In this weak era of boxing when the joke JCC jr. is a champion , and 40-year-old Mayweather /50-year-old Klitschko are the superstars > this fight sadly stays meaningful , even in 2015
Each superstar has trilogy with fighters who don't have chance , keep defeating them and people keep paying money
people are hungry to real boxing and real champions
What is he doing that so special lol. How is "HE" making the fight closer to happening. Fight was close a bunch of time but didnt happen.
Yes, the fight has lost A LOT of momentum and steam, but it would still be the biggest fight in a long, long time. It would definitely generate so much buzz for boxing, it's not even funny.
It's still a huge fight. Pac is coming off what should have been a win over a Top 10 P4P unbeaten fighter. Floyd is coming off a solid wide decision win over Cotto at 154 lbs. Both are still two of the top fighters in the sport. Leonard and Hagler weren't in their absolute prime either. It's still as big as that fight, it's just not like "Fight of the Century" level that it was in 2010.
The winner would still be cemented as the best of their era.
I'd like to see Floyd take a Bradley fight in November/December, Pacquiao in April/May, Martinez in November/December, Alvarez in May 2014.
Enough already with the little girl act. ''oh i dont care anymore''. Yes the fight is happening about 3 years after it should have but hey, if the fight happens even now you can guarentee people like you who claim you dont care anymore would pay for the PPV and watch it.
It's not a little girl act it's the right reaction to have when the fight doesn't mean much anymore. Would I still watch it? Yes, because I'm a fan of both fighters, I like to watch them fight even if the fight itself is pointless. If I watched Pac vs Mosley of course I'm gonna watch Pac vs Floyd.
The real question is : If I was running boxing for a day and I could make one fight happen, would it be this fight? Hell no. Even if I could make 5 fights happen it wouldn't be among my choices.
Matter of fact I'm gonna start a thread like this and y'all see how many times Pac vs Floyd comes up.
Nobody cares about this fight, it has lost it's buzz.
*Master thread has 500 pages of posts*
I feel you....but on the real, the same dudes be posting in that thread....the master thread was made so the kids can have their own playground...seperate away from us adults who really can't stomach the negoiation table bs....or the schoolyard gang name calling....most of the dudes who post in the master thread think Pac and Floyd are top 10 ATG's
as for me...like I said, if they fight I won't miss it..if not, oh well...didn't care for the winner anyway
LOL @ people saying no one cares about this fight anymore.
Sure, most of US are tired of hearing about it, but you can bet your ass if this thing gets signed, it's going to curb stomp every possible record (ppv, revenue, etc.).
I agree.... And like most people, I'm extremely disappointed by the fact that this fight, if it ever happens, will be 3 years late. But to say no one cares is ridiculous. If the fight were signed tomorrow, everyone who said they don't care anymore would suddenly care again.
