BG, you did know Mayweather had a relationship with the Moneytalks "reality show," although it wasn't explicitly stated?
Anyway, it's not like Mayweather just started betting big in the last couple of years. I think "Floyding" would be a better slang.
And finally, as Arnold said in the last Terminator flick, "I'm old, not obsolete."
