Is Mayweather doing enough to promote boxing as a global sport?

Open up your heart and let that Hate out! http://assets.diylol.com/hfs/fb6/e6a/b9a/resized/clayton-bigsby-meme-generator-if-you-have-hate-in-your-heart-let-it-out-170190.jpg i never hated anybody in my entire life. i'm just stating a fact and i hope in the very near future you'll learn to accept the truth.

i hope fraud jr will never ever fight in asia. he might contaminate and spread his sweet science technique of ducking worthy fighters. :boxing: Open up your heart and let that Hate out! http://assets.diylol.com/hfs/fb6/e6a/b9a/resized/clayton-bigsby-meme-generator-if-you-have-hate-in-your-heart-let-it-out-170190.jpg

It would be cool for him to travel to Africa or somewhere in Europe for a fight.

He's doing more to help ObamaCare with your health come first.

Guess you missed those huge threads on it before he announced his fight in Vegas This isn't one of them Sounds pretty ignorant to me

Who said anything about a trt ban?Guess you missed those huge threads on it before he announced his fight in Vegas

Hold up,Hold up,i thought if he didnt fight in Vegas he was ducking the TRT ban..now he needs to fight outside of Vegas???wtf Who said anything about a trt ban?

Some very good points made. To me, even from a financial abd branding perspective, it seems like fighting around the globe would make a lot more sense. Look at fighters like Ali, Leonard, Robinson, and even Tyson. They went around the world at least somewhat and it turned out very well for them. As far as the world nit embracing an arrogant black man, they've done it time and again. Ali is beloved around the world for example. I'm not saying Floyd is Ali, because he's not, but I think fighting globally could only help him. Why not at least try the UK ?

ordering people to be brutally assaulted and murdered isnt enough? as for the only fighting in vegas part, well he has to. Its the only state that allows him to use banned ped Lidocaine.

actually, fraud jr is damaging the sport of boxing. hopefully its not too late for the sport to come back from where it use to be when great fighters from yesteryear fought each other to determine the real top man of the sport. eventually, ducking opponents will destroy the sport. sad to say but it's happening right now due to fraud jr. :sad:

fighting international stars like cotto and canelo is good enough. maidana is another international fighter thats on a high right now too.

I think Mayweather is only concerned with winning fights and making maximum money. I doubt the thought of promoting boxing as a global sport ever crossed his mind. I don't think he gives a damn about that. Mayweather is all about doing what helps Mayweather. I am not saying that's wrong. Most fighters are fighting for fame and glory but most of all for big money and that's the way it is.

Would take a ridiculous amount of money to get Mayweather out of Vegas and don't think he is only fighting in Vegas just because, I am positive Mayweather have some type of deal off the books to keep him as a Attraction In Vegas Vegas and MGM Grand is giving him extra Perks or something to fight exclusively in Vegas and at the MGM But No Mayweather is not an ambassador for the sport or anything like that, it is hard to be one for the sport In General when all the promotions are split and fighters basically have to promote themselves to make good money

He has a guest spot in Think Like a Man 2, but I would not figure that movie would be that popular outside the US.

No, he didn't bother with promoting boxing. When he became the top name in boxing and became no1 p4p he went AWOL for long periods and let Pac do the fighting and promoting. When Floyd became the p4p no1 it got harder as challengers wanted him and he couldn't accommodate them, and only fought once every 18 months. Before Floyd it was RJJ, Hamed and Barrera who were known. Floyd probably isn't even known outside of boxing.

well thing is, his main focus is to appeal to potential PPV buyers in the united states because that's where the cash is coming from. he is the money man, after all

Boxing does not revolve around Floyd. Floyd fights for Floyd, I don't think any fighter has been asked to do such a task like promote boxing globally. For people to become influenced they have to watch some one they can relate to. A talkative, flamboyant, controversial African American like Floyd would get boo'ed all around the world and create more hatred for himself rather than influence people.

He won't fight for penny cash, but it would be great if Floyd went on a European tour fighting Euro-cans on basic/cable television with cheap tickets.
