I dont think they ever saw the corrales or castillo fights. Everyone wanted to see him and chico. And everyone wanted to see him fight castillo again. I dont even have to bring up hatton or shane. Everyone wanted to see those as well.
These guys weren't even watching boxing back then. PBF has had plenty of fights that the fans wanted.
Fights don't happen for a number of reasons. Boxing is a business you can't put all the blame on one fighter. With that said PBF fought Canelo a fight people wanted to see. He also fought Mosley, Cotto Oscar and Hatton all fights that people wanted to see. I could even go back further to Zab, Chico and JLC more fights people wanted to see.
Hey guys Im serious though... does anyone know how many champions PBF beat in comparison to Manny and maybe othe recent great fighters of this era like Shane oscar or even sweet pea? If nobody knows Ill do the research myself.
You say al this as if all these fights didn't happen because of floyd lol. I mean, why would Tszyu fight floyd for peanuts (lets not forget floyd didn't bring big money back then). People didn't want to fight him because he brings a style thats hard to beat and makes you look average.
:|:|:| And you continue to lose sleep at night and come on boxing forums to cry about it. Because this non fighting guy keeps proving your dumbass wrong fight after fight and has beaten all of your hero's.:hi:
Have other fighters done things similar to that? and does that make them full of ****? For instance, has manny or other fighters of this era ever done that?
This is a good one. Mayweather actually tried to fight Dorin and HBO wouldn't approve him as an opponent. They actually said Floyd was dissrespecting the network for even asking for that fight.
