    Ok times are different. The best fighters used to fight on basic cable. People think they're smart saying stuff like fight on MLK day or 4th of July. Boxing isn't important to America, Mexicans are the biggest demographic it's pretty simple. And The nation doesnt even celebrate and party MLK day. It's called maximizing profits for the 100 time. It's smart to have a ppv with a bunch of drunk Mexicans instead of Christmas Eve. Pretty simple

      So what you really mean is, is that Floyd needs a gimmick? Yes, we know. He can't sell **** on his own. He's no Tyson or Oscar.

        Oscar couldn't sell on his own either.

        Neither could Tyson other than the McNeeley fight and that was solely because it was his first fight back from prison.

          Lol can't sell on his own? Your hate for Floyd is blinding you. Why is it so hard for people to jut be straight up on this site? Hatton was in December and did about a million. Pretty sure Floyd has the top 2 most bought fights all time

            Mayweather is all about maximizing profits except for when it comes to Manny Pacquiao. In that case he has minimal interest in maximizing profits and reasons that he can fight against a dud instead to make a ton of money.

                Because if he did, then you'll just make another thread about why hes fighting on "american independence day" and not another day.

                "Why is Floyd fighting on Saturday? I bet he couldn't sell on Sunday...."
                "Why is Floyd fighting at 10 o'clock? I bet he couldn't sell at 5 o'clock..."

                Just shut the **** up and get another person to hate on...

                  Same can be said for pacquiao ... "Why does pacquiao chose not to fight on the biggest boxing dates of the year, if he's recognized as the "biggest worldwide draw" in the sport"?

                    Oscar couldn't sell on his own? He was doing over 300,000 with unknowns in an Era that had no internet, no 24/7 while black boxes were everywhere.

                      So he went from 2 mil, to 900k. Over 50% loss. How is that good?
