    simple question
    No, but every hero needs a villian.

    Don't forget that right now people are talking less about Pacquiao's win, and more about the prospect of him fighting Floyd.

    So I don't think Floyd could continue the buzz, but would there be as much buzz on Manny if the Floyd fight wasn't out there? I don't think so.

      when floyd retired, the buzz continued...without a villain

      when PAC goes, im not sure Floyd can carry the torch...we might even see a decline

          we had some great fights during PBF's retirements


          dont get me wrong...the buzz in boxing is strong right now but what happens when you take PAC out of the equation...is the floyd hype machine strong enough to keep it going?

            We are going to rely on Paulie Malignaggi's drawing power to keep boxing alive.

                  I still can't believe you compared me to bhopregin and Horus...

                  Those guys are morons, whereas I'm just being my usual hilarious self.

                  Where's the love??

                    i'm not the biggest floyd fan but losing both at the same time would be a serious bodyblow to the sweet science
