    He'll lose numbers, but if you think he's done selling high numbers you're ******ed.

    more people will probably tune in to see how he responds and if the first time was a fluke.

    Don't kid yourself!

    He'll loose a ton of numbers... honestly where is Floyd marketability? He isn't exciting. People buy his fights for the hype and the possibility of him losing.

    no, alot of people will watch to see how he bounces back, and to see if he will keep losing so they can laugh even harder

    I agree with a couple of points in this thread

    1) People buy Floyds fights in the hope he will lose.

    2) People will buy a Floyd re-match to see how he responds.

    Another point could well be if Floyd loses then avenges this he will be even more marketable and he will then go after the fights that will truly make him an ATG

    Floyd will cash out over $7m for every fight he's going to have from now on.

    It's been that since a long while back, and even if his 0 goes, he'll keep making millions, as losing the 0 is an indicator he's fighting the very top, which sells by itself.

    I think there are a lot of people who watch Floyd because he is a great fighter. Most people want to see how greatness responds after a defeat. If you truly love boxing and are not just a fanboy of a particular fighter you would probally tune in when Floyd fights. Now rewatching some of his fights thats a different ballgame.

    Floyd is gonna be the next jermain Taylor. After Pacquiao knocks his ass out, he will never be the same. EVER.

    Get a life dude. You are ****ing dillusional if you think there would not be a rematch. People would still pay to see him, he's an ATG. Not the same can be said for many in the sport today.

    :lol::lol:When he loses???:rofl
