    Did the FMJ-PAC fight do more harm than good for the sport?

    All I've heard on TV, radio, Internet and in person has been people ripping the fight to shreds. All eyes were on the sport this past Saturday and they blew it. What a damn shame.

        It definitely didn't do good

        Casuals make up 99.9% of the viewing public and they thought it was boring

        I see ppv and viewing figures to take a dip

          Destroyed boxing. Doubt any PPV does over 1 mil in a while. So many people are talking about how **** that fight was and how MMA is better smh. we need the heavyweights to come back

            But PAC and may still will remain biggest 2 attractions in sport until they retire

            When they retire, there will be no ppv stars that can fight anybody in top 10 and sell over 500k buys

            And a lot of so called "hardcore" fans that frequent the boxing forums will no longer follow the sport

            It'll be me, Hanz, mike d and BeerBro of the remaining pac tards and fl0mos in the RBR threads

              that night both fighters only concern was themselves and their family no one else, they couldnt care less about the sport or the fans, the locker room interview with Floyd set things up when he said he doesn't love or watch the sport anymore its just business for him, and pacquaio's collecting a check to fund his presidency run he's not what he once was

              on that bright side i hope this does away with ppv for awhile

                Presuming they don't rematch, Mayweather's and pacquaios next fights definitely won't do a million homes

                  Floyd didnt even have to throw alot of punches to beat pacman, and still schooled pac worse than anybody recently.

                  Only ppl who dont know **** about boxing would call it "boring" and whine and complain
