Have you ever seen a sport die on live television before?
Have you ever seen a man make over 100 million dollars in a sport on live television before

Yes.
>Mfw i spent 100$ on this garbage

>theyve been saying boxings dead since the 1910's
>Canelo-Cotto done 900k a few months after it
>lierally every top 15 boxer in each weight division is a millionaire
fucking love my sport
The fact that you made this thread 10 months after that fiasco is evidence boxing isn't dead.
>>66215236
I still have it on my DVR.
it was a tactical fight idiot. 49-0
Boxing got more popular after May/Pac though.
Why do you assume things without even looking at numbers?

This fight was a perfect match between a supreme power punching short boxer vs. a master dodge-counter punch technician. People wanted a fight. What they got was a boxing match.

What they got was the a small black boy practicing slow dancing with his Filipino lover.

This is what I love about boxing. You can always tell the real boxing fans from the plebs because the plebs all hate him cause he makes professionals look like amateurs. Any real boxing fan you talk to loves Floyd. Imagine being so good at boxing that you almost never get hit. His opponents' connect percentage is is like 16%, and his own connect percentage is like 46%, both WELL above any active fighter. The man is simply too good. He cannot get hit, and when he throws a punch, he makes it count. The stats so not lie. In regards to his plus/minus percentage of around 30%, no other fighter in HISTORY even comes close. Even though people say he doesn't fight, he has a KO percentage of 55%, only 4% lower than Pac. Floyd is clearly the GOAT. Trust me, I wanted to see Manny knock his ass the fuck out more than anyone, but anyone who knew anything about boxing knew that would never happen. Mayweather has never been legit KNOCKED DOWN his entire fucking career. The one time he got a knockdown was when he took a knee because he broke his fucking hand (he went on to still win the fight). The man is simply on another level of greatness that losers will never understand, so they choose to hate him.

People said boxing was dead and missed the fight the week after with 50000 in the stadium and highest rated fight in years that was 3 slugfest rounds and ended in ko the year candidate

canelo is boxing now
swallow the red pill and join the #CANELOCARTEL

>Any real boxing fan you talk to loves Floyd.
His attitude alone makes it impossible to like Floyd, let alone love him.
Doesn't help that Mayweather Vs Pac happened way too many years too late. Mayweathers slower controlled style meant he could keep his form up longer to his credit, but that sure wasn't the younger Pacquiao that people thought could beat him in the once dream match.
It's not about his skill level. It's that he always comes across as being afraid to test himself against the best at their best. And that's why he'll never be seen as "The Greatest Ever" in so many peoples eyes.
>>66222713
Whoa save that pasta for the scene you TMT faggot.
>>66231743
>greatest ever
Please tell me that there are not people out there that actually believe that, right?
Pacman in his peak was better than Memeweather ever was and that's just the start of the list of fighters greater than he was....
I'd say if you were being conservative, there are 25-30 fighters better than Floyd in the 'all time' stakes.
If you're not being conservative, that number could easily be 70.
>>66232143
>fighters
Sorry, obviously I mean 'boxers' because as a fighter he's an absolute nobody. I could beat him in a fight and I'm a 150lbs 6'2 skinnyfat fag who hasn't even been in a gym since 2010.
He's a good boxer, arguably a top 100 boxer of all time. But he's no fighter. Accomplished women's mixed martial artists would beat him. The man struggled to beat his wife for fuck sake.

what they saw was two guys making a shit ton of $$$$$.

do you think khan survives vs canelo?
>>66217539
mma is a "great white hope" sport
>>66216942
I did. Got mates round and everything. Totally hype.
Blunder of the century. I just stream UFC main events these days.
I still think Manny would've won back in '09 or whenever the fuck the fight was supposed to take place, Mayweather's a ducking faggot.
>>66217539
Bud, the smallest flyweight can could toss around your disgustingly fat ass

>Pacman in his peak was better than Memeweather ever was
topkek
UFC is honestly worse
>>66232143
Mayweather would be lucky to crack the top 50 imo. His fans buy into the 24/7 hype too much. He wouldn't even survive 80's competition, shows how shitty the era in which he """""dominated""""".
>>66238700
Hearns is the one with the best chance of beating Mayweather.
Duran is tailor made for Mayweather to cruise to a decision against
Leonard would be a close fight
Hearns height confers so much advantage against Mayweather
Fight against Hagler isn't a realistic possibility given that Hagler only ever fought at Middleweight (bearing in mind here that Mayweather started his career at Super Featherweight, lower than any of the previous 4 mentioned. The reason Duran went up so high in weight was because he ballooned up in size between fights)
>>66238283
if he makes it past the 4th then Oscar should pay him an extra milly
>>66238700
by much bigger guys? Ye, sure. Might as well say Tyson Fury is a better boxer than Mayweather because he's stronger. P4P? Keeeeek, he would be in the top 3 without a doubt and in his own weight category the best
Or are you saying he wouldn't be able to keep up with many fights a year? You forget that Mayweather is damn athletic and very orthodox to his training, he wouldn't have a single problem in terms of stamina/keeping up

>object of the game is to get ball in hoop
>Steph Curry is abnormally gifted at getting ball in hoop
JUST
I love boxing. they just need to start making better match ups instead of protecting a fighter's record.
>>66214297
Every boxing fan knew the fight was going to be complete shit. I'm just glad it finally happened and is now in the past.
Yeah
