Not at all. In fact, it will be a wonderful day for boxing when Mayweather and Pacquiao retire. The sooner, the better.

Thats what people said when Mayweather retired.
Someone else by the name of Pacquiao carried boxing. All his fights were exciting, had the world going nuts.
Everyone knows the name Pacquiao
Mayweather comes back and brings back all the bs with him and taints the sport.

Just look at espn.com for USA. Boxing isn't a regular category on the nav bar. It's in the "more sports".

The sooner Mayweather and Pacquiao retires, the better. That's why fans need to laser focus on other worthy fights and start talking less and less about May and Pac. There were many memorable fights that didn't involve the two. Showtime as you can see is too focused on Mayweather. As a result the other fights they're making are not what fans want. Perhaps they would do well when Mayweather disappears. Can't wait.

No. Boxing is one of the oldest sport, it caters to one of the most fundamental instinct of human being which is "Aggression". Fans will find a way to bestow another cash cow.

If Boxing could survive the lost of Ali & Iron Mike(The two biggest athletes in sports history) it can survive the lost of Floyd & Manny.

Edit: I didn't really mean exactly 'Dead' what I meant was would it take a huge step back & lose a lot of viewers also hide in the shadows for some while when these 2 would retire? and the growing popularity of other Combat sports really fears me to think so.
I'm a huge hardcore fan that buys all PPVs but didn't buy Pacs last two and won't be buying his next.
