Comments Thread For: Nacho: People Going Ticket Crazy Because of Pacquiao

[smoothsmg]

why can't mayweather worshipers accept the fact that people go to their idol's fights to see him lose? they dislike him that much. he's boring. dela hoya made him big. he ducked the rematch and other big fights by pulling a fake retirement in his prime without any injury. he sneaked in and out of the ring fighting once a year. of course, people wanting to see him lose became even stronger. you'd wonder why this boring, undeserving duck gets awarded millions of dollars.

So a man should have no say so over his career/life, he should just fight cause you want him to fight. He was boxing for 20 years almost when he took a break. No one knows how his body felt and whether he needed the rest, you are just upset for personal reasons. I dont see anyone talking about the 24 year old fighter who retired.

Those "fake retirements" seem to have helped rather than hinder his career because he's still on top and will be in likely the highest grossing fight for the 3rd time.

Most still forget that he beat Marquez after an almost two year layoff.

He's proven he can still win against top contenders and younger title holders after taking breaks of a year or more.

listen TBE stans. your idol is no tyson. fans celebrate when mike fights during his prime. they neither root for or against him. he's that huge. your idol is not that type. no defensive, boring boxer ever made it big. it's a conglomeration of factors that made him big. it started with dela hoya, then ducking the rematch, the fake retirements, the once a year fights, long vacations, it made him even bigger when people started associating him with the true star named pacquiao.

stop fooling yourselves. people are not that dumb.

I wonder if you think stuff out before you type. This boring defensive fighter is the highest paid athlete in sports, so i would say he has made it big. REAL BIG. I doubt "ducking" a rematch and retiring would make any fighter bigger.

im pretty sure nacho's wrong about this. most of the people paying 7-10k+ for a ticket arent watching it because of pacquiao or mayweather. it's just a big event and they want to be seen at it, most of them probably dont even watch boxing.

The most amazing thing about Floyd is that he's sold as well as he has being as boring as he is in the ring. Do people really care that much about him to pay to see him lose?

You nailed it buddy. Dead on.

People keep forking out money to hopefully see him get his ass kicked. At least, for the most part. He does also have a small group of fans that get off watching him use his advantages in every fight, such as superior speed, and reflexes. He hasn't fought a fighter yet who can match him in those two departments. I'm not sure anyone can either. Which is why he breezes through fights.

Judah may have actually exceed Floyd in speed nothing else though

Which is why Judah was mildly successful versus Floyd. He was able to keep up with him, for awhile.

However on top of Floyd being fast and and having superior speed, he also does everything as very well. So eventually the better well rounded boxer prevailed in Judah-Mayweather.

I always wondered how much better Judah could have been if we would just let his hands go... He waits, way too long.

What is the point of mentioning why a person buys a Floyd ppv?

Person A: likes Floyd as a fighter and wants to see him win so they pay $80 for the ppv.

Person B: doesn't like Floyd at all wants to see him lose so they pay $80 for the ppv.

Whether a person pays to see any fighter win or lose its the same got damn price so it makes no difference. Dumb to even brag about how more people pay to see Floyd lose when they are paying the same price as the people who want to see him win.

What do people get out of mentioning how many supposed people pay to see Floyd lose?

What actual bearing do it have on anything?

[Ruthless One]

The hatred for Floyd is serious. Even when he outsells Pac in almost every fight, the loons still thinking people are paying to see Pac.

Yeah, let's just watch Floyd fight himself Fight Club style. No one wants to watch Pac fight right?
