Why is Floyd's fanbase so small?

[bdevils]

you are very ignorant . you know crap about boxing..

was Ndou known? was, Sosa? COrely? bRUSSLES..
YOU MEAN TO TELL ME MITCHELL IS A MORE CREDIBLE OPPONENT?

again ill ask? who did JT OR ALi talk trash about that they DIDNT fight? answer the Q or stfu :cop:

I answered your ****ing question you *******. We are talking about Marg here right and about how Floyd supposedly ducked him for a career payday only to fight THE LINEAR WW CHAMP FOR THE SAME AMOUNT. Now I could see if Floyd fought someone else for a less amount you would have a legitimate arguement but that didn't happen so I think it's time for you to STFU because your knowledge of boxing is terrible.

no you didnt.

still waiting......

[*2TOUGH*]

He might not have fans that would travel to other countrys like Hatton has,but Floyd can sell out the big arenas,from now on,any Floyd fight will be a sell out,so to say hes got a small fanbase is ******,he can put asses in seats

the thread is saying that the reason "Floyd sells out" isnt bcoz of himself its bcoz he allows his opponants to sell the venue out for him. In actual fact im sure people tuned in to see Hatton KO Floyd. Not the other way round.

Where have you been? That offer came after he fought Judah and he opted to fight Baldy instead of Marg. So what the **** are talking about? How long you been following boxing? But whatever helps you sleep at night you ****ing ******.

No you dumbass Floyd went up to 147 for the Judah fight that was his sole reason for going there and Sharmba was his tune up like Baldy was supposed to be Judah's. So where the **** do you get your info?

Marg at the time was completely unknown to the general public and if the fight would of materialized he would of got absolutely no credit from most so-called boxing fans on this site. I can't understand how someone who won a vacant belt be considered the #1 WW without any note worthy opponents on his resume.
And as far as the Cotto fight is concerned give it a little bit of time that fight will definately come off. Too much money for Floyd to turn down.

So as far as who Ali and Toney fought well they fought top names that the general public who followed boxing knew of and wanted those fights and besides that there wasn't as much politics in boxing as there is now.
