    He's a freak of nature, I love watching him. PPl expect too much, remember this is a real sport not pro-wrestling.

      He's not boring to me. I like watching a boxer at work. At the end of his career he won't be messed up. Why stand in front of a brawler like Baldomir who is bigger and stronger than you, when you can box him all night.

          I pretty much agree.

          but Floyd CAN be exciting to watch.I liked his performance in the judah fight as a recent example.But saturdays fight wasnt particularly engaging,and the opposition was subpar,so was it a boring fight? Yes IMO

            Yeah I loved the judah fight, it was so satisfying b/c I hate judah so much. I actually find myself being entertained by boxers more and more now. I love watching Winky fight, people say he's boring but I have fun watching him fight.

                Because in his recent fights above 135, he has chosen fights with highly predictable outcomes. For example, someone asked me who I thought was going to win in the Baldo/Floyd fight, I already knew Mayweather was going to school him. Hoped for a knockout, but predictably it went 12. I think the most suspenseful fight he has been in lately was againts Judah. Floyd is a very skilled fighter and it is fun to watch him fight, till the point that it becomes redudant for 12 rounds all in his favor or he beats another fighter no one gives a chance of winning againts him anyway. I hope this DLH fight comes thru. Floyd hasn't faced anyone like DLH. I wouldn't mind seeing him againts sugar shane, Margarito, Hatton, or other guys that would give his mouth a run for its money.

                  To me Mayweather isn't boring to watch at all.

                    A win is a win. Wether it wasn't impressive or not it was a win.

                    Not all fight are suppose to look incredible... ****ing KO's all the time and ****. I mean Baldimor is slow. But everyone knows that he can take a punch. Throw a 25 pound weight at his jaw the man will still stand.

                      o

                      Mayweather is'nt a boring fighter, he's an artist inside the ring. i like he style but i think that he need to prove more than he did. Oscar de la Hoya, no more options for the pretty boy.
