    If floyd loses, how much do you think his stock would go down??? Discuss

    IMO i dont think he would be such a draw

    I dont think he could ask for so much of the fight purse since he wouldnt be undefeated no more.

    I dont think he would duck so many people after his first lost

    He'd still be a big name in the sport.

    But his haters would have a field day.

      In the eyes of those who despise him? Enron down.

        It really depends on how he loses, now, doesn't it?
        I mean, if he goes all out like he did in round 11 of the first Castillo fight, and goes down swinging then he'll get more respect.

        If he fights Pacquiao's fight and hurts him but in turn gets knocked down or out, then he actually fought and got ultimately beat. Ain't no shame in that.

        If he runs all night and gets beat by decision, or worse, knockout....well, then he'll look like **** and will have been humiliated as well.

        And here's another one still....
        In a way, Floyd was correct in saying that he's in a no win situation. If he wins on the defensive angle, picking shots and avoiding punches, then it will be seen as a typical "on the bicycle, chicken-**** win".

          I'm not sure. A large part of his marketability is his percieved invincibility so it will definitely hurt him in that sense.

          I don't think it would have a major impact on his legacy aside from the fact that it would conclusively prove that Pacquiao is the greater boxer.

              a lot.

              the styles matchups and physical matchups favor floyd tbh.

                  Win or lose after this fight, Floyd's 41 fights will never be in the same league as Pacquiao's 56 fights in seven weight divisions

                    floyd's 40 fights are worse than pacquiao's last 3 fights
