3 completely 1 sided fights. Yeeeeeah, lets scam large sums of money for PPV for fights where we already know the end result. Lets be real here. If it was one of Broners infamous 3 way *** tapes with Amir & Floyd you would PPV it. All the while you would have buckdacious reaching through that popcorn for a stroke over your boy Floyd. Imagine if Floyd actually fought someone who was a threat?! Like Bradley or Pacquaio? The PPV sales would be crazy! Then again we can only imagine, because he sure as hell aint going to put the 0 in jeopardy.
Not really about the sport, People just over Pacquiao. People all about Canelo, Cotto still, Bradley if he wins this fight will be another fighter to follow. People digging Thurman alot, Heavyweights back in action. Not bad for boxing at all. maybe great for boxing! Make Arum start making good undercards and stopping the cold war
He just fought somebody that was a threat and it did 2.2 million buys! give it a break dude atschatsch
He just had a poll between Khan & Maidana. He recently fought the plodding Ghost & a very green Alvarez. Seriously? How on earth do you believe either Khan/Maidana deserve a shot? Hell, prior to losing to Bradley, Marquez was more deserving. The longer you so called "fans" of this sport support Floyds cherry picking, the result will remain the same. Incredibly one sided match ups ending in very one sided results.
Glad to know you think so highly of Alvarez's talent. That "very green" boxer you are talking about was the consensus #1 at 154 pounds before Mayweather beat him. If Alvarez is "very green," what does that make the rest of the 154 pound division? Pond scum? I would also like to read your explanation on how somebody with 44 career fights, including unifying a world title, is "very green." Last I checked, Canelo has been boxing since he was 13 and was a National Champion at the age of 15. Nothing "very green" about him.
dude Maidana is a top 5 WW, and u could argue hes #4 behind Bradley and JMM. has the WBA title, has won 4 in a row. are u kidding me right now?? Nobody derserves it more expect for Bradley, thats it! and he has a fight with pacquiao coming up. Mayweather takes the best avaible option as always. i wish more fighters picked like Mayweather. we would have all unified champs like we want in boxing. u keep talking about 1 sided fights. WELL THATS HOW GOOD MAYWEATHER IS!!! Every person he fights will be one sided. Bradley would be, pacquiao would be, anybody. so stop talking like hes picking easy fights. every fight is easy because hes that good
The mainstream public doesn't want to see a rematch of a fight that ended in a shitty decision. Can't say I blame them for that.
Don't get it twisted, i think very highly of Alvarez. However i think much, much higher of Floyd and those at the Elite level. Unfortunately when he fought Floyd i like many saw it as too soon. He has not had enough time fighting enough A class fighters to take on someone who is consider one of boxing's greats. He was simply too green for someone of Floyd's caliber. Hence why it looked incredibly one sided. In regards to your last statement, there is a very big difference between fighting Mexican fighters like Angulo to the likes of Floyd. @buck - No, i do not believe a fight with Bradley would be one sided. That would be a tough fight for Floyd and a genuine "fight". I believe that he would beat Pacquiao but that doesn't change the fact that he is a serious threat to his 0, Floyd knows that, hence why the fight has never been made. "every fight is easy because hes that good" - just like the Margarito fight huh?
Well at least Pacs fighting a good opponent unlike Floyd who's fighting a guy that got dominated by Devon.
Honestly couldn't care what kinda sales its doing nor the numbers who honestly gives a **** how many buys or some **** a fight does, i'm a boxing fan this is a great great fight between two p4p fighters who have a real grudge and both something to prove living in Ireland but will still have all my mates round for a long night in of drinking and eating, cant wait for this fight FOTY potential. Nobody can deny its a way way better fight than Mayweather vs Maidana
:deal Thank you sir. Somebody who appreciates BOXING. Not the glorified marketing behind the records and easy paydays.
