NO SUNSHINE Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Yeah but you also have to bear in mind that interest in boxing has been on a constant wane for the last few years.The same people who may have tuned in to watch X fight 3 or 4 years ago may well not even know it's happening today.

Numero001 Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Pac made his name to the casual fans against DLH and Mayweather did against Gatti?DLH was the defining fight for both of them in terms of PPV.Against DLH Pac did 1.25 while Mayweather did 2.4 that's almost double and in my opinion too much of a gap to be just put down to circumstances.Mayweather is media savvy and promotes any fight he's in like crazy. He is driven by money so he goes that extra mile to promote his fights, him wearing a Man Utd shirt at the Hatton press conference is a good example.As for venues Mayweather was asked about fighting elsewhere in an interview and he said that financially it makes sense for big fights to be in Vegas so unless he received a crazy offer he wouldn't entertain the idea.Wow, I just checked his record. Gatti gave Mayweather his first PPV + 24/7, but I didn't realise he fought Zab Judah, Baldomir, Sharmba Mitchell and them in between DLH. f*ckin hell, he fought some right bums.Anyways f*ck Mayweather he's a pum. I like Flojo still, where were you before? Dont remember you touching on these boxing debates. You know your stuff. Or is it because youre a Mayweather stan!?

NO SUNSHINE Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 He fought Baldomir to unifyFought Judah because the fight was a done deal before zab lost to baldomir. nobody saw that one coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojo Posted March 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 True but Mayweather still managed a million against Marquez who's PPV figures have never been near that.If Mayweather v Mosley does significantly more than Pac Cotto I think it's fair to say Mayweather is the biggest draw.

IIRC he is the only guy who has dropped Mayweather. If u remember that fight u will know that the 10th round changed everything.and Bladomir fight went the distance it wasn't like he any cab driver the guy was a legitimate champ.

Or is it because youre a Mayweather stan!?lol I didn't used to venture into this room much, I'm a fan of boxing in general but Mayweather is one of my favourite current boxers along with JMM Pac and Jermaine Taylor. I understand why a lot of people dislike Floyd but it's almost a given in boxing that boxers are gonna talk sh*t, Camacho callingout Pac and Mayweather the other day is proof of that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he would have focused and got a decent trainer ( his dad cracks me up doing his combinations in the corner) he could have been a real problem. In the Mayweather fight he posed serious problems with his accuracy and speed for a few rounds but when Mayweather figured him out and started to pressure him he wouldn't let his hands go.

Numero001 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 My bad, I wasnt calling Judah a bum cos he's a talented fighter, albeit lacking concentration but I wont take that away from him.

The King Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Mayweather UD. He's too slippery.Made a schoolboy error today, didnt check my bet before I slapped it on.

Guillermo Rigondeaux Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 it wasn't pointless mate, the guy he was fighting was a top russian prospect. the promoters made a big mistake; they thought enzo was past it and they were feeding their prospect a big name to try and boost his record. enzo slumped him. he looked good but no defense whatsoever as usual. he's saying he wants to fight for titles again now lol.
