    Floyd and Manny both carried the sport after Oscar left. They're are the only two that can be categorized as popular sports figures not just popular boxers.

    If Floyd wants sole credit for making a lasting impact in boxing, he needs to use the CBS/Showtime deal as a platform to market the sport. It makes too much sense for them to have a big boxing event on CBS for free. This would attract many different demographics and bring some much needed positive attention to the sport.

      All I know is that Margarito got beat up and knocked out, Pac was knocked unconscious by one shot, and it happened to him more than once, and that Brandon Rios got outboxed. Floyd has stayed undefeated. I don't know about carrying the sport. I just know that the guys who some thought could beat Floyd...all got ktfo! Matthysse lost, Maidana lost, and now GG is overrated. Floyd is still on top. Does my answer have a point? Floyd through it all is still undefeated.

        cheaper tickets? 3 ways to watch the fight(movie theather,buying it at home and of course attending the fight) plus bar's and clubs showing the fight.

        now do you think alvarez vs trout got that kinda of attention it only did a million on free tv for christ sakes.

          Its called cherry-picking since 2004


          Yes floyd has super-skills but if you constantly fight the top guys instead of always fighting the top names, he would get beat...

          All fighters get beat if you fight top level guys in their prime.. Floyd's resume after 130, is very thin with top level guys in their prime....

          Sven ottke, chris john, joe calzaghe are undefeated champs too, floyd just the american version

            so are chris john and paul spadafora. 3 all time greats. what an era. all they had to do was not fight the best and they became the best. being the best by default. i sure hope more fighters do that! sugar ray leonard was a bafoon. all he had to do was wait until benitez, duran, hearns, and hagler lost. he would would have been great without taking any punishment. what an idiot!

                  What is your purpose in life besides sucking off floyd and being in denial about his ducking and dodging? Do you do anything else?

                      This butthurt flowmo can't leave my name out his mouth.

                      ******est comment, you pop up in more Floyd and Pacquiao threads than anyone else, you and a few other flowmos are always the first to reply to threads concerning Pac or Floyd.

                      What do you guys do for a living?
