    I agree. Main stream fans who ordered "the world awaits" were very dissapointed least the ones I know....that fight did not ad any fans to the sport.
    not to mention the fans that got up and left during the championship rounds in his fight w/Baldo..

    Floyd although being very highly skilled..isnt always highly entertaining.

          I'm not gonna name names or anything. But there's a kid in NY right now that's gonna explode. IMO, bigger than any prospect out there. But he's not even pro yet.

            Do you think De la hoya vs. Pacquaio will do better than Mayweather vs. Hatton???

              This is why Floyd is what Boxing Needs right Now....because he brings
              Conversation, History, and a whole lot of Drama...

              SOMEBODY tell me, he wouldnt bring a audience to network TV
              talking like this...and then backing it up with the Status he has...and a fight with a well known name..
