    3rd understand the real issue is not Mayweather himself, but the myth he and most African American athletes represent.

      I think you're wrong about his "mastery of the game". He's a good, careful fighter, but to me, not outstanding , except with his mouth, whose utterances beggar description. But he gets that honestly, his father is exactly the same.

      I mainly remember Mayweather fights for his Augustus fight, which was really an underappreciated top class fight all round, for BOTH of them. His 1st Castillo fight put his "feet to the fire" and he barely came through. Like many, I thought Castillo was robbed, but I thought that Mayweather narrowly won the second fight which lacked the fire on Castillo's part that the first fight had..

      I recall VIVIDLY, SEVERAL times guys like Larry Merchant, actually chatting during a Mayweather fight, describing the "stunk out arena" three-quarters empty, and how people were getting up and walking out whilst the fight was actually on.

      I think Merchant actually said that he didn't know ANY other undefeated fighter who left the boxing goers so cold towards him, and put his unpopularity down to the fact that his style was so unexciting, and safety first, that people just were "turned off". I KNOW I heard Merchant talking about it more than once.

      Now MY question is, since he more or less fights the very same way, except more so, and even more safety first, how has he become suddenly so wonderful that he can ask for millions and have rabid, drooling, sub-normal fans by the thousands. Could he have done it just with his ridiculous unbelieveable mouthings which appeal to a definite low-level mob? I can't think of anything else.

      HOW ???

                  You know that a"moron" is really only slightly below "low-normal_ I.Q. which is from 90 to about 105- 110. A moron is from about 80-90 on the I.Q. scale.

                  Believe it or not, an "idiot", which doesn't sound nearly as "juicy" as "moron" is up to 25, and not capable of even feeding himself.

                  Idiot is the lowest on the I.Q.scale. Pity it became so overused that people don't realise what it actually means, that when they call people morons or cretins, they really mean "idiots".

                    Put it this way NC, if he was some Colombian or South African fighter, I'm fairly sure you wouldn't take time out to watch him fight purely on the basis of his boxing.

                    I appreciate you're a fan (as well as a hardcore boxing fan) and that's cool but to the neutral, his fights are in the main mostly not entertaining.
