Buenas dias, Oscar de la Hoya.
Good morning, Al Haymon.
For breakfast this morning, may we offer you some scintillating photos posted by Floyd Mayweather himself on his Twitter social networking page?

In the photos and the 140 characters or less message, the vacationing Money Mayweather only mentions one “character.”
“I'm chillin' with Don King,” Mayweather says.
He goes on to breathlessly report, with suitable photo, that he is about to devour a 20 pound lobster which costs $500, presumably paid for by King.
How is your day so far, Golden Boy?
And top of the morning to you, Al.
Mayweather seems to be in another South Florida flirtation with King. Please note that L'il Floyd did not say that his hanging out with Big Don was like “chillin' with a villain.”
Sure to make Al Haymon, Golden Boys super crabby is news that Floyd Mayweather was partaking of a 20 pound lobster with his good buddy, Don King.

Mayweather was hanging with DK back in 2009 and, when a rightly concerned Haymon found out about their tete a tete, he rushed by plane to SoFla to break up the clinch between the legendary promoter and Al's bigggest cash cow.
King, $500 lobsters...it's enough to make guys like Oscar, Richard Schaefer and Haymon very crabby.
It could be just another maneuver by promotional free agent Mayweather to jack up his income, to get more money paid to him by his adviser and by his chosen but contracted with promoter, Golden Boy.
Why not when it worked in Mayweather's favor once before?
As Muhammad Ali used to say 999 times each day about someone, this Floyd Mayweather Jr. is not as dumb as he looks.
As for King, you know his dream is to be the power who actually makes the Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao super bout especially when his career long archrival Bob Arum and Team Mayweather have bungled the situation not once but twice.
Don King, giant crustaceans, Don and Floyd flashing cash.
It adds up to a midsummer's nightmare for Haymon and the Goldens.
Let's see now if this plot thickens or sickens.
It's not lobster claws Mayweather should beware, it's those weighty, binding for life plus 20 year contractual clauses King imposes that he needs to watch out for.
I have a feeling Mr. Haymon is catching the next thing smoking out of LA to Ft. Lauderdale, don't you?
His star client, Money May, may be falling in love with Uncle Don.
It wouldn't be the first time that Don's got down with OPP if you know what I mean.
You could ask Cedric Kushner how DK swiped Hasim Rahman right from under his nose right after Rahman shocked the world by knocking out Lennox Lewis in South Africa.
He may be 79 or thereabouts but King remains The Great Seducer.
