will he?? or would anyone buy his fights???
He wasn't a major PPV until he fought ODLH. The general public didn't start paying attention until he started talking shit to the real PPV king.
when floyd started playing the villian he started gettin paid, it started with gatti in his first PPV and he never stopped after that.
floyd plays mind games with fighters..by the time him and manny get in the ring, manny won't stand a chance.......wait for it...because floyd is already in his head..floyd has mastered his talk game like ali..when fighters finally get him in the ring they are so overwhelmed with killing the dude they lose the first 4 or 6 rounds and then start to panic and get wild and he cruises to victory.
you give too much credit to the thrash talk of floyd, whos into whos head, are you not noticing it? eversince floyd returned he never stops talking about pacquiao as if the pacman is the standard by which boxers should refer to. floyd maybe is in mannys head but manny is a level headed guy, he has faith in himself unlike most of the fighters you are thinking of. and besides manny is not american, hes filipino and theres big cultural gap between that, and you cannot compare him from other fighters psyche. you are discounting the fact that it is better that floyd is in manny's head it adds up as motivation for him to prepare more, thats filipino way, and are you blind? pacman is always up to the challenge, and floyd is just one of them. manny loves to fight, havent you not noticed it yet? everytime he went to the ring, everytime he does his walk to the ring, didnt you noticed his smiles, its like of the cats' that swallowed the canary. he relishes fighting in the ring. pacquiao's competitive psyche is of the highest level.
so if ever floyds in mannys head, think of that as motivation and when manny smiles when the time comes for them to fight consider that as death rites for floyd.
He didnt say one bad word about JMM and did 1 Million. So yes.
pretty stupid to say considering by then he already got his name out there by being the arrogant villain. lets say he was as humble as pac with his style from the beginning. still be the p4p cash cow?
will he?? or would anyone buy his fights???
he can talk trash, he just doesn't have to be so bitter and personal about it.
he doesn't have to tear down other boxers to make himself look good.
will he?? or would anyone buy his fights???
his fight should be on regular hbo, just so much boring that you will fall asleep while watching him fight.
He didnt say one bad word about JMM and did 1 Million. So yes.
nope he didn't trashtalk jmm, he did trashtalk mosley and pac while promoting that jmm fight tho.
well we will never find out IMO im just asking in ur point of view if floyd is not a trash talker since he started his career would it be a different story his legacy his PPV sales etc etc..
i know this persona of floyd makes his fans like him more.. they love how he trash talk his opponents... and they expect him to do different ways on how he will trash talk his next opponent..
Well I wasnt gon go here but I will. Name the last African-American fighter that was a huge draw without Mentioning Tyson who BTW was worse then Floyd.
Who knows? He didnt trash talk JMM and did 1 Million right? Who knows. Who cares my dude. We will never find out because he doesnt like Shane or Pac his next 2 opponents.

so its the reason why people buy his PPV cuz of the trash talking?? thats exactly the point of this thread my man..
Yes...my brother was irate after watching the Oscar/Mayweather fight because he paid for a boring fight and largely for the hype Mayweather brought but when it came down to it---Mayweather's style isn't cracked up to what people assumed which was a brawl...not some tactical BS he did.
im not saying anything wrong with it i just asked if its the main reason why people buy his PPV's cuz of his trash talking so u now admit its ONE of the reasons why people buy his fight.. now the question is..
will he still be PPV king without his trash talking???

No his skills made him great. His trash talking is one of the things that help him sell fights. Whats wrong with marketing yourself?

Without the trash talking---he's a great fighter with no star quality.
Edit: his style just doesn't present itself as something fans would generally pay to see apart from his trash talking
