I'm not a hater of Mayweather as a fighter, I think he's an amazing fighter.
But....
We have been conned by people like him for so long.
For the sake of boxing, don't buy this PPV....it's no different from making a stand and refusing to vote against corrupt leaders....
Don't but this PPV for the sake of boxing....Maidana has no chance...fact.
That's why there is a rematch.
Boycott for the good of boxing.
and to think hes always getting away ripping these gullible people, dayum no wonder boxing is far from recovering its past glory.I really cant wait for next year for this rip-off to retire from boxing
I hear ya bro
I was right. Kenny STOP STOP Bayless stole the show!
Then on the undercard, you had the other TMT fighter winning a fight where he did nothing. Maybe that is why he didn't even try to fight. He knew in advance the outcome! What a joke!

Thanks bro but regrettably so, I feel bad when people waste their money and their night on stuff like this. Hopefully in the future we can agree and stand up to the system. No way I'm paying 80 bucks on a fight that's already been decided before the fighters even enter the ring.

Just one last thing, I've had no glory in being right about this, I feel bad for everyone that lost money tonight.
i'm laughing my ass off at them
different strokes for different folks
lol
These boycotts never work, bruh. It didn't even work for the Ron Saltza fight.
the reason is because there are more sheep/idiots than smart people.
sad truth.
It does me no favors to be proven right, I actually wanted to be proven wrong, but this is the ugly side of boxing. I can't wait til mayweather retires, I will never mention him in the same sentence of the all time greats. Back in the day the best fought the best non stop, win, lose or die. Mayweather fights twice a year at most, never leaves Vegas, his home, chooses the gloves, the ref, the judges and other stuff we buy in to. Bad champion, not a people person, a money person. He's Don King reborn as a boxer.
I've been calling this for a while, it's simply not fair on the fans. I feel sorry for anyone that got ripped off tonight, it's happened to me a few times. Sucks.
Terrible fight. Terrible card. Maybe putting Bey vs Vasquez in the undercard was supposed to make Floyd look good in comparison. Feel kinda bad for Showtime for having to foot the bill for this excitement.
Just wanted to say that we all should have boycotted this fight. Terrible card and an obvious victory for someone that took your money. Now you know why he's called 'money' mayweather.
don't worry a lot of boxing fans have been boycotting his fights for a while, its generally the nuthuggers and the casuals buying it
example
guerrero- lost showtime 20m, left a huge red hole, floyd made no ppv bonus
first chino fight- the fight did so bad, they refused to give the numbers, rumoured to have lost 30m
the boxing world has spoken, stop ducking pac and fight the best
Slow fighters/big punchers/flat footed opponents were never a threat to Mayweather, I'd love to see Mayweather fighting someone with speed or who can box like Amir Khan,Bradley,Thurman,Pacman. I think any of these 4 can beat Floyd IMO.
you need a side chick bro
I get it, you hate when people talk negatively about your hero Floyd ..... but if you had an ounce of objectivity in you, you would be agreeing with me .... at least partially.
Why boycott?
Kenny Bayless - They got Kenny Bayless as the ref, just to be sure that Maidana will be thinking more about not getting DQ than fighting his fight. Some Floyd fans have said that Bayless only warns but never deducts points. Well, Maidana was deducted 2 points in his fight against Karass and guess who was the ref?
Dave Moretti - Yes, he judged the first one and yes he is now going to judge the second one and yes he had FLoyd winning comfortably in the first one. Moretti gave Floyd the rounds where Maidana did his best work! Think about it. Maidana could have reproduced what he did in the first 6 rounds and still would have lost 8-4, according to Moretti!
How can you make him be a judge when he didn't even consider the first one close? So Floyd just has to convince 1 of 2 remaining judges!
Punchers Gloves - According to Floyd himself, Maidana's record is due to Maidana being allowed to fight with his preferred punchers gloves. So what does Floyd do? Floyd intentionally removes the KO artist's, Maidana's, most important equipment from the equation so there is less "risk" of losing the fight.
Alex Ariza - As recently as 4 months ago, Floyd was stating that Ariza was a cheat and skeptical about him. Now, Floyd has been seen hanging with Ariza. So one can conclude that his accusations and testing demands of Manny was only to avoid a Manny fight. More roadblocks followed to make it obvious. Also it was to bring down Manny, who was considered one of if not the most popular fighter in boxing during that time period. Floyd is laughing in your face...
Maidana has everything stacked against him in this one. It's so obvious that even an objective Floyd fan should see it.
