    Don't equate me with Euro fans, my tastes are clearly broader than that, as far as the latter point, no I wouldn't pay to see Floyd fight an opponent I don't care for, like Alexander or Khan, and I'm not going to buy the Berto match either but I am rooting for Berto and call myself a fan of his, but its a pointless cherry pick of a fight that he won't win.

    It's not about tastes, it's just that I see that every opportunity you have to criticize Floyd you take it. You clearly don't like the guy, nor do you like his style. Now you might say oh you criticize Brook and Pac all the time, but I actually do like to watch them box regardless of who tehy fight. I watched Brook/Gavin and Brook/Dan, the main reason I criticize him is because I want to see him fight good opposition to see where he ranks among the top guys. Same goes for Pac/Algieri, I criticized is because I knew Algieri had 0 chance.
    Why are you so invested in a guy you dislike personally and dont like watching?

    I'm not happy with this fight. I get Floyd has fought everyone and he's well past prime but it still sucks. I wouldn't mind so much if it was on free tv. I would rather Khan have gotten it for the simple fact I know there is a good chance Floyd would actually get a KO.

    CST80 is simply anti-American when it comes to boxing. Hopefully his deportation documents are about ready :yep

    I don't dislike Floyd that much, the at all comment was a bit extreme, as far as being invested...I'm not I just have nothing better to do tonight and don't feel like doing another Educate Yourself thread...and its currently the main topic of conversation.

    Well, I see you **** on floyd a lot. Whenever I'm browsing, and I see the usual Europeans **** on Floyd you pop up on a lot of those discussions too. And what I've been saying isn't just directed to you, it goes out to all the usual suspects going on and on about floyd's opponents and how they hate how he fights yet they always watch him. Even if Berto/Floyd was free they'd **** on it and they did before the PPV was announced even though they couldnt name a 38 year old who hasn't taken a soft touch.
