FLOYd might one day BE MORE POPular than ALI.....!!!!

[Fenom]

still my 2nd or 3rd fav fighter tho

[BMWM3P]

Floyd is as popular as Paris Hiton.

[Horus]

maybe he should focus more on spotlighting that rather than making 10 minute worldstarhiphop videos talking ****, flaunting money, cars, champange, and his record label

fact is..... Floyd chooses to focus on those things, if he shed light on any of the things you said people might see him in a different light

Floyd does Highlight that, how do you think we know about it.
If Floyd started highlighting his charity work right now he would look fake..because it would semm like he is only doing it for the good press...
so he is doing the right thing by having these programs, and not looking for credit for it...but knowing he is helping save somebody life...

plus the bad boy role, is what sales....everybody LOVES a BADDASS...

Popular vs.Notorious

Popular : regarded with favor, approval, or affection by people in general

Notorious: publicly or generally known, as for a particular trait
__________________________________________________ _________________________

THE TITLE was just to get you guys to c0me into the thread.... FLOYD will never be as popular as Ali....PERIOD!!!

People think you have to be popular in order to be a draw.....THAT is a MYTH..., and FACTS just dont support it...


The point of this Thread is Floyd doesnt need to be popular to be a draw....
His drawing power comes from being Notorious, and being a celebrated fighter
__________________________________________________ _______________________

ALI

The most popular fighter to ever live is Ali....
But for most of Ali career he was the Most "Notorious" fighter in the game....He wasnt loved, he was reguarded as a big mouth and ****y.....just as Floyd is today..

Ali didn’t become Popular until He "lost" not to Frazier but to the Government...
When People saw what the U.s Government was doing to Ali.. he became popular AND a fan favorite...

__________________________________________________ ______________________

Floyd

Floyd Mayweather is adding to his popularity everyday and he added to his “popularity” even more in the Hatton fight. He had overwhelming support because of the British fans booed the National Anthem...
You can hear the fans Screaming "U.S.A" and "FLOYD" throughout the whole fight....But I think that was just for that fight you never know though

But Now...


"Floyd is more Notorious rather than popular."

Floyd Mayweather is the most "Notorious" fighter in the game... He is without a doubt the most “Famous”
His "Fame" is second to only Oscar among Active Fighters
He is the most "Revered" boxer in the game... Floyd will never be the most Popular (loved) fighter right now because he has chosen to take the bad guy road... it doesnt meaned he isnt popular but he is more Notorious right now rather than Popular

History

As of right now I don’t think WHAT Floyd is doing is a bad thing....
Some of the most "Famous and successful" people history has ever known
Have been more "Notorious" than Popular... or Have been "Notorious" before they became "Popular"

Al Capone
2pac
Biggie
Ali
Malcolm X
Kobe Bryant
Terrell Owens
Deion Sanders
Britney Spears
Charles Barkley
Scarface (Tony Montana)
The list goes on....

My Point

Floyd notoriety and fame is what sell's the fight's not his popularity ....
Floyd being "Notorious".... sells the fight

People just don’t come to see Floyd lose just like they just didn’t come to see Ali lose...

People come because they are interested in Floyd.
He is a "hot rod" for debate as we see in the millions of threads, articles, stories, and interviews we see made about him....

If you think Floyd wasn’t half the reason for the first de la hoya P.P.V numbers then your crazy...

If you think Floyd wasn’t Majority of the reason for the Hatton fight then you’re crazy...


Floyd's widespread reputation of being "Notoriously" a great fighter and an Arrogant Person is what makes Floyd the most famous fighter in the game...

HBO, WWE, Rock Star understands this that's why they give him so much money...

The whole Boxing world Understands this that's why he is the most "Famously Celebrated" fighter in the sport.....

Oscar is the most Popular Fighter in the Sport
Floyd is the most "Notorious".... and "Celebrated"

Floyd like it or not, Is the 2nd Biggest Draw in the sport not because he is popular.....It is because he is "Notorious"....
