    This has nothing to do with DUCKING fighters, Sam Watson basically cleared up why the guy who said Floyd doesn't fight N!$$gas is because of money and fanbase. They jokingly said they would be the only ones showing up.
    ok, thanks for clearing it up

      Tbh Floyd will do a cool million, regardless of the opponent. That's just were he is at, this point in his career.
      But take into consideration that Mosley had a fanbase and was known with Americans from his wins over Oscar, and he just came off a huge win against Margarito.

      Also Floyd PPV with Guerrero didn't sell well under 1 million, so having a Mexican American doesn't always do well.

      I think he needs to have a name fighter to be honest. I don't think he could do big numbers against another Guerrero type fighter like Devon Alexander the only one I can see Floyd doing good numbers with is Tim Bradley even though Bradley basically has no fanbase but a handful it could sell because Bradley beat Pacquiao and Marquez and both are undefeated top p4p guys the two best at 147.

                I'm sure he's wetting his bed and in shivers at the thought of Bradley.

                    Im not a big Floyd fan, but this thing about Floyd needing a opponent to draw is reaching. Yes its a much bigger fight to have two big named fighters fight each other, but less not pretend that Floyd not a draw. With the death of the american heavyweight division, guess where that american market that use to go to Holyfield and Tyson went? To put it simply, Floyd is treated as the heavyweight champion of the world. Thats why he put numbers up.

                      Because fans don't want to see Mayweather lose to another Black Fighter they would much rather see him lose to either a Mexican Fighter or someone else but him losing to another Black Fighter does absolutely nothing for most people...Let Just Be Honest!

                      And this is why it is great chance Mayweather will retire Undefeated because of this mentality. Even the suggestion of Bradley vs Mayweather already got people being all negative about it even though Bradley is more deserving then any of the other fighters in and around 147 and even 154 he just Slaughtered what was suppose to be the "BEST" at 154

                      So instead we will get Mayweather vs Khan which will be a Joke, after then if Victor Ortiz can defeat Carlos Molina, Mayweather will go back to 154 and fight Victor again in September 2014. After that it is only 2 Fights Left On His Deal with Showtime, I think Danny Garcia will be one of those eventually.

                      But your sending Hyenas One by One to get Slaughtered by a ***in Male Lion and after one get Slaughtered then the Rest of the Hyenas are looking around at each other like "OK Who Is Going Next"

                      It takes another Male Lion to dethrone a Male Lion and take over his PRIDE! Stop Feeding Mayweather Hyenas and we get stuck watching a One-Sided Mainevent after Spending a lot of money his PPV's
                      Best post in this thread.

                      But if that's what the fans want give in to them. In the meantime, just enjoy these last 4 boxing exhibitions and laugh at them when the event turns out to be a 119-109 schooling.
