Comments Thread For: Mayweather Continues To Be The Centerpiece of Boxing

[keyz3r0]

I'm curious. I'm a fan of Floyd's. But honestly, I don't give a rat's left ass cheek about what he does outside of the two hours a year he's in the ring fighting. Why do folks that don't like him spend so much time, even to the point that they're almost on a crusade to discredit everything he does in and outta the ring? Do I think Floyd is a jackass outta the ring? All indications point to yes. If the opportunity presented itself to hang out with Floyd, would I accept? Probably not. Do I think he's destined to go broke and end up alone? Yes. Do I care? Not a bit. For me, when Floyd is finished with boxing or boxing is finished with him. He will join a list that includes the likes of Sweet Pea, Tyson, Toney, Jones, and many others. Great fighters that I enjoyed watching and have fond memories of. But for the most part they're outta sight outta mind.

I agree with this comment

you make an excellent point,gotta admit,though...sometimes its entertaining to read the posts,the never ending arguing cracks me up.

yep...as long as he keeps boxing relative with his outta ring antics i don't mind.

Most of the Floyd haters on here are pure f.uckin' idiots and not even real boxing fans. There's a few that don't like Floyd, but aren't fanatical about it and are real fight fans. But they are few and far between. Honestly, the level of legitimate boxing conversations on this site have gotten so pathetic. I'm usually really bored when I decide to post. I mean, how many times can you debate "Floyd's a coward, ducker, p.ussy, etc?" Probably explains why that red bar that I loved next to my handle is gone. Haven't been engaging the freaks as much ya know.

Mayweather the high school w h o r e

Mayweather is like the smart, beautiful talented high school
w h o r e. Years after graduation the only thing everyone remembers is she was just the high school w h o r e. Nobody will remember the other stuff. His punk azz running his mouth like the little beech he is has ruined his legacy. Punk azz beech.

[QUOTE=hitking;14778508]Most of the Floyd haters on here are pure f.uckin' idiots and not even real boxing fans. The onesthat don't legitimately like Floyd, are real fight fans. They are sick of the foul mouthed ****** sop****ric behavior and amateur boxing style. FIGHTING IS THE NAME OF THE GAME. ENGAGING IS THE NAME OF THE GAME. Honestly, the level of legitimate boxing conversations on this site have gotten so pathetic with the butt huggers of Fruad and lately Lara. I'm usually really bored when I decide to post. I mean, how many times can you debate "Floyd's a coward, ducker, p.ussy, etc?" ALL THE TIME BECAUSE HE IS A PUNK AZ CHICKEN sheet GUTTERMINDED SPOILED BRAT.

Young man, let me point out his PPV numbers correspond intimately with his opponent.
The majority of Frauds fans don't pay for the PPV. People watch Fraud, not because of his jaw dropping talent or sleep inducing style, but to see him get his azz beat. Period. FRAUD is not the draw. It is his opponents fans that drive the numbers.. DO NOT FORGET THIS.

Good post until the last part I left in. If you had a chance to meet and hang with Floyd for a day you wouldn't do it? Of course you would and be geeked as hell to do if. So would everyone of his haters on here. They'd meet him then not have the balls to say one thing that they spew on here to his face.

This article is a good example of exactly what the writer at Deadspin is talking about.

This is where you expose yourself as a new fan of the sport. Go back and check all the non-heavyweight PPV numbers over the years. New fans of the sport tend to think what Floyd and Manny have been doing is par for the course. Oscar was kinda the first non-heavyweight PPV star of my time as a fight fan. And Floyd is dwarfing what he did. Boxing is in a good place. And in terms of drawing power. Floyd may end "TBE" in that particular category.

PPV was a lot less common then. Every "big fight" was not a PPV event in those days.

Assuming makes an ass out of you, you don't know me. I'm 35 and I'm Puerto Rican so boxing has been a part of my life since I was born.. Hell I even have cousins in the pros. What your saying about heavyweight's is irrelevant to my comment that boxing's PPV numbers here in the states have been in decline recently. It's a fact, no need to get butthurt about it.

Canelo vs Floyd did good at the box office... Wack fights get wack PPV #s
