    dont get me wrong...the buzz in boxing is strong right now but what happens when you take PAC out of the equation...is the floyd hype machine strong enough to keep it going?
    Meh.
    Floyd will simply call out dela Hoya again ... and save boxing!!!

      that's what im afraid of...Floyd would talk up a storm, get people interested then go out and potshot

      we might lose fans that way

        when PAC goes, im not sure Floyd can carry the torch...we might even see a decline
        Right, but don't forget that the Golden Boy was still around then.

          It's a tight race, but I think "bhopreign has sex with donkeys" may pull it out.

              i dunno man he was creating alot of buzz for the JMM fight. after all, it did do 1 mill. casual fans bring out the big numbers. and all of us on boxing scene can ***** about how boring his style is but the casual fans dont see it that way, they see it as the celebrity name floyd mayweather is fighting so lets order it.

                      Lets be fair i think Floyd is a big star but is there really anyone outside of Pac who stands a chance vs him? Mosley is too old imo, who else? there is no stars coming up

                      I think after these 2 go big loss for boxing

                      Lets say If you turn the question around who does Pac really face which is a big fight? Mosley.. no one else really comes to mind right now
