i would say malignaggi is the one pumping this thing out to full bonerism.

Floyds just happy he's not out there having to make a spectacle of himself to hype a fight. Dudes out riding horses n ****

I actually sold this fight

Duh? You're suppose to. Nobody even heard of you until Mayweather plus you're making 10x the money you're worth. That's right, dance boy!

Good post.

Who sold the Floyd vs Manny fight?

I am pretty sure Mayweather is happy Connor is concerned about carrying the vibrant energy of the promotion. I don't think Floyd would want it any other way.

Floyd isn't concerned with 1-up'ing Connor in promotion. He's just out there doing his job to hype the fight so it can make as much money as possible and focused simply on winning the way he always does. I am sure he's happy Connor can sell the fight because Mayweather's money is based on his hard work and skills, but also the desire for detractors to want to see him lose. The more Connor speaks, the more his supporters want to see Connor beat Floyd. The more PPV buys, hype, movie theater ticket, etc sales. More in Floyd's pocket.

That 50-0 means something to Floyd...for design purposes...it's a lot more appealing to design merchandise and create website URL's based on TBE50. TBE49 doesn't feel complete...

The biggest event it what makes Floyd happy. TBE50 is more of a celebration for him and Connor is the hype party planner.
