    Why can't ESPN get over Floyd Mayweather Vs Manny Pacquiao?



    ESPN.com, Skip Bayless and Stephen A Smith, still keep talking about the Pacquiao fights, it seems that everyone else has let it go, boxing fans, HBO, Boxing Gurus.

    Why is ESPN so interested in the May Vs Pac fight still, everyone knows Mayweather gets no credit for beating Manny Pacquiao now.

        Because they've never heard of any other fighter.

        When Skip and Stephen A. talked about Robert Guerrero's trash talk, they both admitted they've never watched Guerrero fight, yet proceeded to discuss whether he had a chance or not. ****ing embarrassing.

          People seem to forget Pacquiao has more fans in the USA and also the whole World than Mayweather has. People want to see Pacquiao come back because he gives great fights and thats why people love him. Mayweather only has the Black community behind him and I always see on FB them asking Mayweather for money and to help them out. Yeah that's right they only like Mayweather because their poor and they think there's a chance he will give them some money.

            Boxing being discussed on ESPN, excluding FNF, is pretty much irrelevant in my opinion.

                    Simple. It's a topic that appeals to the general sport public. Casual fans don't give a **** about most of the guys this forum has wet dreams over
