What's with the notion that we should root for Floyd just because he's a boxer?

        It doesn't really matter who anyone roots for. It's going to be a 12-0 shutout with Floyd "winning, while making the most money and taking the least amount of punishment"


        He tells you what he is going to do before every fight and people continue to:

        1. Buy into the hype
        2. Purchase the fight in hopes it's a war
        3. Watch a 12-0 uneventful shutout
        4. Cry that Floyd does nothing but run and hold


        Rinse and repeat

          All I know if that Pretty Boy Floyd loses, its his own doing, he wouldnt be humiliated if he lost to a boxer, but to lose to this guy? smh
          MMA deserves to supersede boxing, they've been much better for their fans, they don't BS around with fights, no 'marinating', delaying fights, overpaying fighters, overpriced ppvs etc.

            To be fair 12-0 is a disappointment, with the disparity in skill he should knock Connor out.

            And imo Connor is the major winner here, I don't think he minds an ass whooping for 100mill, I mean who wouldn't? lol.

                Floyd hasn't had a legitimate stoppage since 2007. I wouldn't be surprised to see this go the distance. Tough, iron chinned bums go the distance with blue chip prospects all the time.

                  Conor has people parroting that boxing is "half a fight" and isn't real fighting. As a boxing fan, I'd love to see old, fragile Floyd put a hurting on Conor to shut these clowns up.

                    I agree, and if you notice when you type in youtube these MMA fans channels none of them are racist or bring up racism, its sad when I type in Pacuqao on youtube all the videos are these race bias black floyd fans laughing and hating on him and being victims and bring up race, no wonder boxing is dying when people search they see these racists idiots videos.

                    Why cant it just be about sports, The floyd fan influx destroyed boxing, it sucks too, everything is racism this and that and hating on non blacks calling them frauds or bums in retaliation for the criticism Floyd gets.

                      It doesn't matter.

                      It would still make our sport a laughing stock.

                      You'd be happy about that for some reason.
