Why Do People Claim 'Mayweather is boring'?

[SWEETSCIENCE100]

to each their own. Im a die hard boxing fan. A boxer myself. And i still dont care for chess matches. Styles make fights...you cant say a real boxing fan has to appreciate all styles. That your opinion only not all of other fans and die hards. Some get into this sport for the blood and guts of it some dont. Ive been told by gym peers that they like to get hit...and some dont like it at all and choose defense...which goes to certain style. A style i see as boring to watch!

Those that like to get hit are idiots, because getting hit means cuts,bruises,gashes,broken ribs,damage kidneys and livers, bumbs and lumps on the head and in the end it adds up to being ko'ed with a short career to match. So if a short punishing career is what your looking for as a fighter, you must be the dumbest fighter ever!

When was the last time Floyd gave fans an exciting fight?

Be honest.

Nobody wants to pay ppv dollars for a sucker punch or against past prime or out of division no hopers.

Even in fights where floyd scores a ko, the fight itself stinks because of mayweather's running style.

You mean his style where his landed punches double that of his opponants?

Mayweather is far from boring, It is a thing of beauty to see the boxing skills he displays every time he laces them up.

Mayweather is a boxing artist and on May 5th he's about to paint another one of his master pieces.

Honestly, I don't get it.

It's shocking, that a lot of the, so called boxing fans, constantly say "Mayweather's boring to watch".

I mean, personally, I think he makes boxing look beautiful.

Is a KO all they want to see?

Nothing more spectacular than a perfectly timed counter imo.

Floyd has been in heaps of entertaining fights. Any boxing fan who says he is boring just doesn't like the man personally.

[check hook]

He is involved in boring fights, well he used to be, because he insisted in running backwards around the ring pitty-pattying.

He doesn't have the legs for that any more however, and now he has to stand in front of his opponent. His fights are more entertaining as a result, I'm looking forward to Mayweather v Cotto.

- Judah
- Mitchell
- Augustus
- Castillo 1 (when he went inside)
- Hernandez (he was inside and outside)
- Corrales
- Ndou
- Jesus Chavez (awesome fight)


All before he (supposedly) lost his legs. Me thinks you are just jumping on the misinformed hater bandwagon.

Or maybe it was this one, where he Ko'd Hatton whilst "running" backwards:

& none of those fighters are true hall of famers or prime.

NO! I dont think so. Cotto is a warrior. He beats up opponents Manny is from all direction non stop throwing and moving.

Floyd Pot shots and waits to counter. little flurries here and there. It works just like the Klitz brothers. And they get hated on too got lack luster. Styles are inquired taste from person to person...

I dont see him waiting for counters. He waits for openings and mistakes most of the times. Yes he counter punches also but thats not all he does.

Mayweather vs Marquez, boring?
Are you serious?

That was his best performance. Even casual fans were clamoring over that one.

Too bad he needed to fight a blown up midget...

[Canelo Phresh]

theyre ufc fans or theyre not smart enough to understand counter punching and ring generalship are what makes up the sweet science.

his best performance? is english your second language?
is that a typo?

**only casual fans were clamoring over that one


the only thing that fight showed was that marquez has no business in there with a real WW
and that floyd cant stop a blown up LW (former career FW,)
