      If Mayweather is as great as he has been claiming, he would generate views even on dooms day.

      Stop making excuses.

        Could you imagine Lebron James having a doc done on him on network tv? That **** would be in commercials nightly for a month.

        The ****** fucking boxing promoters will never learn. Plus they don't care. Too money hungry to improve the sport.
        If Mayweather is as great as he has been claiming, he will generate views even with a little help from Hal Riney & Publicis.

        Stop making excuses.

          The mayweather docs are over done. If there hadn't been 200 docs about him already people might actually still be interested

            In the article: "The figure is great in boxing circles, but a laughable figure in the world of prime-time coverage."

            I wonder what part of it is hard for you to get.

                I would watch Harry Potter even on episode 201.

                  As a dedicated boxing fan I watch it all, even with streams. But my DVR could only do so much. Had it recording the HBO and Showtimes at the same time and still had to watch NBA playoffs. So i just decided that May was going to lose this one. And yeah I don't think it was promotated that good. Its almost like watching a tyson doc, you feel like you watched it all, what new story can they bring up. I will be looking for it on youtube though.

                      If Mayweather is as great as he has been claiming, he would generate views even if Ron Johnson of JCPenny was the one made the plans overnight.
