It's just the idea of pulling up in a yacht is the opposite of what everybody tells you about fighting. Fighting you have to stay hungry, stay humble, you know, like Rocky III style. You don't pull up in a fucking yacht. But if you do, the only person who's been able to do like that is Floyd Mayweather. He's the only guy who's been able to just be balling out of control, constantly flashing money, million dollar watches, you know, a fleet of super expensive cars and still fucks everybody up. He does. He's the only guy. Yeah. Literally the only guy. I'm trying to think of other guys besides like him and Connor who's really Adrian Broner, but he's just one, I think. He won a disputed decision, but he seems to be more concerned with having fun and being crazy. The thing about Floyd is he never lost his discipline. Like Floyd's discipline was undeniable. Right. But through that ball and nights, he never I don't think he was doing drugs or drinking. You know, he kept his pretty Floyd would famously run home from the nightclub. So he would go out in Vegas. He'd be partying. It looked like he's partying. He's drinking water. And then he would have his driver drive and with his fucking pants on jeans on, he would jog home. And the dude was always training, always training, never got out of shape. The jog home and jeans isn't the torture. The torture is sitting around a bunch of drunk people drinking water in a club. I jog home all night rather than that. Right. Yeah. It's an interesting thing, though, the keeping your motivation as you reach a certain level of fame and success, because that's a lot of the motivation for fighters is to one day be that champion, one day have that money where your family is going to be taken care of for life. You don't have to worry anymore. You hit that spot like and then what keeps you going? Yeah. How do you remain a student in that spot? Yeah. There's the famous quote that it's hard to wake up and run the miles when you sleep in a silk pajamas. But Boxer said that. But yeah, it's got to be true. You know what? Unless you just keep setting goals, maybe he's trying to to do something that's never been done. Maybe that's the driving factor now, you know, because a lot of guys money might be the driving factor. But once you get the money, maybe you set it up to try to leave legendary things behind. Like, well, the thing about Floyd is he spends so much money. Maybe that maybe money is still the motivation because he's just always about to go broke because he's just spends like a fucking mania. I would like to think even though he's spending like that, he's made some great investments. And yeah, I'd like to think that too. But I bet it's not the case. Yeah. Yeah. Definitely spend a lot of money. But he's made so much man. Over a billion. Right. Isn't that crazy? Over a billion. Over a billion dollars in fighting a billion. With a B. And now he's about to fight Logan Paul in a boxing match in Japan. But apparently they postponed that. Right. I thought it was a different fight in Japan. No, I think it's Logan Paul. Right. It is. Yeah. No, it's Logan Paul. They postponed it, though, because they weren't they didn't have enough pay-per-view interest. Right. Is that the. Jamie, you know, the not according to them, but according to the cover, I mean, Mayweather side. Yeah. Yeah. New dates coming soon. Yeah. Whatever that means. I mean, he's fighting 200 pounders. I mean, obviously, Logan Paul is not a real professional boxer in terms of like certainly not in the caliber of Floyd Mayweather, but it's a big fucking dude. Yeah. Huge because Floyd's not a big guy. No. You know, I've never seen the other guy in person. I don't know how big he is. I met him. He's a big fucker. Yeah. Yeah. He's big. Skills pay the bills, man. I guess so. He doesn't give a shit, man. Well, he also fought tension. Nazu kawa, the little tiny dude in Japan, which was ridiculous. And that guy fights it like 126. Yeah. I was surprised at that one. I thought Floyd was going to beat him, but I thought it would be a little bit more happening than that. That was I. Floyd didn't even look like he trained a day for that fight. He looked like he was a little bit out of shape, like a little ring around the midsection and smiling, like smiling like he knew what he was going to do. Like, how are you going to beat me? He's so little. Yeah. Like he's been fighting these big power punchers and he's fighting this little guy who's known for his kicks. Right.
