    Did Floyd scar boxing permanently?

    With all the money Floyd made, did he ruin the sport? With all the rumors going around about GGG turning down 10 mil and Chavez Jr being offered 5 mil turning it down, Jacobs asking for millions for GGG, Broner asking for too much for Pac, whether those things are true or not, has Floyd inflated these guys worth? Or what they think their worth?


    Not too many of these fighters are even known around the world and they want millions like Floyd made but they can barely sell. Thoughts?

    He ruined it but not for the reasons you mentioned.

    But yeah, most fighters have a ******ed expectation of their worth, especially the Haymon guys.

        The disease started long before Mayweather was a star but he is its most prominent symptom.

          Not blaming anybody but i'm trying to figure out why guys are turning down millions to fight guys that they say they can beat. Where does it come from? Inflated worth, or being a ****? Its one or the other

            Promoters scarred the sport not Floyd. This includes Haymon. It doesnt matter wether you consider him a promoter or not.

            EDIT: Actually, sanctioning bodies too.

            EDIT: Might as well throw networks in there too.

                Yes, he is the worst thing to ever happen to boxing, followed by Al Haymon

                now everybody wants to get paid millions for fighting chumps

                who in their right mind would give anyone 30 million for playing tag with bums like Berto and Guerrero

                  Everything bad that happens in the world is Floyd's fault
                  Obviously

                    They've gotten so obsessed since May 2nd they blame everything on Floyd. He has consumed their lives.
