...running, potshoting and holding for 12 boring rounds is not good for boxing. I invited a few potential/casual boxing fans over to my house for the Marquez vs Mayweather fight and now I think they'll never watch another boxing PPV again. They looked like they were pissed at me for wasting 4 hours of their lives.
I wonder how many other potential fans Mayweather turned off with such performances. Mayweather has had a few HUGE opportunities to push Boxing into another Golden Era, but he hasn't capitalized. Good thing we have fighters like Manny Pacquiao, Miguel Cotto and Shane Mosley to counterbalance what Floyd is doing to the sport.
All but 389 of those fans were either:
Paying to see him get his ass whooped because he's so damn boring.
Paying to see him get his ass whooped because he's so damn annoying.
Paying to see Marquez on Mexican Independence Day weekend.
Casual fans suckered in by the promotion and will now turn away from boxing because of Mayweather's stinky performance.
I got it... All of the above
do the opposite of your threads...

:wtf1:
:rofl:
Let me get this correct...the Marquez-Casamayor PPV was the worst PPV of 2008 on HBO with 100K PPV Buys.......
then Mayweather unretires to face the same Marquez and he does over a million PPV Buys?
yeah ur right Mayweather has only 389 fans!!!:bigeyes:

sweet science my ass....he cant even do basic math.....thats how dumb floyd is.....
He is a damn genius in the ring. He has been doing it since he was two. His intelligence in terms of schooling is irrelevant.
Hell, Manny is an idiot and the dude is trying to run for Congress based on popularity alone.
PBF used to be exciting at 130 but he's become way too defensive and cautious for some reason since he's moved up. Even when he's dominating a fighter he wont open up to even try to finish, be exciting. I expect Floyd will win a boring UD over Pac in a fight that looks like Whitaker/Chavez 2...
Floyd finished Hatton only because Ricky got reckless and went for broke since he needed a KO to win.
This is the hilarious beauty of Floyd Mayweather. He manages to get a guy that can't stand him to spend money to watch him fight.

You know...when people order a PPV they should ask who they're ordering it to watch. It would really clear up a lot of the who's paying to watch who debates and bring a whole new dimension to the "draw" game instead of one person claiming the whole of the PPV numbers for themselves when it's a two man show. It'd be interesting to see how the numbers divide up.
Yes PBF is killing boxing, hence the 400 threads daily and the constant "over hyping" of possible contenders who are destined to take his O.
Seriously. This place would be a whole lot more boring without the guy.
how come he got hit and hurt vs a gatekeeper in corley?..........:afro:
Who cares? Every boxer gets hit/hurt at some stage. The guy still won the fight.

You don't have to see it if you don't want to. If Floyd was doing something wrong he wouldn't hold the record for the highest PPV in history. Ok Oscar was a big part, 50% and the perfect good guy bad guy story helped but Oscar didn't do those number never again, not even with Pacquiao, fact.
So if people don't like Floyd's style why is he the best p4p fighter for so long? Yeah you will say it's Pacquiao now but nah man, Floyd skills, they don't come again not in 10 years if we are lucky.
TRUE BOXING FANS LIKE SKILLS, that includes pot-shotting, defense and accurate punches.
dont get me wrong tyde, i pay to see floyd fight and you dont see me around here saying that floyd is boring. i asked you the question cause your post doesnt make sense
id love to pay to watch floyd get his ass brutally beat by the pacman........floyd 's tryin to pull out of the fight already....lol
do you think that floyd, crying at a post fight conference will make him sell fights? :lol1:
you both will be PAYING for this fight, no?
check and mate.
i'm pretty sure he just wants you to buy his product, like any other salesman. he doesn't know any of us, so why would he give a shit about whether you like him or not. fact is, you dudes talk big shit about dude, but you BUY and/or go to a bar to spend money to watch him fight....
i just find that hilarious.....
