    He's set up his undefeated record as his biggest selling point and it works. People pay to watch his fights for the chance to see him lose. Once he has a loss, watch him even make anywhere near 300k buys on PPV without a decent dance partner.

        i doubt it......even if Mayweather lost to Mosley, Pacquiao vs Mayweather will easily do 3 mill

          If Floyd does lose that 0, I bet he'll rematch and whoop Mosley from pillar to post just to prove he is the greatest of this era. Then he'll clean out Pac and the entire welterweight division. Then Floyd will say, "I want to challenge myself," and then he'll go to 154 and whoop everyone's ass there with pure mastery.

          I'm not saying that I want Floyd to lose but if he loses that 0, Floyd has nothing to lose and it makes him a more dangerous fighter.

          But again, this is if Floyd loses that 0 and Floyd has never lost.

                As long as he goes out and does his best, there's no shame IF he loses to the better fighter that night

                  Losing the '0' will make him a better fighter, at least in terms to watch. Once that zero is gone, providing he don't retire. I believe it will make the guy less conservative in the ring and much more offensive. He will have less to lose and more to prove.

                    Depends how he loses, decision or by being knocked out.

                      Thing is, if it was any other boxer I'd say it wouldn't really matter. But Floyd's built much of his career on his 0 to the degree that the first time he loses, a large part of his 'appeal' (that being the appeal of people watching to see him fail) is gone. Which leaves... what? How many of his fans will stick around to watch him once that aura of invincibility is gone? I honestly don't know and it'd be interesting to know. Jones still has a lot of fans, but then he'd also lost early in his career (albeit controversially), so it's very possible that Floyd will remain a top draw for years to come. Will also be intersting to see how Floyd mentally copes with defeat. Will he go into denial and blank it from his mind? Will it destroy his confidence for ever more? At best it will humble him and make him a fighter more willing to take chances and mix it up, a more fan friendly fighter both inside and outside the ring. At worst, he becomes Evander Holyfield.
