I think where they went wrong and the bigger disservice to the sport was the undercard. Top fighters but they were fighting bums.
I think they mentioned the one dude in the final undercard bout still did construction and sells insurance.


Biggest PPV ever.

There is no way this fight will happen next year. Both camps will dis agree forever.

By that time Mayweather will be 40, and I could give two fucks about seeing him fight at that age.
No they wont. They will get it done asap because Floyd will NOT miss out on one last payday like that. Floyd is alot of things, but he's not stupid when it comes throwing away another 200 million.

We shall see.

Floyd already has a ton of money, trust me at this point he will not fight if he thinks he will lose. They will fight over everything again imo, not to mention if either one of them gets injured while waiting for this rematch. He could have easily attained the same money he got this year, maybe more if they would have fought 2-3 years ago when they were closer to their prime.

Also the general public that are not boxing fans feels pretty burnt from the first fight, they will need to sell this big time to get the casual fan back. I doubt most of them will want to pay 100 bucks again to watch him run around the ring defensively, and Floyd isn't going to change his style to risk getting knocked out for his last fight for any amount of money.

It won't even be a Title match since Mayweather plans to give up all the belts.

Those guys don't need titles. They don't define them as fighters. The fight will be big. I posted a few reasons why already but let's add the recent bad blood to that. Floyd has been jabbing manny in the press. Rightfully so, but it won't be smiles and hugs next time around. Floyd is smart, he'll build on this and turn this into something much more heated by the time the bell rings.

I could give a fuck less about those two ever stepping into the ring again. It'll be another snore fest.

Floyd almost went Bankrupt a few years ago. Dude bets insane ammounts of cash. He lives a very very lavish lifestyle. Dude is a fucking spender and he has Nothing outside of boxing. His whole Mayweather promotions thign is a fucking scam. Once his boxing career is over, so is his income. He's not going to throw that 200 million away. Especially if he thinks Manny's injury was bullshit. Why wo0uld he say no to 200 million when there is no threat to his health NONE.

Its all Floyd speak. Just like coachspeak. Once them $$$$$'s are staring him in the face, it will happen. Manny is out for about 8-9 months anyways. Its all games.

I agree.. see my post above about him just building the fight using the hostile angle. It's much more fun when the fighters hate each other anyway. He's already promoting the fight in his mind.

Bummer.. Soto-Gomez fight if off. Gomez came in way overweight. That was going to be a fight of the year candidate. Hopefully Canelo-Kirkland delivers for you casuals..

Floyd is smart at this shit, first fight didnt need promotion (save all that money) it didnt need trash talking, it didnt need ANYTHING. The fight sold itself. Fight happens, Manny's shoulder was messed up. Anyone could clearly see somethign was wrong, he was just not throwing punches when he normally does. Manny is an extremely high volume puncher. So, fight ends up being boring.

2nd fight wont sell as well, so Floyd is thinking, i need to be the bad guy here and start trash talking so the fight sells. Its all going to be WWE shit from here until the fight.

I cant wait for that fight tomorrow. Them 2 dudes are going to slug it out! Of Course i gotta go with my Mexican side in Canelo!

I'm with your on Canelo. I love how he will fight anyone. I want him to be great bc he's going to be around a long ass time. Not even in his prime yet. He pretty much said he'd fight GGG too. Great fight when it happens. He already signed to fight cotto next. That's an interesting fight as well.

Quality fight card on CBS 4pm est. watching a British boxer lose is always entertaining. The tears from the British fans are delicious.

Yea. That deal is already done. Not sure why max made it sound like it wasn't already agreed. A prerequisite to cotto fighting Geale was Canelo next and agreed
