But i understand if you didnt read it..
The point was to Proved that you have to be popular in order to be a draw.....THAT is a MYTH..., and FACTS just dont support it...
And Floyd like it or not, Is the 2nd Biggest Draw in the sport not because he is popular.....It is because he is "Notorious"....

Floyd will lose all his marketability once he loses his 0. That is the only thing that is keeping people intrigued by his fights. They tune in to see if he will lose or get ktfo. Fact is, the majority of casual fans are not fond of his defensive/safety-first style.

CopY my Diss Style Huh..???
But didnt you Vote that That Floyd is not a draw..??
How do you justified this Vote..With all the facts Supporting my Claims...
To answer your Claim That Floyd would lose all of His Market appeal once he loses....
That could go 2 ways...He can either lose it all.....
or
His Lose can Humanized Him and he can Finally become Popular instead of Notorious....
Remember
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...
So it works Both Ways....

the "Double-Standard" FLOYD on Has on him is Amazing. Floyd is Held to a Standard No Fighter in History is Held too,,,
"Mayweather Double-Standard"
1. Cant Fight Nobody who is his same size or smaller then him or it isnt a fair fight...
(Have to fight Bigger Opponents for the fight to be Fair...)
2. No tune up's fights
3. Gotta be Fighting every 4 Months..
4. Gotta focus only on Boxing
5. Cant fight for Money, He has to fight to proved what he already is.. and that is Number #1
6. Anybody he fights and beats is a bum until somebody else beats them, then that's that Fighter career Achievement.
7. You only can Compare Floyd to All Time Greats or it dont Count
8. Floyd whole resume doesnt Count... Just only 2 years of his resume
9. Floyd cant turn down no fight...
10. Floyd must Fight every fighter in Boxing to proved he is Number #1
Like the saying goes...
Whatever applies to Floyd, apparently doesn't apply to anyone else. And what doesn't apply to Floyd, applies to everyone else. It's a circle.
"Floyd only sold 325k with no name Baldomir... he's not a REAL STAR"
"WOW Shane Mosley vs. Miguel Cotto 340,000 buys!! They are the true stars of boxing!"
At the end of the Day... This is what it comes down Too...Last edited by Horus; 03-28-2008, 10:59 AM.

LOL Horus is just relentless with his little science project, well well well
all right tell me something Horus
how is it that when you're a big draw people walk out of your fights before they even finish? im talking about little Junior's perfomances, and you know exactly what im talking about.
so im wondering as to what your answer will be?
Fact: Floyd mayweather Jr. is a ***** runner, who picks the easiest fights for most money. and that money comes from viewers who PAY TO SEE HIS OPPONENT, NOT LITTLE JUNIOR. this little ***** is a trash talker who thinks his empty bull**** talk makes him charismatic when it doesnt, and he believes he's own bull**** so much that he doesnt know how to stop.
another fact: this little ***** runs his mouth about his father to promote his fights. drama sells especially in boxing, junior knows it and uses his ****ty dramatic lifestory which is not really dramatic.
fact: he's a ****ing lying hypocrite who says things whenever and however just as long he feels convinient about saying it at that particular moment. in interviews that little ***** throws one dollar bills at his adoring fans, almost buries his ass in all that cash flow and talks green all day. the next day his says he's doing for the love of the sport and that boxing is the greatest sport in the world. then he says nothing is bigger than WWE, and nothing is more insulting than that to an average boxing fan, or to boxing itself. so which is it? or is little junior so ****ing ****** he doesnt even know what's he barking at
Fact: that little ***** is AVOIDING EVERY ELITE WELTERWEIGHT OUT THERE, NOT JUST COTTO, EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERY-****ING-ONE name one legit welterweight he beat that he wasnt expected to beat, name one? and dont come here bringing Judah, just dont do it.
Fact: he's **** to watch boring as ****, and that's why everyone in the arena boos him and walks out on his sorry ass
i could go on with that **** all day
and then you say he's a big draw? do you believe the **** you type, or you got nothing better to do? honetly
FLOYD IS A ****ING DISGRACE. YES THAT'S ANOTHER WELL KNOWN FACT

FLOYD IS A ****ING DISGRACE. YES THAT'S ANOTHER WELL KNOWN FACT
Fact: Something that actually exists; reality; truth.
Opinion: a belief or judgment that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty. a personal view, attitude, or appraisal.
"Fact: Floyd mayweather Jr. is a ***** runner, who picks the easiest fights for most money. and that money comes from viewers who PAY TO SEE HIS OPPONENT, NOT LITTLE JUNIOR. this little ***** is a trash talker who thinks his empty bull**** talk makes him charismatic when it doesnt, and he believes he's own bull**** so much that he doesnt know how to stop. "
This is a Opinion, because you gave no sources, and no Facts to prove your statement...
"and that money comes from viewers who PAY TO SEE HIS OPPONENT, NOT LITTLE JUNIOR."
People paid to see only Judah..?
But Judah was never on a P.P.V before..
if you Say Judah was superstar before the Mayweather Fight how..??
Because What exactly makes Judah a superstar or a big name? that was his first PPV and he had done nothing before that to prove he was a major draw.
There are only a handful of true superstars in the sport. DLH, Trinidad, Hopkins, Jones. Mayweather , and Pacquiao
Judah is and was nowhere near that level before and After. Would a superstar take $100k to fight Cory Spinks fighting in his own backyard..?
Mayweather was the Draw
"FACT"
People paid to see only Baldomir..?
Baldomir's only previous U.S. exposure came in his January upset of Judah to win the welterweight title and his July knockout of Gatti in his first defense.
So people Paid to see a fighter who only fought in the U.S 2 times...???
You know this is Bull****...and a opinion shared by haters
Mayweather was the Draw
"FACT"
People Paid to see only Gatti..??
That was both of their First P.P.V
Before they met , neither Arturo Gatti nor Floyd Mayweather had ever headlined a pay-per-view event. Nevertheless, the bout did an impressive 360,000 buys, generating $15.3 million in PPV revenue. With those numbers, Gatti and Mayweather join Oscar De La Hoya and Felix Trinidad as non-heavyweights who have the star power to carry a pay-per-view event.
How did Gatti's next P.P.V do..????
NEVER HAD ANOTHER P.P.V
Mayweather and Gatti was the Draw
"FACT"
People paid to see only De La Hoya..??
Oscar vs. Big Names Not Name Mayweather:
Felix Trinidad (9/99) 1.4 million buys = $71.4 million in PPV revenue
Shane Mosley II (9/03) 950,000 buys = $48.4 million in PPV revenue
Bernard Hopkins (9/04) 1 million buys = $56.0 million in PPV revenue
Ricardo Mayorga (5/06) 875,000 buys = $43.8 million in PPV revenue
Oscar vs. Mayweather 2.15 Million Buys = 120 million
I dont even need to explain this one...Because if Oscar could of sold this many P.P.V by himself he would of did before he turn 34...
and against way more popular fighters than Floyd...
Mayweather was half the reason this fight did so good..
Because if Oscar was Past his Prime Like everybody says...
Then it is no way in hell a past his prime fighter can sell 2.15 million P.P.V at $49.95 by himself
Because he would of did it before in his prime...
"FACT"
People only paid to see Hatton
Hatton only had 3 fights in the U.S before the Floyd Fight None in which were on P.P.V..?? None that had a live gate of over 5 million dollars...
Floyd vs. Hatton 850,000 in the US alone = $47 million in PPV revenue
The highest tally ever for a PPV boxing match that did not feature a heavyweight fighter such as Mike Tyson or Evander Holyfield, or a Latino fighter like Oscar De La Hoya.
facts:
This fight was the highest-grossing PPV fight ever that didn't feature a heavyweight or Oscar.
Floyd vs. Hatton Combined = 2.5 Million buys just to throw that in there...
"FACT"
Your whole Post was your personal Feelings about Floyd and provided very little substance or "FACTS"
You are what I like to called
The "Passionally Uninformed.."Last edited by Horus; 03-28-2008, 02:03 PM.
