I asked a casual fan if he likes Mayweather. You won't believe what he had to say.

    Mainstream fans buy May's ppvs hoping he loses. He himself isn't really a household name the way DLH or Tyson or whatever were. He is just the guy to beat in an age of very big PPVs.

        Your friend is right. No one wants to see a guy run and not take out the other guy. The only casual fans that like Mayweather like his personality or luxurious lifestyle. I can't stand Mayweather as a fighter either and I'm not a casual.

            "What?"

            I reiterated.

            "Floyd Mayweather."

            "Nah," he told me. "Nah. I'm like Mike Tyson. Power. I grew up watching Tyson."

            "He was a good, strong brawler," I said. "But how come you don't like Mayweather?"

            My buddy explained, "Because he doesn't get knockouts. The guy is all tired, and he doesn't take him out. Make it worth the sixty bucks, c'mon."

            Looking a little befuddled, he added.

            "I mean, he's good. He moves."

            I said "Ah, okay."

            ...

            So there you have it, fellas. That's what a casual boxing fan thinks of Money Mayweather.

            He said it from an unbiased perspective. It's an interesting insight. Someone from the outside seeing it for what it is. All of us on this site are fanboys (to different degrees) and have biasness.

            Still butt hurt that he schooled your boxer? Just get over it. Just accept the fact that May is a better boxer than him. No need to hate another boxer just because he beat your boy. Better luck next time if there is another one.

            I myself have asked casual boxing fans and many "hate" May, not because he does not knock out opponents but because he shames his opponents, makes them look like amateurs for most of the duration of the fight. At least, in the Maidana fight, it was competitive for the 1st 6 rds, thanks in part to the cut incurred by May in the 4th. Else, the charade would have ended right there and the schooling begins.

              Funny that's how I think exactly like your co worker back when The PPV draw was knocks out not some Pretty face Delahoya or Cherry Picker Mayweather no wonder why the young go to MMA

                So what if he would have said "I love Mayweather, his defensiveness, his speed, his ring generalship. However, I hate fighters like Tyson or Stevenson or Chaves, all the do is use pure aggression and power to win fights and I hate that". Would you still say he's a casual fan?

                    you need at least 30 people as sample size in order to make a hypothesis of how casual fans think you dummy.
