Is Floyd a bigger star than Mike Tyson ever was?

You just invalidated your own argument.

Every single person in the philippines knows who mayweather is because of pacquiao

I don't live in the UK, but I'm guessing on top of having a boxing culture, everyone knows who mayweather is because of hatton.

Every person who's a boxing fan appreciates mayweather's skills and every fight fan knows who mayweather is.

yuh i think he means at a point in time. hes saying he wasnt known during his career until late on.

tyson was know early on, at 21.

Money was often confused with roger mayweather abroad, until late defining fights in his 30s.

Nope, many people know Hatton, but show them a picture of Mayweather and they won't have a clue, just like they won't know who Cotto is.


You know Pacquiao is a celeb in his home country, adverts, movies, singing, he is a senator, they are people who don't follow or don't like boxing who know who he is.


If I showed a picture to 50 of my colleagues at work, less than 5 will be able to name him.

Over 40 will be able to name Tyson.

The Undertaker is more recognizable than Floyd even now.

Mayweather is not a crossover athlete.

Even some fans who go to fights won't know who he is.

Lmao.... U really made this to insult...try to insult me.

When i never said that you clown

Mayweather built PPV sales on a platform that Tyson created. He's the beneficiary. For example, whoever is Apple's owner now might make more money than Steve Jobs and live longer. They will never surpass Jobs in name recognition.

apple is publically traded. Aint nobody making more off apple now because he owned 1/3 from the 1970s.

His estate gets his share. There is no "apple owner"

cant believe i have to explain this

Pretty much. Now you get a bunch of f@gs venting their anger that Floyd surpassed whichever dude they like.

Dude made like twice as much as Tyson so they have to find a way to hate on it.

The thread was about if Floyd came back would he be the Aside vs Canelo.

U start talking shyt, saying Floyd barely a A-side, sooo since u couldnt back up that BS u was saying. U start asking me who was bigger between Tyson...

Which had zero to do with the topic or what we was debating.

Like a ****** kid losing an argument.... But But But Tyson was bigger...

Yes idiot Ali, Tyson are bigger than Floyd.

Now back to that ****** ass comment u made about Floyd barely being the A-side when he was active???

No, they just don't know him.

Many fans go to boxing for a good night out drinking watch some fights and then go out to the clubs, they are not interested in the fighters just a good tear up.

Floyd's boxing does not capture the imagination.

You did not need to be a boxing fan to be drawn in by Tyson's brutality.

Prince Naseem Hamed at his peak was probably bigger than Floyd Mayweather.
