As you've probably seen on the front page of FH, HBO's showing what should be an interesting interview with Floyd Mayweather.

Not only is the subject of the interview a boxer that has proven that he completely understands the sport that we all love, but also a very high profile person who seems to have matured recently. I would expect that this interview will give us more insight into the mind of who I consider to be the best in the sport.

What makes this even more interesting is that Dr. Michael Eric Dyson is not only an intelligent guy (although he has said a couple of things that I disagree with), but he's shown me that he can get to the heart of the matter.

HBO tonight at 10.30pm ET/PT.

I haven't seen the 2nd 24/7 episode yet but the interview didn't enlighten me at all. Floyd shitted on Ortiz because people talk about him overcoming his past and now Floyd has been bringing up his past a lot lately.

My other issue is, Floyd sounds like a broken record. We know your father sold drugs and your mother was on crack. We know boxing was forced on you. We know you gamble gazillions of dollars. These topics he talks about in length but when asked about the case with the baby mama and Manny he didn't go too much in detail which is what I was waiting for. I wanted him to bring up his relationship with Top Rank as part of the reason for this fight not happening and speak more on the defamation case. Michael could have asked more questions as well, though he did a good job. Lastly, I forget the questions asked but Floyd answered a couple questions with answers that had nothing to do with the question. I was a lil disappointed but not totally. For someone who hasn't followed Floyd's career it was probably a more informative and intriguing interview though.
