One Of The Biggest Fight Of All Time ? Yeah Right

[Master]

Most people do not watch Floyd for his boxing skills but for his dancing partner and the hope they beat him. Floyd is so defensive that he provides no value for money. Floyd is vastly overpaid for what entertainment he provides. Running and holding to avoid interaction is not boxing skills and entertainment.

Crawford is boxing skills in action.

Nobody in the know thought this was anything remotely close to the biggest fight ever.

It might be the richest fight ever, but it's not even in the top 10 of the biggest ever.

Just imagine if Frazier/Ali 1 or Ali/Foreman could both be taken out of the 1970s & transplanted into 2015; imagine the numbers they'd generate?

It wouldn't surprise if a billion US dollars is generated.

You should add a couple of zeros to that 10.

Mayweather is boxing's greatest frustration for not giving the fans the fight they deserve which he himself has promised. He said he would come blazing. Pwehhhh. He came running and hugging Pac when Pac was pummeling him.

When was the last time Floyd was blazing! He is boring like Chelsea football club.

Floyd honestly reminded me of the old codger Hopkins the last half of the fight. Posing, clinching, popping, posing..waiting for the final bell.

Maybe for once it wasn't the long term fans fooled, but the Hollywood moths to a flame fans. If I heard "fight of the century" one more time I was going to start kneecappin folks

Yes it mirrored a Hopkins fight, but I like Hopkins damn it. I don't like Floyd, so the fight sucked! Lol

It was always an overhyped bullshit fight.

This fight should have happened years ago when Manny was still at the top of his game and would have been more competitive, but that's boxing for you.

All the hype was built around the fighter that Manny used to be. The reality is that Manny is a shadow of his former self and hasn't knocked anyone out in years - and that's precisely why the fight was finally made. It was about one massive final payday for both fighters before they head off into retirement. Sure, Floyd is in decline as well, but his style is far betted suited to longevity and he was always going to win last night given the timing and circumstances. The bookies had him as a big favourite and rightly so.

The reality is that last night was about the fighters' names, not their current ability to fight. It reminds me of Leonard v Duran 3 and the lack of quality on display, and the outcome was the same.

It was a 12 round bore, a massive disappointment and anyone who paid to watch that probably feels cheated.
