, what is the point of making all this money and [having] all this if you can’t enjoy it with your wife?”
Mind you, this is the same man who “proposed” to his fiancee by saying he wanted her to be his wife. No ring, no down on one knee, no romantic gestures — just an order from a cocky man. He literally oozes the charm of a richer Roy Williams.
But back to the movie, I’m an admitted fan of chick flicks, but no self-respecting guy actually considers The Notebook his favorite movie. The Notebook. The Notebook! Come on man, seriously? We’re supposed to buy that?
