i agree. a ton of floyd rejects are going to pack up and leave after pac demolishes floyd's face with a barrage of straight lefts. it will be a good day on boxingscene.

no more haymon/floyd rejects, no more urban thugs and wannabe urban thugs.

pac going to turn that "0" into a "1" and that coward floyd knows it.

I can't disagree.

Look what happened to other fighters.

Broner had tons of fans before he lost his O, now everybody all of a sudden want to pretend they were never a Broner fan.

Look at other legends, Tyson, Jones both seen a huge decline in fan bases once they took that first L.

Tyson still had a hardcore fan base after his first L, but boy was the hype never at that level again.

We'll be left with the real boxing fans, and that's a good thing.


Anyhow, I still don't believe fight happens and longer this goes on the worse it is for Top Rank/HBO/GBP since they want to claim the May 2nd date for Cotto-Canelo.

I agree, if this fight is gonna be made, it's gonna have to be made quickly.

I never really thought this fight was gonna happen this soon either way, I thought if it was gonna happen it would be Mayweather last bout of his showtime contract.

Womp. Womp.



Because they're simple as hell.

as opposed to what? blindly agreeing with floyd mayweather?

having a bias so deeply embedded that it leads to the defense of al haymon? floyd fans were so biased they thought salka - garcia was OK



if you're siding with mayweather or pacquiao consistently, you are doing it wrong, and a fanboy.

It wasn't even just a statement regarding Mayweather or Manny, actually. Which is why I only highlighted a sentence of his text. I did so because it was about Boxingscene in general. The levels of ******ity are ridiculously high around here. They were high even before those two were supposed to fight, but it has definitely reached new heights.

Espinoza has never sounded like he wanted the fight to happen and he's basically working for Al, so...

I'd personally be kinda worried about what happens to the boxing fan base if Pacquiao or Mayweather loses.

We already know that a LARGE amount of Pacquiao's fanbase disappeared after the Marquez KO, I mean just look at the amount of Pac fanboys on this website, before it was easily 10-15 notable ones, now at most it's 3-5.

I think on May 3rd, BoxingScene is going to see alot less traffic due to some users never signing on again.

that's a good thing

Let's be honest, None of us here really know what's going on. Just all speculation. We'll all have to wait and see.

This fight ain't happening and I for one am glad.
