    this right here! a pac rematch will still out do all those fights. but some how pac rematch doesnt make any sense. LOL

      Sugar Ray Robinson was 131-1 at one point. 49-0 looks like **** compared to that even if it is undefeated

        awww. Still trying to justify May vs Pac rematch?

        To surreal illustration of crickets when you ask industry to write about, "hey, how about a Floyd vs Pac rematch!?"

          I don't know man...maybe because floyd beat more champions, or made more $, or took less punishment....you know the typical tbe stuff

            lol good point.

            Not even 1 professional boxing fight.

            McGregor has zero.

              Bigdramashow, i agree with the Thurman comment you made. His fights with Porter and Danny got him some exposure and i think there were more than 3 million viewers of the Garcia fight. I think a PPV with Thurman and Floyd would easily do close to 1 million buys, maybe more. I don't think Floyd would do it though, Thurman is too dangerous but he does have a fanbase.

                Thats bull**** dude. 87-0 is 87-0 no matter what happens. If Floyd does get 50-0 then fine, but it shouldnt me celebrated like its a first time accomplishment

                  Ali fought a pro wrestler and got his ass kicked. Funny how everyone forgets about that.

                    This thread about Manny vs Floyd rematch alone did 11,000 views in 3 days. And these Fl0mos say there isn't any buzz lol

                    When McGregor Floyd threads can hardly reach 2k lol
