Yano with Brian saying Floyd wanted 10k to come on the podcast. One thing I noticed is why do podcasters expect people to go on for free and they also expect people to open up on personal matters to even though they're strangers and the public will see it. I remember Brian saying that he hates when guest don't open up on personal matters when there a podcast guest but I don't understand why they would. Go there for free, let loads of personal stuff out to the public and why? So some podcast the rake it in off your back and give you none of it.

People forget that Floyd loves boxing (maybe not as much as money), which is why he’s always training. He was the best of his era because was addicted to training . Imagine training all your life doing something you love, getting paid millions and then being told to stop. That’s insane . Props to Floyd.
