Huh, you measure fight success my money you don't get
You mean the fight that was universally panned as a disaster in all financial value. That fight sold like Coke, but everyone left feeling ripped off.
This is exactly why people don't like boxer like they were see too. Filling 80,000 people stadiums was nothing.
Floyd/Manny was a perfect storm, but after the outcome, it'll never happen again. Everyone waited so long, but it turned out that it truly did come too late.
So if your manny/Floyd, or their team, sure the money was great.
For everyone else, the fight came too late. Manny was past his ability to make it competitive. If we're using that fight as proof other fights should wait, it's a flawed system.
It's only a matter of time before Canelo is exposed, whether it be the refusal to fight guys his own size or someone will beat him once he faces a good fighter.
