Mayweather dominated because the length of arms was substantial. He controlled the fight...manny had moments but floyd would never take a fight he wouldn't win. Reason he waited was mostly publicity I think. Floyd is a genius business man that is for sure. He prolly bet on himself too.

If you were him what would you do differently in the ring? He is going to retire as the richest boxer ever and still have all of his senses.

Not his fault people pay $99 bucks to see him throw jabs from the pocket. His marketing has been brilliant.

Roy Jones was a star, a destruction machine and great to watch. He never crossed over to being a big PPV star. That speaks to how great Floyd has been at branding.

off topic.

Patsfan.

Do you think the Clippers beating the Spurs increases the Warriors chances of getting to the NBA finals?

Yeah definitely.

Odds will reflect that as well.

Cle lost Love, SAS out, Conley is hurt.....Things aligning very well for GS

Haven't seen lines yet but I think SAS would've been like -160 vs Hou....Think Hou/LAC will land on Hou like -120ish (although maybe more with CP3s injury)

I'm not trying to argue any of this. I agree. The best boxing I saw tonight wasn't from Floyd, it was from the first fight of the night, Vasyl Lomachenko. Kid's for real...

Feel bad for you suckers that paid for that acting job. When you make that much for 36 minuets of "work" how can you have a "killer instinct"? Let them fight for the total purse and well see a real fight.

Was there a knockout. They want to make that crap interesting, they should fight until a knockout. After the 10th round, make rounds 5 minutes to better the chance of a knockout. Then increase it again at round 13 to 7 minutes. Unless there is a knockout, no one wins.

No shit. Chris Paul is twice the man Money ever dreamed of being.

Floyd is in a spot that only the best in the world can be at. He is the only one worldwide

Just the fact people think Khan can win means Floyd is making another 100mill in 3-4 months

That is sort of the brilliance in him. He manages to win but do so underwhelmingly that people always trick themselves into looking at who is next for him.

He is 38 and I think has showed signs of slowing down so by that token Khan could be live, but Khan really doesn't have the skillset to touch anything close to a prime Floyd.

and thats exactly why he isnt a fan favorite. He has a small fan base and 90% of his fans arent even boxing fans lol
