Bringing up the MMA kills your arguekent though. Boxing and UFC both have over a million fans and are the top two combat sports in the world. Their will always be a thirst for watching pro fighters fight. And seeing as boxong does just as good if not better then mma on tv it will not die.
Floyd thrives off people paying to watch him lose. Because to be honest hed be in rigo shoes without his personality. Before he became this bad boy arum was saying the same crap about floyd he is about rigo not being able to sell until he talked crap.Comment

At ww maybe, but he had power and was stopping people at his natural weight class. And really, if every time you step in the ring you win, people are gonna want to see you fight. You don't need a triple digit iq to realize that.Bringing up the MMA kills your arguekent though. Boxing and UFC both have over a million fans and are the top two combat sports in the world.

They were all welterweight fights they got big off of when they were monsters in the lower weight classes. Chavez was really the last great lower weight cash cow because he was a mexican legend. Oscar got big off destroying him.
Whitaker kept winning and hes greater then Floyd IMO and he was never as big a cash cow as Manny or Floyd.
Oscar made Floyd a crossover mainstream success and after that Floyds mouth has down the rest. He talks so much crap people want to see him lose Its not rocket science. And even his last fight with Guerrero wasnt as successful as everybody thought he needs a great opponent to make him great. its simple math.
