How big of a role could we be playing here in Mayweather's comments about his kids during his conference?

[Brother Love]

If he's really concerned about his kids, he shouldn't have brought them in that press conference in the first place. He's telling us not to talk negative about him because his kids might read them etc. But he's not worried when he hits their mother, take away their cellphones and threaten them. Boxing is a brutal sport patronized mostly by blood hungry fans. And he created a "bad boy persona" for himself. Had he projected a good guy reputation or image, he wouldn't be worrying about his kids hearing smack about him.

Sight seeing in a press conference? No testimonies are given in court yet because Floyd Jr. is delaying/postponing all court proceedings/hearings on his cases. But his children's testimonies were included in the formal complaint filed against him. That's why an arrest warrant was issued some time ago and he posted bail. And here's your link saying that a police report saying, "Mayweather's son told police that Mayweather also took phones from him and his brother."
