    About Mayweather.

    1) People have cottoned-on to the fact that Floyd is a cherry-picker.

    NOBODY wanted to see him face Berto. NOBODY.

    2) People are bored of his fights now.

    The action stops as soon as he enters the ring.

    He had the opportunity of a lifetime to really put the Manny rivalry to bed and try and stop him or even make it entertaining, seeing as it was the most in-demand fight of all time.

    What does he do? Plays it safe. Even when fighting a one-armed fighter!

    3) There's no KO's.

    People WANT to see fighters get stopped, simple. Floyd's last two KO's have been spread across 8 years and one was a fluke.

    4) Golvkin comes to kill, period.

    There's no "look at me spending $50g's a night". It's a more "I'm coming for you, be prepared".

    "I'm gonna make it a dog-fight" and then runs for 36 minutes. GGG comes to kill, period.

    5) The division is ducking him, not the other way around.

    Thurman, Brook, Khan - Floyd COULD have fought these. He chose Berto instead! Golovkin has THE ENTIRE division running from him!!!!

    6) People can't get enough of him.

    In an era of overhyped yanks (Broner), talker and not do'ers (Floyd), here's a man who speaks broken english but absolutely BATTERS his opponents. People WANT to see that. The demand is high for this guy, believe.

    Don't get me wrong, Floyd SHOULD pull in silly numbers for his 50th fight. But if GGG fights Canelo or Cotto (or both), Andy Lee (big irish following) and unifies whilst Floyd is still "retired" and KO's these guys, will anyone really care about Floyd in 18 months time seeing as people have had enough of his act already?

    The best way to forget about floyd is to stop bringing him up. I see that won't happen though.
