    Boxing pretty much revolves around one person now, Mayweather. Heavyweight division isnt even relevant anymore. And with any boxer from 130 up to 170 its just a matter of "can they beat Floyd." After every fight nobody is talking about the fight itself, people are talking about how would that person can do against floyd or floyd should fight this person and so on. evidence to this would be most of the threads on this website.

    Correction: Heavyweight boxing isn't relevant in the UNITED STATES anymore, because we don't have any champions. In Europe and the rest of the world heavyweight boxing is at its all-time greatest with the great klitschkos.

    People will be tuning in to watch Kessler-Froch II without giving Mayweather a single thought.

    If you bother to look, there's plenty of boxing outside Floyd.

    Only *****s(and some *******s) think Floyd 24/7.

    Why are you here then?, go watch UFC. By the way, don't worry about boxing, it will pretty much outlast you.

    It's sad. Something Floyd said being full of himself, just being cheeky, has now become reality:

    All roads lead to Floyd Mayweather.

    160: Golovkin beats Ishida: Floyd shook. Don't want none.
    154: Canelo beats Trout: Watch Floyd duck.
    147: The weight class Floyd actually campaigns in, coincidentally, the anti-Floyd fans have no one to mention.
    140: Matthysse beats Peterson: Matthysse KO's Floyd. Duckfeather will avoid.
    135: Floyd left 135 to avoid Miguel Vazquez
    130: Floyd would never fight a threat like Gamboa.
    126: Garcia vs Mares, winner becomes Floyd's mandatory, that he will duck.
    122: Rigondeaux better than Mayweather.

    When the one country that has historically dominated the HW division since it's very inception, all of a sudden stops contributing even good HW fighters, what the rest of the world wants to see as great is really not relevant, IMO.

    I like the Klits, but the talent level in the HW division, in comparison to it's historical level, just can't even be argued.

    Only Floyd gets **** for not fighting a middleweight while his prime was at 130 lbs.

    Well depends on what obssessed Floyd nuthuggers/haters you associate yourself with having most of your interactions with. Garcia/Lopez. Garcia/Mattsyee. Mares/Rigo maybe? All fights very interesting and have nothing to do with Floyd.
