Anyone actually think Floyd is good for the sport?

If he is drawing higher numbers than other fighters besides DLH, then I would have to assume he is. Or I would have to assume that other fighters are NOT, because they have lower numbers than he does.

 

Let's keep in mind the guys he's been fighting - it takes two to make a PPV, and he's had some big-name "co-stars" lately.

 

He could be better for the sport, like a Ray Leonard type fighter.

But he is not bad for it.

 

Baldomir was not a big name co-star. And DLH has had big name co-stars before, in better era's for boxing coverage, and he never did anywhere near those numbers.

 

It certainly does take two to make a PPV, but none of the guys he's fought on PPV(besides DLH) had even fought on a PPV main event before. Also, I wouldn't say Baldomir is a big name

 

yes he is

 

Of course real fans of the sport will pay to see elite fighters. What he does out of the ring does not diminish his in ring accomplisments. Dumb ass thread.

 

I hate the dude with a passion but he drew me and a few other friends into the sport. This is an obvious answer imo - yes he is great for the sport....love him or hate him its the truth

 

:hey another **** **** thread with some jealous ass hater talking about how much they hate floyd for being perfect and undefeated. I mean I can tell the envy is hurting you guys:hey

face the fact floyd is likely going to retire undefeated as one of the greatest fighters of all time:yep

 

I think yes, hes good for the sport. Some people appreciate boxing, not two guys just slugging it out with no real strategy. ( Gatti-Ward- no offense). People love Leonard but all he did against Hagler was run and flurry at the end of the round, at least Floyd figures out his opponent after a couple of rounds, then begins to disect them. He would have stopped Judah if not for the 10th, and he rocked De La Hoya a couple of times during there fight.

 

Little sensitive tonight?

 

Floyd is good for the sport of boxing like Dick Cheney is good for the country.

 

I already said DLH never did those numbers before he fought PBF.
