    I'm not paying $70 to watch Floyd run and potshot a career Super Featherweight. Floyd can keep his garbage ass performance. When a REAL fighter has the other fighter dominated he goes in for the kill specially if their opponent is completely overmatched. Floyd didn't even try to stop him.. he was content with running and stealing our money.

    His fight against Guerrero reminded me of his joke of a fight against Baldomir.

      Some fights he is and in some he's not. $70+tax and running in a fight makes me glad I didn't pay for it.

        No, not based on his last fight.

        Boxing was doing really well for a couple of months then along came Mayweather with his cherrypick Guerrero stinking the joint out.

        Still, we can forget about that and watch Matthysse v Peterson and Froch v Kessler in the coming weeks.

          That depends what kind of boxing fan you are. If you love wars then you probably won't find him exciting. Me personally, I am a balanced fan of boxing so I love it all. But I will always love a skilled boxer with accuracy then a slugger/brawler.

            On a few occasions he has been. Very few. For the kind of money he makes he's so far from "exciting" it's outrageous.

              True. My buddies and I were okay with all the fights that were being shown for the past months without this Guerrero/Mayweather fight.

              Looking forward to the Mathysse vs Peterson fight.

                cherrypicker was more exciting when he came forward and was aggressive... not that he's reverted to getting on his bike, unless he fights someone that has at least a 30% chance of beating him, his ppv numbers will go down even more

                  i bought his last fight because i had some friends comin over to chip in. we were about 8 ppl, by round7 most were not following the fight anymore. sure they were sitting there watching but were talking some other stuff. i think i was the only one who watched it closely till the end.

                  floyd's last fight against cotto was exciting and we all thought we're going to see a similar fight, but mehhh... fun to watch for purists though.

                      a turtle racing a snail is more exciting than a floyd fight
