Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Reacts To Lower Than Expected Turnout at O2 Arena

[Manic Shot]

No explanation needed, do another exhibition next month and collect money. How's your hand?

Pathetic excuse.

Announcing the fight and the tickets going on sale later gives people more chance to save up and treat themselves to the event

He is, and always been his 'best promoter'.
His ego is hurt, and he goes into 'spin doctor P. R. mode'.....for himself only.

If he showed the same attributes for the fighters that he promotes...or promoted, boxing would be in a little better position.

I'm shocked that no body was interested in an uncompetitive fight between an old fighter (Boring even during his prime) vs an unknown fighter.

Those who know Floyds con artist m.o. arent surprised at the excuses he offered up, and they are some world class excuses throwing the whole team under the bus, but look at the flip flopping Floyd boys.

Just a couple of days ago it was he's retired, can do what he wants because it's easy money and Yada ya, now it's give it up Floyd, he's old. You made enough money. Can't stay out the limelight, and Yada ya.

If the man wants to put on exhibitions against hapless opponents in empty arenas, let him do his thing

"The retired fight took party in another exhibition bout"

oh ok lol

It’s nothing to do with how long the tickets were on sale

tickets can sell out in minutes here, even at short notice if it’s an event people actually want to see.

All that’s happened here if they’ve booked an arena that’s too big and an opponent that’s not as well known as they probably expected. I’ve never heard of him. Tie that in with the face nobody really cares about watching a middle aged Mayweather, especially when the novelty value has worn off because he does exhibitions every few months.

They basically overestimated the popularity of everyone in involved.

Especially in the U.K. There is no excuse for doing poorly over there, they have a lot of spirited boxing fans. They know rubbish when they see it.

The novelty wore off a long time ago. i dont even know who the *** that MMA guy is. So he is expecting his name alone to carry it and we already seen him spar numerous bums. I think its been 2 japanese kickboxer guys, atleast 1 sparring partner, logan paul and now this guy and maybe another exhibition i cant remember. I only seen the logan paul one and the first japanese kickboxer one. I didnt even watch the replays of the others. Nobody cares anymore.

floyd u need a dance partner, even if it means a hard spar instead of a hop around the ring pretending to be a ring girl

[Brother Mouzone]

I mean Floyd laughing all the way to the bank, 10 mil guaranteed (at least)I would personally not give a F who was in attendance…These exhibitions are getting less and less promotion, had no clue it was happening until I checked the boxing schedule for the week .
