The irrelavancy of Floyd Mayether Jr

Money May = the man people LOVE to hate.
Come rain, hell or high water people WILL ALWAYS tune in to see his fights. Just check the ppv numbers baby! The proof is in the chocolate pudding :deal

 

people hate him for a reason jacory. as a die hard fan of floyd, you should have learned to accept this by now. not everyone, not the majority, will have the same liking as you do for floyd. not everyone will have the same enthusiasm about his ppv numbers as well.

 

All 12 year old cross-over WWE fans will love to hear about his ppv numbers.

 

I say age & evident decline will make any boxer irrelevant at some point.
Mayweather is no exception @ 34/35+ by the time he decides to fight again....

 

To the TS, it is hard to appreciate floyd's quiet time when people continue to start threads about him, even when he is irrelevant as you said thus showing how relevant he is.

 

Exactly :rofl

 

Wheter u pay to watch him fight happily or not,your money doent have moods ,so it will go to mays pocket regardless...so ur post makes no sense,me i go to a friends house pretend i already paid my share and go on with my life!

 

Contradiction???????

 

I love Floyds out of ring antics. Hes always entertaining.

What I hate about him is ducking Pacquiao blatantly w/o refuting any of the coward accusations of him.

So basically I judge him as fighter, he needs to have more heart and courage.

 

Damn youre all over the place, no one cares if Floyd is nice or not!

What we need him to do is fight Pacquiao instead of deliberately getting himself into trouble in order to avoid a fight next year.

Because if he doesnt fight Pac next year then his career is over and his legacy will be reduced to that of Terry Norris.

 

Floyd will never be a crossover athlete because of his antics. Most people can't relate to his personality, unless they're black or into hip-hop culture. He can only make headlines by being controversial, and its always going to be that way because he has put himself in that hole. No one can deny his talent, but he truly is a shitty excuse for a human being and people generally don't like their athletes that way regardless how talented they are.

 

Spare me the cereal box psychology noob.

Best fighter of his generation I couldn't give a **** what he gets up to out of the ring.

 

So if he only fights Pac once and dominates him without ko'ing him it isnt enough and its over?

Can anyone smell a Mayweather hater posing as a fan?

 

Let's be honest. Floyd is very relevant to the sport of boxing. He brings something to the sport that is quite rare, in this time...a COMPLETE mastery of the ART of boxing. He has a gift...if you cannot acknowledge that, you are a hater. You may not favor his style. But, you cannot deny...it IS effective.

He has his issues outside the sport, but, many great athletes have. Sugar Ray Robinson, the GOAT to many...he was a woman beater. Sugar Ray Leonard, an ATG...he was a woman beater. Mike Tyson, an ATG...he had a host of issues. Ali, the GOAT to many...he was a womanizer. Let's go outside of boxing. Micheal Jordan, the GOAT in basketball to many...a womanizer, excessive gambler, etc. Tiger Woods, on route to be the GOAT in golf...a womanizer.

Why do we appreciate ANY of these athletes? Because, they have all done amazing things before our eyes, in their respective sports. It has less to do with who they are/were outside of that. None of them are flawless, as people, but, they have mastered their respective crafts. This is what makes them great. I'm not excusing any of these guys for their negative behavior. I just know why I appreciate each of them.

Therefore, I don't have to apologize for being a fan of Floyd. I admire his amazing talent, and unwavering dedication and preparation on display for each and every one of his fights. What he does outside the ring, will not change that.
