    Put it like this, we throw fight parties all the time. During the fights the music is off. By rd 8, the music was on and half the people there stopped watching the fight. What does that tell you. Me I'm a junkie so I watched but I kinda got bored watching it too. Wasn't nothing happening that didn't already happen in the previous 8 rds.

      Boring to watch and has been for a long while now. I didnt stay up to watch the fight and turned it off after 3 rounds the next day.

          I enjoy watching his fights so yes to the question but no to spending $70 on his fights I did last weekend because my friend paid for half but I don't think i will be in the future

            I couldn't click either an outright yes or no with that question.

            A $70 PPV is quite alot, I think at times when he is fighting someone who is game and up for it and giving some problems then yes he is worth it, or if the fight style of his opponent caters to making a entertaining fight.

            I would say for sure the PPV with Robert Guerrero wasn't that good.

            Sometimes Mayweather can be a good watch other times not, you have to take into consideration If you spend however much for watching him fight you should atleast be endeared with some entertainment value, luckily the Mares vs Daniel Ponce De Leon was a co-main event.

            In short watching a one sided fight isn't always the most entertaining thing to watch.

                  I've been entertained by Mayweather fights before. But his last fight between Guerrero was just not competitive. If it's not going to be competitive and there is limited action it's not very entertaining. And yes you can appreciate his skills but we've already seen his skills on display before. If you've been watching him for a while a fight like his last one isn't going to do it.

                  Actually having anticipated that I watched on a stream after having purchased most of his previous fights.

                    I know he made an excuse about hurting his hand, but he's not wearing any cast and he says he'll fight again in September.

                    Do you think it's wise to pay $70 for a Floyd Mayweather PPV?.
                    he can be exciting at times....

                    if pure boxing is your cup of team which it is for me, i do appreciate watching mayweather fight
