    That's a lot more that Floyd.
    floyd throws only arm punches that's why he has decent stamina
    he's boring to watch anyway
    calzaghe on the other hand, he ****s you in the ring.
    popkins got ****d, you'll never see that kind of **** from FLoyd

        Its very simple , Floyd is getting media attention in a very big way , Floyd is always mentioned in association with boxing ... the subliminal message is boxing , its word association and a marketing tool used by advertisers the world over , Floyd is good for boxing and people need to look at the big picture .

            by that statement you are therefore agreeing with what im saying. to say that what he's doing will bring in more business, more fans to the SPORT of boxing is ridiculously ignorant. When one says that, they obviously are implying the GENERAL SPORT of boxing and not just Floyd Mayweather. In order for a CASUAL MAINSTREAM fan to watch a Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight, they have to be left with a sense of drama and excitement that the FIGHT itself creates. Floyd Mayweather's style just doesnt produce that and the fact that he isnt putting himself in the ring with opponents who would bring the absolute best out of him isnt helping either. So how would these fans think to themselves, "Damn, that was a hell of a fight, I guess Ima watch OTHER fights as well!"

            it doesnt work that way. Floyd is only in the business of promoting Floyd. He is not in the business of promoting Boxing. He said it himself, "we dont fight to prove to the fans who the best." That statement there speaks VOLUMES on what his agenda is. Floyd does not care about Boxing which everyone already knows since he himself has declared many times. He wants to make as much money as possible and bounce. Simple as that.

              Oh yeah, I guess people like Emmanuel Steward and Jim Lampley don't know much about boxing. You being the elite super mega boxingscene analyst with like 15 green k's know so much more....

                He is keepingboxing in the mainstream eye. How does DLH do it? He hypes himse;f and no one else. that what SRL did and thats what Floyd is doing. Out of 4.8 million ppv boxing buys 3.5-3.7 cam from Floyd. No fighter hypes other people up ODL, Cotto, SRL, Tommy Hearns. They are all stars because they hype themselves up and get mainstream to by boxing fight, which brings other fighters, although they arent stars, to the general public. Without Floyd doing what he has done, tell me where boxing would be. tell me this what are Kelly P, ODL, Wlad, Pacman, and any other fighter doing to get mainstream fans interested in other fights? NOTHING. Come on dude with out Floyd boxing would be under UFC.

                  I actually have to defend Floyd this time. But who has Calzaghe beaten other than Hopkins and other past their prime fighters?

                  Strange you would like to see Floyd shaking his pelvis into a man behind f@got.

                    What fighter today or past promoted boxing? When Sugar RAy was popular he was on a box of Wheaties by himself, is that not hyping himself. Same with Roy and Tito and ODLH. They all hype themselves up. No one promotes ALL boxing. It's lie the NBA they promote MJ, Magic, Bird, Lebron, D Wade, etc. Why dont they hype up the last player on the bench? Because it's about promoting the stars. The NBA is a union and a league about teams. Boxing is about the individual.
