    will you still be as big a fan?

    Or..

    Will you drop him?

    How will you react?

    Does the manner in which he loses have a major effect?

    Quits, KO'd , points

    Just wondering, try and be honest.
    no actually, when "untouchables" who are considered "cherry pickers" are finally 'exposed' and/or loss they actually go on to get even more fans and their fans like them even more, it's a phenomenon I like to call the Roy Jones effect. The 'untouchable' in question becomes mortal in their eyes and if humble in their loss the fans end up liking them even more so if anything Floyd's stock would rise but he won't lose so there's no point talking about it he's going to beat Pacquiao as easily as he beat JMM.

          Depends on what he says. If he is gracious in defeat then I will have no problem with him losing Pacquiao is an exceptional fighter there is no shame losing at this level.

          If he is ungracious in defeat then I will be dissappointed.

No shame in dropping to greatness.
            a lost for floyd hurts his legacy far more than it hurts mannys/

                Fans of Floyd will give credit where its due and still be fans. *****'s will make every excuse known to man, and than some. Lot of solid fans of Floyd here. To bad they're drown out by the nuthuggers.
