Look at the situation Floyd has put himself in when it comes to his position in the sport of boxing. He is peaking right now when it comes to his position in all aspects that relate to his active boxing career. He not only has 2 sanctioning bodies in different Divisons waiting on his decison...Hes got HBO and Showime willing to go above and beyond to get His Fight on May 4. Now hes got fighters fighting and begging for their 1 shot at Fame. Mayweather got everyone wanting him at this point. It don't even matter who he fight, he could go fight 1 of the Paulies, make a story of it, and make 50 million. Just to get to this position is an amazing accomplishment, but the longer he stays around he runs the bigger risk of making a permenant mistake, but even if he loses he still gonna make that paper in a boxing ring.

Floyd is a genius. A month ago Guerrero was looked at as a cherrypick fight. Now the world is yearning for this matchup. Even going as far to say Floyd is ducking Guerrero now. Freaking brilliant.

Now people actually think Floyd is ducking Guerrero. And I meant yearning when I said yearning so stop fronting like you arent gonna go buy this fight. |

Maybe hard core fans are interested in this fight, but don't act like the general public is drooling for this fight. As someone else mentioned Alvarez is gonna help sell this fight, it needs a strong undercard. And I never said I wasn't going to tune in, eventhough I doubt I will buy this one. |

The general public cant get excited because the fight hasnt been announced yet. The funny thing is how Guerrero transformed, in a month, from an unworthy bum to the next guy Floyd ducked lol. Mayweather Hater Nation is a powerful force. You mention the general public, Canelo, and having a strong undercard like the general public know who Canelo is. People only know Canelo from Mayweather undercards in the past. Lets be real Canelos only fighting on May 4th because hes fighting on Floyds undercard. HBO couldve just as easily given that day to TR and Canelo would be back fighting on Showtime. This post has been edited by leonthegee: Feb 12 2013, 09:14 PM |
