I mean: Yes Erislandy Lara isnt marktable.
But every single expert in this world, would say that it is a very very tough fight for Floyd... causals listen to the opinions experts.
I think Mayweather vs. Lara would sell more than Khan/Maidana...
Thoughts??
Love boxing and I have seen to many times match ups like that that has no action what so ever. Big name giving big let downs. Counterpunchers don't give good fights.
If that tickles your pickle let it be. That match up don't do anything for me
Cause you want to see floyd fight the same old slow flat footed facebfirst defenders
But you love rigo and floyd boxing someone else.
And your supposed to be a big boxing guy?
Wtf who cares .
Boxing baby. You must love face first defense

That would be billed the most boring fight ever. Two counter punchers that are very defensive. They both will be waiting around for the other guy to do something

and the fight will never happen anyway
that would be Floyd's reasoning if people pressed for it
he'd be quick to say Lara's not a star or some shit
It would do Maidana numbers but Floyd doesn't do high risk low rewards, and why should he at this stage in his career?. He has made it clear and is proud of the fact that his matchmaking is based on what is best for him not the fans why would he fight someone who is more of a threat when he can getaway with feeding us either of the 2 sh*t sandwiches he wants people to eat.
only way that would happen if it lara fights canelo and whoops him, that makes him a bigger name. problem is, canelo is currently borrowing floyd tactic and saying "lara who" and will prolly fight angulo,molina,kirkland,maidana etc.
why are pac fans against this? floyd-lara is 50-50 by the time it may happen
The "pay to see Floyd lose" buys only go so far.
It only works when the opponent is somebody casuals want to see win. So even though they want to see Floyd lose, they don't want Lara to be the guy to do it.
They would rather their favorite guy do it. Which is how Floyd makes millions for sparring sessions.
Excellent assessment.

People are way too obsessed with PPV numbers
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Who cares if it doesn't crack half a mill?? I don't work for GB or Showtime. I don't roll with Floyd so I don't care how much his ppv sells. Lara is a great opponent compared to Khan and Maidana.

Casuals don't listen to experts and those so called experts are idiots/bias most of the times.
I see some floyd die hards dont wanna be honest.
Floyd vs a cab driver does 600k minimum.
Vs a threat , and vs a fast fighter in miami bringing out the superbowl of boxing event to the cubans. They will sell the arena out easy cause floyd is coming and sell 1 m.
Lara beats floyd 8-4
Any top Mexican fighter going up against any of the top P4P best will sell well.
One can see it two ways. The two biggest money generating PPV fights in history involved Floyd Mayweather, OR, the two biggest money generating PPV fights in history involved Mexicans.
Once you talk about Mayweather vs a top Mexican, you're looking at a minimum of 700k, and that's at worse.
