    How many feel like the Pacquiao/Mayweather hype has completely died down?

    back in december everyone wanted to see this... with all the blood testing negotiations being done to death in the last six months

    now we've seen both fight since then... pacquiao unable to knockout clottey, mayweather showing us he can get hurt

    anyone losing complete interest?

      Nah, it's only just brewing. If they announce it within the coming months, the hype will reach fever pitch and we'll seen 100 times more topics on it than before.

        It has died down a bit but it will come back if it ever gets signed. The media will shove it down peoples throats.

          He was getting too good, the pinoy mafia had him wacked. That's why floyd stays strapped and has 5 body guards.

              I havent lost interest but I've lost hope. I'm not going to sit around thinking or worring about it. Boxing and life will go on whether it happens or not. But what happened in their previous fights has no impact on how I feel about it.

                Yes, it has completely died down. My friends that casually watch the sport with me really don't care that much about it and I don't care about it at all. If it gets signed, I'll buy it and I think most will watch but I don't think it will do as well as it would of done last year. At one time it seemed like this fight could go over Oscar/Mayweather, now I don't think it even goes over 2 million. Boxing continues to shoot its self in the foot by waiting for every big fight to pan out. Instead of risking things, fights that are hot need to be made when they are hot.

                    it has a bit.

                    it's just getting ridiculous between these two now

                    and people arguing about the same things in BS is getting old.

                    but if they sign the fight,

                    people here would be going crazy.

                    there are many other fights/fighters out there though, so it's cool.
