Killer Mike says that world championship boxer Floyd “Money” Mayweather should be appreciated more than he is.
“I am not sure about folks who tell me they don’t ‘like’ Floyd,” Killer Mike writes in the caption of an Instagram photo of Mayweather with more than a dozen of his boxing championship belts that he posted today (October 23). “He works Hard, he refuses to be handled so he Went into biz himself. He partners with another black man ‘Al Haymon’, and they have dominated while dispelling that ‘blacks can’t be in biz with on another myth of evil’.”
After stating that Mayweather enriched his family by employing them and by moving past disagreements with them, Killer Mike says that Mayweather has also done things other boxers have not.
“He saved his health and is wise with his dollar so his children’s children will prosper (that is some biblical King David shit right there),” the Run The Jewels rapper writes. “He played the fool, full of folly & fooled us all. We thought he was drinking and he was training, we thought he was smoking and joking but naw he was training. He created a style in which none cud defeat him! Call it Running I call it evading . It is what Akido preaches. Use your opponents energy & force against them. He knows you used more energy missing so he made u miss and when he got the chances he pelted you. After the fight was over u were tired worn and puffy while he was smiling smooth faced & talking shit!”

Killer Mike then addresses the physical confrontations Mayweather has had with the women in his life.
“We thought his run in with the law and immature act of fighting with a woman wud do him in but naw, he learned, adjusted, accepted and matured,” Killer Mike writes. “Bravo for that too, for any man that has made that horrible mistake and matured into better. Floyd thank U for figuring out what Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Both Suga Rays, Ali & Tyson alike cud not: u mastered boxing inside and out side the ring, u mastered your passions and u let nothing become the Master of You. #SelfMastery is truly a gift earned thru pain and u suffered for your greatness. I am inspired by this brother. We all want the Belt (what ever your goal is in life) but, who is willing to #SelfMaster to achieve the Glory.”
