I think that Floyd is more responsible than his haters give him credit for. Look at all the guys DLH fought in PPV events Pacquiao - Big Draw Hopkins - Not a big draw but this was for the undisputed middleweight title. Mayorga - Above Average drawing power at the time Mosley x2 Trinidad - Huge draw Vargas - Huge draw (at the time) Chavez - Huge draw (at the time) The closest anyone came was about half as many buys as Floyd. You have to give him some credit for that.
I give him credit no doubt. He played the loudmouth punk that everybody wanted to see get beat, and he played it well. Lets not forget about the MASSIVE promotion behind that fight though. It was the debut for 24/7. That fight was marketed like no fight probably in the history of the sport. It was labeled as "the fight to save boxing", and people bought into the hype. Too bad it didnt live up to the tremendous hype. Lets see what kind've numbers Floyd does against Marquez. This will be a true test of his drawing pwer.
Boxing wont retire me, I will retire from boxing. How is this classed as a dumb quote? If anything its one of the best ever quotes that you could connect to the sport.
This is all true. Keep in mind though, Floyd did dancing with the starts, MTV cribs, WWE, and some commercials here and there. he also has a strong following with wanna be thugs. I think that he has better drawing power than many give him credit for.
Probably when he said that Cotto, Mosley and Marg were all beating each other but no one's beating him. atsch
lmao...so if you don't like what someone says, you tell them to leave??...is this really the pathetic state some forums have come down to or is it just all the floyd haters who cry?...atsch
i just think what he says is funny... and he does it to **** people off... which works pretty well... the guy does finish the job in the ring though...:good
I dont like Mayweather the human being. He says stupid things. And you are approving. But Internet is a free world. I'll survive.
oh the dude's got skills...just shouldn't be allowed to talk without a script when he's on with brian kenny :tong
