After the fight, Mayweather, who stopped McGregor in the 10th round in their much-hyped boxing match in 2017, jumped on his Instagram page to slam his former opponent and criticize fans for backing the Dubliner while also hating on him.

Mayweather shared a post that asked “Why is @floydmayweather hated for the way he carries himself but @thenotoriousmma is loved for the same way he carries himself?” and responded with a long rant about the Dubliner, who he dubbed “Con Artist McLoser,” as he called out fans for racism because he doesn’t feel as beloved by fight fans as the former two-division UFC champion.

“I seen this post and my take on it is that the world knows Con Artist McLoser can steal everything from me and be loved but I’m hated,” he complained. “That just lets you all know that racism still exists. Just know, that bum will never be me or be on my level. I’m just built different, my mindset is on another planet, my skills are second to none, I’m a natural-born winner and yes I talk a lot of trash, but every time I back it up! This is what they hate.

“It’s sad that you can be a poor black kid from the ghetto that has dealt with racism your whole life and work extremely hard to put yourself and your family in a better position, and most of the hate comes from my own people.”

Mayweather then turned his attention back to McGregor as he mocked the suggestion that the Irishman could potentially face his former rival Manny Pacquiao inside the boxing ring later this year.

“Connor (sic) cannot even win in his own sport,” he said. “But talking about coming back to boxing to fight Pacquiao. Nobody wants to see that, it’s like my leftovers eating leftovers.”

Sounds like he’s saying that black people hate black people.

Or, maybe Floyd, Conor just excels at showmanship?

This is the one area I do agree that overall white people def unfairly treat black athletes, but I don’t think it’s a big deal. It’s just fandom

John Daily is beloved for being a drinker and partier even though he wasted extreme talent

I don’t think that love happens if he is a black athlete that wastes his talent the same way

Gronk is loved for being a partying moron. I don’t see black athletes that are dumb as hell who party in the public eye get loved for it


Oh well, I expect a bunch of insecure white people to lash out at me

This is something that I've never understood. So a "bum" took you 10 rounds. Does he not see that? Maybe Floyd should cross over and fight Poirier to prove a point.

Who hates Mayweather? I think most people appreciate his boxing prowess, but he is boring because he is so good technically.

There it is. It's always about race to black people if you don't like them. I enjoy watching his fights and seeing him drop loads of cash making huge bets. Don't know him as a person, but hearing him talk and other stories he doesn't seem that intelligent. But he is a boxer and promoter so he doesn't need to be able to solve math proofs.

Connor fights the best in their prime, and typically finishes or gets finished


People started hating Floyd bc he ducked the best and when he finally did fight then he was boring and played defense the whole time.

People like action

He has a point. McGregor basically saw Mayweather's schtick generates revenue and he followed the playbook.

However not everyone loves McGregor. He's wrong about that.

The thing he has another point about is those who do like McGregor but hate Mayweather for the same personality. Why would you do that?

I like them both. They are entertaining personalities and fighters.

I’d rather pay twice to watch a McGregor fight than pay once to watch another of Mayweathers. That’s the most boring shite ever.

It's always a shame to see people cry about problems they helped create.

Is Mcgregor really as universally loved as Floyd claims here? I've seen him get shite on plenty of times.

He's managed to both flaunt his wealth and play the race victim card. Kudos to Mayweather.

I love Mayweather and can’t stand McGregor. But, McGregor would murdalate Mayweather in a street fight 99 out of 100.
