Actually I do think it was mostly DLH. Floyd wasn't as big back then. It was a good fight on paper but no denying DLH had the star power. Passing of the torch that night.
PPV buys are not a guarantee. Just because the A-side fighter has a huge followinf, doesn't mean he can just get in the ring with any bum, and expect a million buys. There has to be hype, there has to be a build up, and people have to believe that the opponent really has a chance to win. As Larry Merchant would say "Where's the drama"? Once you become a household name, a la De la hoya, Mayweather, Pacquiao, you can fight just about anyone, and still sell a lot of ppv's.(See Mayweather vs Guerrero, Pacquiao vs. Clottey) But to do massive numbers, you need to fight someone with a fan base, and someone the public believes can beat you.
LOL this is hysterical. It was Floyd Mayweather Jr's own personal Instagram account!! Who else would be responsible?
Yeah, and now Floyd is passing the torch to Canelo. Even Floyd himself said "Canelo is the future of boxing" after the fight.
It was Floyd's personal fight. He was in the ring dominating! It doesn't get any more personal than that. Anybody can hide behind a keyboard.
And Floyd may be right, what's your point? Canelo isn't good enough to beat Floyd, but he may be good enough to beat everyone else.
No one is bitter dumbass. We're poking fun at the *****s getting all riled up with anger and laughing in the inside. It's sad how they behave but hilarious to watch.
if you say so Holy Grail. ****ing shadow111 has done nothing but post bull**** drivel ever since the fight was signed. Dude is working overtime lol
Like I said, Floyd edged out Canelo on the night. He won a few important rounds and got a hard fought decision. That said, Canelo is capable of beating Floyd at 154. He has to improve a little bit here and there. At the normal weight he'll be stronger and not weight drained so it'll be more of a fair fight. Anything can happen in a boxing fight.
Sorry your opinion means nothing. I don't pretend to be an expert but you defending CJ Ross and saying things like "edged out" begs the question, what makes you an expert when you're in the smallest minority on this matter.
It's hilarious to watch. It's so easy to school *****s because all they do is *****. They don't have the intelligence to discuss boxing. -GhettoWizard- thinks everyone is "bitter everyone is about mayweather". This is what's so funny. No one is actually bitter, it's all just in his head. *****s even accused me of being a Mayweather hater lol. This is how brainwashed they are. Look at Tekniqs's comment : "if you say so Holy Grail. ****ing shadow111 has done nothing but post bull**** drivel ever since the fight was signed. Dude is working overtime lol" If that isn't a butt hurt comment by Tekniqs I don't know what is. I mean wow, look how sensitive these *****s when you talk about their idol FMJ rofl.
