    He's the most entertaining fighter since Roy inside the ring. And outside the ring, he's one of the most entertaining ever.

    I watch boxing and i don't think the most exciting fighter since Jones. I can name a few fighters who i consider more exciting than Floyd.

    Then my bad, thats just my opinion. But inside and outside the ring, he's very entertaining.

    IMO, Jones jr. was boring at times aswell..
    And he defo had the worst PPV undercards in the history of PPV.
    (The majority of them....)

    I agree with the undercards. But it aint PBF or RJJ fault that they take "A+" competition and make them look like sparring partners!:rofl

    That and people pay to see him get beat down..
    It's the "Gorgeous George syndrome"

    I for one, Liked watching Mayweather Jr. during his 130Lbs day's.

    Agreed. Ppl buy PBF & RJJ fights just to see them lose. They pray the night before for whoever the opponent is to win. And during the fight, they cross their fingers and hope PBF/RJJ loses!

    :| I didn't pray, But I was twisting my finger's when Chico fought Mayweather....
    I was crossing that Jr. exchanged the entire fight. (Toe to Toe)
    Lil' ****er fought the perfect fight.

    Floyds Style Doesnt Allow Him To Be The Most Exciting Fighter @ The Higher Weight Classes...however By No Means Is He Boring To Watch At All...and He Chooses To Fight People That Are Bigger Than Him He Doesnt Have Too...floyd Could Go Down To 140lbs And Beat Up On Everybody There And Come Forward Like He Did Against The Likes Of Gatti, Corley, Ndou, Sharmba Mitchell, Chavez, Corrales, Genaro Hernandez, Etc...but Id Say Hes A 7 Outta 10 With Excitmenet..plus Floyd Talks Alotta **** Before Fights That He Backs Up Which Makes His Fights That Much More Exciting...

    no, there was only one fight of his that I found boring and that was the Baldomir fight, I was very dissappointed in him for not doing more when he could.

    He is fun when he gets aggressive, plants his feet and throws combos with primarily shoulder roll defense without having to always dance away like he used to do in the early part of his career. As soon as he started to slow down even just a small fraction he started doing more and more of the pot shot and dance, just like RJJ did when he started to lose a step.
