    Floyd's talent is well respected. The image he uses to sell fights by getting people to hate him enough to want to see him lose, isn't.

      Ok we get it, you dont like Mayweather! He's a brash, arrogant jerk who happens to be more popular than Vitali. Vitali is everything a champion should be but that doesnt always translate to fan popularity. It seems like you brought this article up to show how much of a better person/fighter Vitali is than Mayweather, point taken.

      Doesnt change the fact that Vitali couldnt sell a PPV which is also the mark of a great fighter, yet Mayweather just took part in 1 million plus PPV buys. You guys make him look like a marketing wiz because you keep dropping his name every other second. Now Vitali cant even enjoy a victory without you haters bring up Mayweather, their not even in the same ****ing divsion, its apples and oranges.

            How much of a cut do you get from PPV sales of boxers?

            Huh?
            What?

            Nothing?

            So, what does another mans money have to do with you?

                  Vitali's opponent was closer to his size, was undefeated, and actually posed a threat, Floyd's did not. Floyd's opponent shouldn't have been fighting in his weight division, he only came up to get a payday lol
