It seems Floyd getting hit and being made to actually fight has raised his stock

    I understand you guys are consumed with PPV numbers. You never think about anything other than Floyd's next PPV earnings. I still don't have any clue why it means so much to you.

    Titles like "raised his stock..." hehe...

      when you're forced into a fight because your legs are starting to go like Floyd, his stock really doesn't go up.

      He might sell a lil more just because people want to see him lose and he's losing his legs and getting older so it might happen
      Not directed at you. But the bold is the some the dumbest ***** talked about daily on here. So you gonna line a persons pockets just to see them lose and so far 43 times all those people who paid to see him lose actually turn out to be the losers. Whether they bought tickets or all of his ppv fights. What they lost the most and can never get back is the time invested in watching someone they want to lose always win. They should be ashamed of themselves for being that dumb.

          My god people.....his legs weret same as the Mosley and Ortiz fights. The only difference is while Ortiz cut the ring off a few times and kept him on the ropes a few times, Miguel cut the ring off a lot and forced him on those ropes, and actually tried to do work in the ropes.

          He was the same as the Mosley/Ortiz fights, and proved he can box and move, keeping the fight in the middle, the first 4 rounds against Cotto.

            ....out of all the people that I regularly watch PPV fights with, i'm the only 1 that actually wants to see Floyd win.

            most just buy it or pitch in as an excuse to drink and throw a party.....
            and if Floyd loses or gets knocked out... it's a plus
            that was the sentiment with the Ortiz and Cotto fights anyway

              When Floyd boxes, it is beautiful to watch for us purists. When he mixes up his game though, gets a little dirty, he will get more and more fans. You have to admit, Floyd getting aggressive and walking down these young lions is amazing. Nobody from this point on can question his strength and toughness. He has the best all around game in the past 25-30 years.

                  Floyd's legs were the same as the Mosley and Ortiz fights, and pretty much the same as the Marquez fight. Floyd lost some speed during his first layoff, between the Hatton and Marquez fights.

                  Why you d**k ride anything Mexican related, and I like Mexican fighters, is beyond me. You do it almost everytime you post here. It's as bad as HUGH GRANT jocking anything Pacquiao related.
