Why is Floyd's fanbase so small?

[C'MONMANG']

Wow. there is no getting through to you. Why do you care about HIS money so much? We as fans do not see ONE cent of that. The only thing we gain from fighters is the experience of watching them perform at the highest level. That is something WE can own. It is something WE can cherish but all you do is talk about how rich Floyd is and why he shouldnt fight this fighter or why he SHOULD fight that fighter because of the money he can get or cant. What you should be concerned about his getting to experience more of what he can do. Getting to see MORE of what he can do, but "fans" like you only care about the lifestyle and his personal life as if you were blood or on his payroll. What has happened in your life to cause you to be like this? An abscent father figure? A boring suburbanite life? You're life must be very uneventful and meaningless to bask and gloat about a life that is not yours.

HAHA too funny. you nailed it.

In his last two fights he went against the TWO biggest stars in the world..period.

Oscar..is well Oscar..hes loved by people who still think Tyson is the Heavyweight King...very casual fans.

Hatton is from another COUNTRY ofcourse he was going to bring a good number of them.

In America we have dozens of BIG NAME boxers to choose from....in the UK...what do they have Calzaghe and Hatton.....when you have two people to cheer for ofcourse theyre going to fill the arena.

Floyd is the biggest star in the sport BAR NONE.....but his fanbase is limited???...funniest **** I heard in a while.[/QUOTE

haha, leave him alone man, i feel really sorry for him. he keeps back tracking editing posts like crazy. im sure he's a good kid.

yeah his fanbase is limited , especially for being "the biggest star" he isnt the biggest"star"..

Cotto has more fans them them, Gatti has more fans them him Dela..TITO..

seriously dude..

there is a difference then being looked at as the best and having the biggest fan base..

Look at Lewis...he was the bar none the best heavyweight when he fought Tyson.. but most of the people that tuned in, tuned in to see Tyson...

" Why is floyd's Fanbase so small " this statement is based on speculation.

[Makaaveli]

Cos his style of boxing is extremely boring, and he isn't entertaining at all.

I would say that Floyd has a big fanbase - The thing is, the people that are his fans arent boxing fans. they are fans of mtv cribs, or pimp my ride, or I love NY or the crap that BET puts on. His fan base is very small within the boxing community is what i think is a more correct statement. I went to a bar to watch the FMJ/ Hatton fight and there were a ton of people cheering for floyd, and if you listened to them they had no idea what the were talking about...

a sampling -

"this fight is for the middleweight championship"

"they dont televise fights, except on PPV, anymore"

"floyd mayweather is a power puncher"

they are all real, all spoken by mayweather supporters, who i bet you have never even heard of Miguel Cotto, Paul Williams, Kermit Cintron (even though he is from this town!), or Antonio Margarito.

great post my friend. like the guy arguing with my freind saying that Cotto was too small and therefore it doesnt justify Floyd fighting him.


my friend was like
