Mayweather vs. Hatton or Pacquaio would be the most compeling fights in the sport, but no matter how great a boxer or any person involved in boxing is no one person is greater than the sport. Yes boxing would be beter with Mayweather but it dose not need him.
Yes He plays many rolls during a fight and he adds much needed drama to the sport ... without him the sport seems dull, with him you have a guy that you love to hate and a guy that keeps you guessing.
:huh its obvious he doesnt need boxing anymore, he banked and retired. with mayweather boxing would get another top p4p fighter, mega fights and shitload of publicity. I guess boxing didnt need SRL after he retired either
top 3 favorite current fighters 1.pacman 2. B-hop 3. margo first, he should of fought margo in the first place, no ands, ifs, or buts, second the hatton fight was floyd's toughest fight in a while and it was vs. a smaller, less skillful fighter than himself, and third, pac just obliterated the same man that gave floyd fits in his last fight! all of a sudden oscar got old? pac handled that ass in ways floyd never could. are you blind? for the most part, mexicans don't like pussies running around the ring running from the fight, that's why they don't like floyd or oscar for those reasons. believe me, they know who tyson is over there in mexico.
I meant if he wants the limelight. No, when SRL was done, someone else picked up right after. Just as SRL did after Ali retired. I do agree, boxing is better w/ Floyd. But only if he's making real fights. not just paycheck fights w/ artifial HBO produced hype.
wow this is a biased post and wrong in so many ways mayweather fought delahoya at 154 not 147 pac handled a dehydrated shot oscar u put that oscar against mayweather and its a massacre margo shouldn't even be a welterweight but he can't move up another weight class cause he will get knocked out floyd has gone up I think 5 weight classes won belts in all of them and is undeafeated hatton may have been his toughest fight but he knocked him out like I said this post was u being a hater and margo can't give mayweather 20 million to fight
no boxing doesn't need mayweather but they benefit a lot more with him not retired put it this way if he fights in 2009 he would make more money and bring more fans back to boxing than any other boxer would
here maybe this might help your own blindness and biased ways top 3 favorite current fighters 1.pacman 2. B-hop 3. margo in case you didn't see it the first time. how am i biased when i have pacman aka the mexicutioner and B-hop as my top 2? atsch i've mentioned this before in other threads i don't deny what floyd has done at the lighter weights, but because pac thrashed oscar the floyderettes are coming up with every possible excuse to dilute pac's performance and what he might do to floyd if they met. floyd WAS supposed to beat oscar. manny wasn't, but he did in much better fashion than floyd. live with it
Boxing doesnt NEED anyone but anyone who says that boxing is better without Floyd doesnt know **** & deserves a good swift kick in the balls. Mayweather is without doubt the best p4p boxer on the planet, of course boxing isnt better without him.
