    He's the perfect storm
    1. Arrogant d!ck who people want to see get ko'd
    2. Love him or hate him he's the generations best
    3. Fights guys with good followings
    4. Fights on important dates
    5. He's got a pretty good sob story about growing up when he tells it
    6. He's not just a boxer but a brand

      there's so many worthless scum who make alts here and pretend to be a fan of either fighter that the line has become extremely blurry.

      i've come across a ****load of pactards in real life though and they're just as obnoxious and clueless about the sport as they are in here and everywhere around the internet. guys who lean towards mayweather tend to talk boxing more from my experience. i can't say i've met a "philthy rich money team 24/7 flomo" type floyd fan in real life though. i'd probably have to go to the suburbs.

            I buy his fights in the chance that I might witness him lose. It'd be a HUGE sports story if he ever lost. It'd be one of those events where people ask, "Do you remember where you were when Mayweather lost..!?"

                -He beat and dominated a superstar in ODLH after everyone thought he'd lose helping his popularity.

                -He walked out with 50 Cent who at the time was one of the most famous celebrities in America, 50 also introduced him to the youth of America as well, pretty much all of the hip hop fans. This lead to Mayweather being on MTV, being referenced in songs etc. This fight also got huge ratings as well.


                -He took on the role of the villain with his legendary trash talking especially against guys like Hatton. His 0 is also highly attractive, people want to see this guy lose badly.

                  Because he is a anoying litttel prick that dossent deserve the skills he have.

                  Who the hell likes a fighter that openly says he dossent give a **** about legacy,pride,or the fans, the only thing he cares about is milking the sport for as much $$$ as possible.

                  There is nothing wrong about being rich or wanting to be rich, but floyd is something else, he likes nothing more then to flount his money and expenvis ugly bling bling cars in faces of the fans that payed for it all.

                  And what dos he give us back? sucker punching ****ing Ortiz, and avoid every meanningfull fight the fans want to see.

                  He is a great fighter but a serious anoying littel ****er that many people would love to see get knocked out so a more deserving fighter gest the spotlight and money.

                  Imagin what Sergio martinez would do it he had all the founds floyd have ?, he would try a change the world for the better.
                  While floyd is just a greedy,deluded littel anoying ****

                    He's the biggest star in boxing inside and outside of the ring.. that's about it.

                    Whether it's people who want to see him win or lose.. Watch greatness upfold.. Watch a boxing clinic about to be dealt.. Watch him hit the canvas.. Everybody wants to watch Floyd..

                      alot of ppl do watch to see him lose but he has lots of fans too. floyd is one of the most popular fighters in the world in addition to being the most disliked and the most well known. not hard to see why lots of ppl watch his fights.

                      btw why would you hold the ortiz incident against floyd? floyd did what he should nobody can argue with that. ortiz was the only one being unproffessional and acting a fool, floyd put an end to the farce. a moment even mayweathers haters should appreciate him for.
