Is there anything wrong with letting a fight marinate?

    I think if the marination is more than a year its wrong. It sort of puts divisions on hold sometimes and can kill momentum. I'd rather just see the big fight/the best fight and then move onto the next one. That's how rivalries are created and everyone is able to test themselves at their peaks. There's always big fights and good fights. Not a fan of trying to make it bigger and bigger personally.

      floyd and manny damn near quadrupled what they would've made in 2010.. so it worked wonders for them. BUT both manny n floyd had already established HOF resumes and were constantly fighting the best available. the marinate of the fight was a tactic on both sides. and both sides won.

      “We had six years of teasing the public,” Arum told Bloomberg Business on the week of the fight. “You couldn’t buy the publicity.”

          How can you even compare Spence and Thurman to Mayweather-Pacquiao?? Neither are even hall of fame worthy at all right now..this would be like letting Mayweather-Corrales marinate or Pacquiao-Barrera marinade...These are fights you have to take to determine your worth

            You heard Floyd's own words he wanted to concentrate on Armando, and take years away from boxing.


            Maybe Chris Hansen to ask Floyd to take a seat.

                floyd didn't want the fight. it was never about testing. pac should have called his bluff earlier like freddie was saying but floyd killed it with the 40 million flat offer. that was proof right there. the big talk was fan service

                  So that gave Floyd the right to go into hiding for 5 years?


                  Always an excuse.

                  Do you like all cowards or just Floyd?
