    No. That's like saying NBA would be better without Kobe. Mayweather brings attention to the sport.

I know Manny is very suspect but the others he had no excuse to not fight when they were knocking on his door. Instead he fought, oscar who was shot, ricky hatton, and not to mention baldomir (club fighter)

      If and when floyd retires which he will soon, I believe boxing will be better! You have fighters like bradley and the 140 who all want to fight the to prove they are champs. Also We will get a huge star from who ever wins the super six. Do any of you agree??
      I totally agree! He has a major influence on the game right now. All this "this is a business" talk to avoid fighters and everyone worrying about ppv numbers and the fans thinking a boxers is washed up after one loss...its crazy

        If bob would have gave him the money he asked for we wouldn't be having this convo. We would be talking about how Floyd is greater then ray Lenard.

            Fight Cotto and Marg for $16 mil guarantee
            Fight Baldo and ODH for $33 mill guarantee
            First time i'm seeing this question, but ok.

            How about this. Fight Pac the midget for $50mil, or take a vacation for $0mil?

              You still wont answer the question. And I beleive you have because I sent you a personal email last time to remind you not to duck it.

              Just tell me what you would do please?

                Floyds the draw, all roads lead to Floyd Mayweather.

                Floyd aint gonna fight at manny-weight, he calls the shots. To Mayweather Pac is just another opponent.

                    Love him or hate him, Floyd brings attention to the sport. People can nit pick about his choice of opponents the last several years, but there's no doubt he's still one of the most gifted fighters in our era.

                    More than anything, people wanna see Floyd humbled.
