Floyd shows the reason why he isn't a cross over star.

[-Kev-]

What are you talking about cross over star? When casual sports fans think about boxing, they think about either Ali, Tyson, Mayweather or Pacquiao. Let alone casual boxing fans.

I hope you didn't mean "Floyd shows why he isn't a cross dressing star" like Oscar De La Hoya

My Point Exactly!!! You see this **** even with the young black fighters, guys like Paul Williams get over looked, he is a good guy, Timothy Bradley is a very classy guy he don't get much love either, Tyson changed the landscape for Black Fighters for the BAD even ESPN doing a 30 for 30 thing about the relationship between Mike Tyson and Tupac, seems like for Black Fighters you basically have to be the BAD GUY and you have to get the Hip Hop Community behind you to become a star in boxing

and I don't want to here about the style BS because even the Black fighters who do stand and fight like Paul Williams still get disrespected and overlooked, MOSLEY got over looked and Mosley always had that "MEXICAN WARRIOR STYLE" and was still got overlooked so clearly it takes more then just style in ring for a black fighter to become a star, not only that but I also think Promoters and Networks are shifting to International Guys who do have entire Countries behind them because they feel they can make more money that way and they are probably right

i agree....

Bingo. Bradley was a GREAT example.

Ey bro were right. No one will debate it though.

[Tyson.]

Floyd has a personanlity unlike DLH.

Floyd wouldnt make more money being some media phoney.

bradley paul williams winky wright are not crossover stars because they havent fought anybody as famous as oscar like floyd & pac did. winky's boring defensive style also doesnt help his cause & the same goes for bradley.

What about Shane Mosley who was the first guy to decively beat Oscar (in an outstanding fight I may add)?

That really turned him into a huge star~

[mushahadeen]

He has the good looks

That's kinda gay.

What about Shane Mosley who was the first guy to decively beat Oscar?

that's easy. what did shane do after beating oscar?

lose twice to winky wright. then what did he do after losing to winky wright?

pac & floyd took advantage of their oscar lottery ticket. they kept winning, & in pac's case, in spectacular exciting fashion that captivates the fans & media.

That's kinda gay.

His nickname was Pretty Boy~ he certainly doesn't look like Shrek~
