Which is why HBO is BEGGING Floyd to come back and booted the carnival huckster act. They don't care who Floyd fights and they sure as hell don't care about Manny.
The media is slowly growing tired of making a joke out of themselves trying to defend Manny's "picks" and how "great" he is. It's starting to get old with the general public.
The fans: hardcore, casual, and NON fans of Floyd's WILL tune in to his next fight and it'll blow the puppet show to Singapore. Like it or not.

The general public doesn't have even the slightest clue about who Floyd Mayweather Jr. is. People know Mayweather more because he appeared on a wrestling show than they do because he's a boxer.
I know that people like to inflate Mayweather to this larger than life thing, and maybe if this were the 50's he'd do that, but he has literally nothing to offer that the world hasn't seen before, which is why if you mention boxing to anyone that doesn't frequent these sites and forums - you know, the general public - it will be the name Manny Pacquiao first, second, and last.
The only time they'll even say the last name Mayweather is with a quick follow up of - oh yeah, that guy who is ducking Pacquiao.

The general public mentions Manny: "oh the guy who is afraid of blood tests? He's on steroids."
Floyd just consistantly get's higher PPV's than Pac. The general public must confuse all of Floyd's opponents thinking they are Manny.
Maybe they think Floyd is Manny and tune in to watch Floyd's fights more by mistake?
The world hasn't seen a more complete boxer, the blueprint of boxing such as Floyd. Manny's not even a rough draft.
The travelling huckster act is about to get booted overseas shortly.
