Are people STILL going to deny Floyd is a business genius after what he pulled off?

    Floyd is a good business man, but Conor is an even better businessman. 4 years ago Conor was broke, living paycheck to paycheck in the UFC. 4 years later he's mentioned in Forbes and is about to make $100M... and he's only 28.

      Of course the Mayweather nuthuggers are going to celebrate an idiotic mismatch and BRAG about it taking buys from one of the biggest fights in boxing. What kind of boxing fans is happy about this fight taking away from Golovkin-Alvarez?

      Y'all people need a hobby or something. Caring this much about a man's finances who isn't related to you is unhealthy. Especially considering this is a boxing site.

        any poster that said mayweather and bad boxer in the same sentence is an idiot.

        the truth is he is even better as a fighter than he is as a buisnessman

          Yep. He retired young, got financially broke, sneak in and out of the ring fighting once a year, aroused curiosity, people wanted to see him lose, all worked for him unintentionally. Nothing to do at all with being genius.

            Mayweather is great at branding. He knows how to market his fights. What he does goes beyond boxing.
            You don't have to be a fan or supporter to recognize this about him. We all know this fight will be a spectacle but this will be the topic of conversation for the next 2 or 3 months.

            Imagine if Ward/Kovalev had this type of hype.

              Again, I'm not about to trawl through hundreds of posts, but I've seen them.
              Since you bothered to make a thread like this, yeah, I assume you're a nerdy dude keeping detailed lists of every anti-Mayweather post on NSB. You probably scream at them while staring at your Money Mayweather poster and jerking off to the Baldomir fight.

                  Unfortunately, too many fighters and their fans hate on him for this instead of understanding that you need to generate fan interest at all costs.

                    Yeah you don't have to explain that to me. Floyd is the best of our generation for a reason.

                      This just proves Floyd fans aren't boxing fans. Why celebrate this farce and be happy that it could have an adverse effect on a legitimate mega fight? You're a tool.
