~Mayweather's Fight Options after Shane.~

Floyd needs to fight williams, berto, martinez to build his own legacy since a fight with pac isn't happening. Floyd is already an ATG. I think if Pac doesnt want to fight him he will fight Berto.

So I suppose floyd didnt have great skill before he fought DLH? Up until DLH,floyd wasn't a draw at all. Oscar introduced floyd to the mainstream. If floyd is great,it's at lightweight. Yet,he couldnt sell shit down there. However,wasnt he already highly skilled at lightweight?? The reason floyd is a big draw is because he's an undefeated American always boxing on his home turf. Alot of people buy his PPV's to watch him lose. Floyd's "0" ,plus obnoxious,pompous behavior makes people dislike him. It makes people want him to lose his undefeated record. Which is what he wants. He sells that fake thug shit real well. We all know that dude isnt a thug. Thugs dont fight like he does in the ring. They fight like Tyson.He knows his skills alone can't sell a fight. Floyd is a bore at welter. Everyone except his lovers know this. It's why he's real picky with whom he gets in the ring with at welter. Once he loses,his draw will be less unless he rematches the man whom he lost to. I for one have already stopped buying his PPVs cause he doesnt fight in the ring. DLH sparring match was the last straw. I realize he's skilled,I just want him to take more chances in the ring. Then again,you cant teach an old dog new tricks. +100000. couldnt agree more. froid is a clown.

You nailed that on the head....very good read.

The only reason why people are talking about JMM is because of Manny. His biggest thread on BS is because of Manny. You're talking about right now. I said he was more popular than JMM when he was active. it'd be stupid to use threads on NSB as a barometer for a fighter's popularity. this is a boxing community full of hardcore fans. i am talking right now and i am talking about at the time of the PBF/JMM fight.

I'm still waiting for you to give me a list of fighters who did numbers like Floyd without a large fan base and carried a fight on his own. Floyd also has a good fan base in the UK. Casual fans also pay for skills. You can have all the marketing in the world, but people aren't going to pay money to watch two fighters with little skills. They're part of the reason why he does well, but the man does have a large fan base. Prove to me he doesn't have a large fan base. -when did floyd carry a fight on his own? baldomir? -the bold part is a lie. you overestimate the casual buying public. marketing sells. -no he doesnt. get over it. all you need to worry about is that you're a fan. the proof is at his fights. the mayweather contingency is SPOTTY at best. the proof is when i went to watch marquez in the theaters and about 70% of the theater was rocking the red, white and green. 25% was neutral. the other 5 pulling for mayweather. the proof is the overwhelming support marquez got in his fight from the crowd. the proof is in despite the overwhelming marquez support, the fight was still 4000 tickets short of a sellout after giving many of them away...and after 6 months of promotion. the proof is in floyd begging for american support on TV. even he knows he doesnt have that many fans. i dont understand how they can ship busses from tijuana or other parts of mexico or have thousands from the UK flood vegas for mayweather fights, but you only see pockets of mayweather fans on the strip....and thats basically where mayweather's made his home for the majority of his pro career. he cant even carry his own area. its ok he doesnt have that many fans. it doesnt matter to him, but in that regard he is an anomaly as far as being a draw.

That's what he said about SSM before and now he's fighting SSM. Manny's team said the same thing and now they want to fight him. but you have to consider the fact that this fight has been brewing for years.

floyd isn't fighting any of those guys. none of them have a big enough fan base to generate enough money to make floyd take notice. That's what he said about SSM before and now he's fighting SSM. Manny's team said the same thing and now they want to fight him.

neither of em are mentioned by the media and neither are really talked about much unless discussing future opponents. now if, margariot is brought up as a possible opponent for pac, of course he's gonna be talked about more. but like i said, margarito lost a lot of fans. justifiably so.

Margarito is more popular than JMM I might say.

Who are people talking more about right now between Margacheato and JMM? That should tell you who is more popular... You don't hear people talking about him in the media. neither of em are mentioned by the media and neither are really talked about much unless discussing future opponents. now if, margariot is brought up as a possible opponent for pac, of course he's gonna be talked about more. but like i said, margarito lost a lot of fans. justifiably so.

that has nothing to do with a fan base. or are you back off that? hardcore boxing fans pay to watch skills, not casual. casuals respond to marketing and hype. are the haters why he sells millions? no, but they are part of the buying audience. i agree about canelo, but in a few yrs. right now? no.

Point is, if JMM had faught anyone else, would he had done over a million PPV buys? Why did people suddenly take interest in his September fight? -no....maybe pac. maybe. -becuz he was fighting mayweather, duh... amongst other things which i already detailed ITT

I have been to one of his fights. PPVs are more important than the live gate. He does well because he has the skills and talent to back up all his work he does outside the ring. People aren't going to pay good money to watch a fighter who has little skills. Some say his fights are boring, but the man still does good numbers. Who else besides Manny can do similar numbers than Floyd right now? Are you saying his haters are the reason why he sells millions of PPVs? Canelo is the next big star in a few years. that has nothing to do with a fan base. or are you back off that? hardcore boxing fans pay to watch skills, not casual. casuals respond to marketing and hype. are the haters why he sells millions? no, but they are part of the buying audience. i agree about canelo, but in a few yrs. right now? no.
