4 Mega Fights that will SAVE Boxing!!!!!!
Collapse

the only way any Mayweather fight will help save boxing is if he delivers what he promises. His fights get the most attention and the most scrutiny for overpromising and underdelivering. you can call that hate all you want but when people tune in expecting fireworks because all they have been sold is hype, hype, hype and "im gonna do this to him and ima gonna do that to him" and the opposite happens, that does nothing but hurt boxing. getting big PPV numbers doesnt mean its saving boxing, its the outcome that people got for their money that does. why is that so hard to understand?
we dont have to worry about that with Pacquiao and Cotto since they have the most fan friendly fight styles out of all of the ones listed there.
What you said isnt Hate at all, I quite agree with you.Comment

Boxing is already coming back. They mention it more on ESPN and alot of the fight results are on the front page of Yahoo and other pages. Its coming back. Wlad was even on a few late night talk shows (Conan and I think Leno) so that should tell you something. As far as these fights
1. Mayweather vs. Oscar - We already saw this fight and it let everyone down. Boring and no way it makes near the money the 2nd time. Casual fans dont give a **** about the Big Floyd vs Little Floyd drama.
2. Manny Pacqiou vs. Hatton - Pac is little and would get slaughtered. It would sell though.
3. Mayweather vs. Cotto - This fight does need to happen if Floyd continues to fight, but Cotto isnt exactly a household name for the casual fans. Still it should do pretty well.
4. David Haye vs, Klit - Wayyyyyyyyy too early to talk about this even being a fight. I think some people just hate seeing Wlad as the champ so bad that they convince themselves that everyone can beat him.Comment

1. We already saw this fight once and it ******
2. Not sure about this one being a great fight once it finally would get scheduled
3. Good fight if it could get made
4. Casual fans won't want to watch this and I'd probably regret it after it was over
Cotto-Margarito and Judah-Mosley (which is off) have gotten the most buzz among "casual fans" that I interact with and people who know I follow the sport keep asking who Pavlik is fighting next...Comment
