Mayweather on Golovkin: "He can't beat me...would be a good fight for me"

  1. People have been saying that since 2009 and he eventually fights the same guy that people said he wouldn't. The financial aspect that you proposed is a solid one. If HBO waves the right type of paper and K2 bends to the will of Mayweather he will fight Gennady, but it will be at 152 or 153 tops just to **** with him.
    Rehydration clause and all.
    What price is Gennady willing to pay to be famous and rich???

    B and C level can't I agree.

    But Brook, Thurman and the bigger GGG are A level hence the reason Floyd will stay away

    Floyd's too old for this sh!t. Just pick a bum and retire. There's nothing else to prove.

    But, hey, if he thinks he can take GGG's zero, he probably sees exploitable flaws. His boxing eyes are very sharp. They haven't failed him yet.

    I don't forget that the providers play a role, just the role is overstated these days. I made a post on a different thread about the casual (practically nonexistent in US ) PPV buying fan. Might clean it up and repost it, with the exception of a few Floyd and Manny buyers, casual fans that buy PPV don't really exist any more.

    competing:

    Floyd vs X 400k-500k , C/C 600-700

    non-competing:

    Floyd vs X 600-800k , C/C 800-900

    Fight buyers in the US are predominantly ethnic oriented, or otherwise actual fight fans. The boxing audience, PPV and otherwise is actually fairly static.

    Floyd's lasting legacy - a turd in a pair of shorts
