People need to understand Boxing is a business.

[Dick Buffman]

Floyds grossly overpaid.

Its too bad HBO is too ******/corrupt to realize it.

That is the best reason in the world to them because that means their profits are up.

What they make is their issue and I don't care about that, what I do care about is getting the fights I want.

I wouldn't pay for a Big Mac when I ordered a Subway sandwich and I won't pay for some **** fight I didn't want to see because some diva didn't want to agree to some term and as a result I couldn't get the fight I wanted.

If everybody united in a strike and boycotted these PPV's and reduced those numbers down to 200k for both Pac & Mayweather, they would get the message.

As it stand, both of em' can brag selling 800k to 1million or more PPV's by fighting somebody that nobody was calling for.

Exactly. Its good for the fighters, but its bad for the fans. As a fan I care about what is good for the fans, not for the fighters. They could cut their pay checks in half and they'd still be making a lot more money than I am so excuse me if I don't like the business aspect of boxing.

I wish Marquez vs. Diaz sold more PPV's than Mayweather and Pacquiao's upcoming ppv's to show them to man the **** up and fight each other.

So Flyod being a coward is an excuse now bec. he going for easy win, instead of fighiting Pac, Williams or Martinez?

I am not saying you have to like it, I just want people to understand why the sport is run the way it is because all boxing is is independent entrepreneurs trying to make a profit. They do not care about the fans experience or the future of the sport as long as they made their money their fine.

I think we all understand why it is run the way it is. The majority of us just don't like it.

That is very true and its what makes boxing the most poorly run sport in the world, its really frustrating as a fan.

Its also the reason why Mosley/Mora will be a PPV even though neither of them deserve to be, because Shane wants too much money and no network is willing to pay him what he wants.

Exactly because Golden Boy has in its contract that Sugar Shane is guaranteed so much money when he fights and no network was willing to pay that.
