Floyd Mayweather: McGregor is a con artist who cannot even win in his own sport

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

100% agree. This is one thing I think is though

If Daly is black, I don’t think he has the support and absolute adoration of so many white people like he did. I think it would be more of “so said to see an idiot waste so much potential being a lazy drunk”

Those guys don’t act like assholes though. Marshawn Lynch acts dumb and people like him. I think most people can deal with it if it’s done in a goofy, fun kind of way.

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.

Yeh that’s my take. Both Connor and Floyd are pretty shitty, but Connor is more cunning and better and fooling the gullible people

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.

Care to explain why everyone loves Tiger Woods? He’s black, an alcoholic and a womanizer.

You obviously don’t post on this board. He is extremely polarizing

Tiger, in my opinion, obviously plays more to white people

Look, I don’t think it’s a big deal. People are drawn to life experiences and what they relate to. When white people saw Daly, they could relate. Everyone had someone in their family who was a good person that was ruined by alcohol

If Daly was black, and ghetto and not country, and was addicted to crack, he isn’t going to draw that relate ability

The real “conversation” that needs to be had is, yes, sometimes white people will see black people differently and vice versa as well, and it isn’t from some evil level

But we have gotten to the point where the left vilifies anyone who simply doesn’t stick their head in the sand to racial differences, and some on the right are so tired of it they know refuse to acknowledge anything ever happens revolving race

Money Mayweather hates it when other people get attention and not him. Muh racism! No, you're just an unlikeable dick.

You think the baws on here that love Daly love Dennis Rodman?

You are making my point. The people that like Daly are not going to normally crossover and like Rodman, and vice versa

I think you are the one who is missing the point.

Everything isn’t about race (except maybe for you, then it appears that skin color consumes you)

No one likes Mayweather because he has a terrible personality.
