    Its called taste and preference everyone is entitled to theirs. And it doesn't make their opinion any less valuable than yours if you don't agree, Mayweather is a negative fighter that many people find unpleasant to watch same goes for Rigondeaux, and its perfectly fine for Boxing fans to not enjoying watching them.

    Of course Floyd fans will love this fight, it guarantees a victory for their boy.

    And of course Floyd fanboys don't want Khan, as they know the whooping their boy would receive.

    Makes sense

    :nonoI don't like Korobov, Dzinziruk. Glazkov, Postol or Petrov.

    And you're right I recognize his level of skill you'd have to be blind too not....but I don't enjoy watching his style at all.:conf

    I don't think Khan beats Floyd. But I think it's a much harder fight that he would actually have to take seriously. And as much as people say this, there is something true in that Khan is a bad style match-up for Floyd.

    If you dont enjoy his style you shouldn't criticize or care about him at all. Why bother crying about a 40 year old boxer far out of his prime that wants a soft touch after fighting the #2 p4p? Tell me who at this age did not take a soft touch ever? I don't get why you'd force yourself to watch Floyd if you don't enjoy his style at all. You know what you're going to get, so why waste your time?

    Many do, but they don't ask fans to pay 75 bucks for it.

    Ok then go watch his former opponents then, stop focusing on a guy you clearly don't enjoy watching.

    yep, but why are you so invested in this topic? just dont buy the PPV, most floyd fans have said this is a joke already, and they wont buy it. ive seen you and a couple other european boxing fans just completely invading these topics.

    you're not a fan of his, and you wouldn't pay a 75 dollar ppv if it was Floyd against a guy you're not a fan of but a decent techinical opponent either way right?

    then buy the ppv if you're a fan. just like you're a fan of lemieux buy ggg/lemieux as well even though it's a complete joke for PPV in almost everyone's mind besides the GGG fanboys and the lemieux fanboys(though there aren't many).

    big floyd fan. im dissapointed he had us thinking that we were going to see this fight for free that should be for free giving his opponent in berto. not buying it ill rather watch it somewhere else or wait the week after to watch it free.
