    Does Floyd Mayweather Jr make a mockery of this sport?

    The way he talks **** before fights but doesn't really deliver any entertainment. He talks more **** then a prime Mike Tyson, yet atleast a prime Mike Tyson was entertaining.

    No He does not. To sell a fight one should always be the bad guy. He fits the role perfectly. Boxing is only not about knockouts.

      You don't need knockouts to be entertaining... That is far from what I am saying. Maybe if I smoked crack then I'd enjoy a boring running around the ring backwards and pot-shoting and barely even have a workrate and just to get the win so he can put more money in his pocket without trying to make any excitement in the ring.

        Is this wrestling or boxing?

        Characters aren't needed in an actual sport. For sports entertainment, yea,

        but boxing is an actual sport that isn't scripted.

          Little Floyd is just a nigg@ with a loud mouth. He makes himself look bad.

            Well, I guess Muhammad Ali also made a mockery of this sport. He dissed everyone under the sun, even the greats before him.

            going by your rational, of course.

              Ali atleast had a workrate and made fights entertaining to some extent. Mayweathers workrate is next to nothing, he just does enough to get the win and not try to excite the fans. So terrible comparison from your part. When a guy barely throws punches and seems to go into every boxing match as survival mode, its lame. Floyd fights as if he is always fighting against a lion in that ring, and he goes so defensive he forgets that the fans love to see offense.

                Funny how people who don't like Floyd sum up all his fights into one. He has 25 KO's in 39 fights. More than half.

                And in my opinion his only boring fight was against Baldomir the Oscar fight was a chessmatch.

                  Funny how the people he ko'd were 25 bums, and still he fought as cautious as if he was fighting against a lion. Bringing up his kos is kind of cheap that is like if I brag about Calzaghe getting tkos over bums aswell. The only fight that he ever had which was truly entertaining was the one sided beatdown he gave to gatti.
