    Overpaid?? Do you know how much money he generates?
    Do we have to throw how much money a fighter generates into the mix now? Piss on whether it'll be a good or meaningful match, you want to know how much money the fighter will generate. Are you a promoter or a fan?
    What do you mean, throw it into the mix? The world runs on the supply/demand principle. Regardless of Mayweather's excitement, there is a LARGE demand to see him fight, and thus he generates a ton of money.

    If a guy generates over half a billion dollars in revenue, doesn't he deserve a fair share of it? Or is it all supposed to just go to the promoters? I'm not sure what the argument is here. Are people who feel Floyd is overpaid arguing that the fighters should get less and promoters more of the proceeds?
    I didn't say a single word about how money Floyd takes home. I was objecting to you talking like a promoter instead of a fan. I don't care how much a fighter earns or generates, I want to see exciting and meaningful fights.
    When was the last time we saw Floyd in an exciting fight? No entertainment value.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I have to agree with you on that, Floyd usually figures out a way to make it look easy. The prick just doesn't care if it's exciting for us, he just cares about winning! LOL

    That's true, but that's the best attitude to have.

    When is the last time you or anyone here put money in the pockets of guys like Magomedov, Gerald McClellan, or any one of the hundreds of boxers who retired brain damaged and broke? What boxing fans are taking care of guys like Meldrick Taylor or Wilfredo Benitez.

    It's a tough sport and nobody gives a fuck about you once you leave the spotlight, so why not take as little damage as possible and make as much money as you can? Floyd's had the greatest career in boxing history.

    Oh Dear It seems like I upset some people here by not worshipping Floyd One gave me a bad rep & called me names even Do I apologize
    HELL NO!!!! Mayweather is nothing but an over rated woman beating cowardly punk who was scared to engage a basically one armed fighter on May 2. He ran held & pulled on Pac's injured arm at every opportunity. He knows he only has to be standing at the final bell in Vegas to know he's got the decision
    Sorry but I prefer to support a fighter Not a cowardly POS


    Have a nice day

    That was an attempt at sarcasm. I wouldn't expect any fighter to chance a loss just to make a fight exciting for the fans. Seriously!!

    Hate is an overstatement, dislike would be more accurate. I dislike his fighting style, his misogynistic tendencies, and the way he disrespects anyone who doesn't agree with him.
    Is he the best ever to this point? Maybe, but you'll never get everyone to agree on that.
    Is he overpaid for what he does in the ring? I think so, along with thousands of others.
    Do I give Floyd credit for what he's accomplished in boxing? Hell yes, he's bumped heads with the most powerful players in the sport and thrived, but that doesn't mean I like him. I think his dedication and focus are almost unbelievable, but that doesn't mean I like him.
    I dislike him, but I don't hate him. Whether you believe it or not.

    It's an acceptable opinion I guess, if you're 8 years old and you don't understand how the world works hahaha

    If I open a bottle of coke and a genie pops out and says "I'll make you a great boxer and you can have the career and ability of any guy you want", I'm picking Mayweather. Never beaten, minimum brain damage, maximum cashola.
