    Dude, I think instead of turning casual fans to hardcore fans it might go the other way around.

      And you're entitled to think that.

      I'm not saying casual fans will turn into hardcore fans. Maybe they'll do what they've been doing for year and years.... Remain casual fans. People have paid to see Mayweather lose for years now. No reason to believe it's going to stop now.

        Just because they are paying to see a guy lose doesn't necessarily mean that what Floyd does is good for the sport.

          I never said it was good for the sport. I said it wasn't going to single handidly destroy boxing.

          People are a bit too sensitive about anything Mayweather does. It's comical.

            Also, if people are watching the fights, I don't see how that's anything other than good.

            I guess I just don't get how so many people can be "fans" of such a violent sport, yet be such pansies about such simple ****.

            "Yeah, sure he's a good fighter... But outside the ring, he's a real meanie head"

              The Mayweathers' are just bad influence and destroys the essence of boxing as a gentlemen's sport.
