    In the US he's super famous. Six million followers on Twitter. And here in NY hes loved and is a big celebrity. I doubt he's as big internationally though.

    Mayweather isn't that famous. Where i live we don't really know him. We live in a dense jungle. When i say we i mean me. Alone. . . Typing on a tree. Ortiz is here.

    Mayweather and Pacquiao are the faces of boxing. Of course people are going to know who they are.

    Come on now guys be serious........

    How on earth can you support & idolize a guy that claims he's the greatest boxer of all time but then says......

    I'm not fighting to see who is the best I fight for $$$$$$$$$$

    I fear for my health if I fight Paquaio

    I may be a coward but I'm a rich coward

    That's just 3 statements made by that balless wonder Fraud jr
    When I was a kid I always dreamed of one day being called CHAMP!! The heavyweight champion of the world was the supreme athelete.
    Now look at today where have the heros gone? We have a robot & a glass jawed girl guide holding the many HW titles & a cowardly woman beating street punk claiming to be the supreme ATG I rest my case

    No it doesn't say it all.

    Ability almost always makes you famous, especially when you're the best in the world, but that doesn't mean you NEED fame to be talked about.

    you are trying to make floyd as famous as some greats of last decades, please dont. he is as famous as klitschko or ward is and that means not at all..

    we are not going to miss mayweather and his boring style when he leaves boxing thats for sure
