    Who the fuck you want Floyd to take on next ? Cancer ?

    Look - He just fought and beat Pac-Man. The supposed Flippino bad-ass, who was meant to be this big tsunami, this big hurricane and he was gonna go in there and give Floyd the fight of his life. Now don't me wrong. Floyd did not stomp all over Pac-Man, well, because that's not Floyd style, but he did what Floyd does, nullify his opponent, stop them from hitting him and then countering him. I also don't think that Floyd is TBE. So I'm not Floyd's dick like that.

    But FFS Floyd has been fighting elite guys for 18 years. He's the only guy left from his USA 96 Olympic team that's still fighting !!

    Cant he just have one easy fight ? And actually is Berto that bad ?

    Kell Brook fought Frankie Gavin last time out. Amir Khan fought Chris Algieri last time out. Keith Thurman fought Luis Collazo last time out. But I'd rate Andre Berto a better fighter than Gavin, Algieri and Collazo.

    All those people saying this is a hard sell, need to shut the fuck up, come Sep 12th, you know you'll be buying it, or going to one those free streaming sites to watch it.

    Even though it's true what Mike Tyson said of money, that, "Floyd's a great fighter whose never been involved in a great fight"

    People will still buy it.

    And who knows ? I reckon Berto's reading all these comments about this being a mismatch, and him being a no-hoper and a nobody and he's probably at this moment breaking rocks. chopping trees, training like his life depended on it.

    And maybe, Mayweather is thinking "I just beat Pac-Man. I ain't got nothing to prove. All I have to do is show up"

    And who knows ? That workerd for Douglas against Tyson. So why not Berto against Money ?
    In your rush to protect Floyd, you consistently miss the point. The majority aren't complaining about Floyd fighting a gimme fight. The complaint is that it's a rip off on PPV. Don't try to justify it or point out other rip offs, as if that justifies this rip off. Have some integrity and say: "this fight should not be on PPV but I'm a die hard Floyd supporter and want to help make him richer".

    I hope the PPV tanks hard and he has to come back and fight someone good next time around.

    Berto is weak, like a fruit

    What if Berto knocks Floyd down and it becomes an exciting fight where Floyd has to dig deep just to survive?

    Win or lose? Will it still be a shit fight?

    Yeah but he was still undefeated though. Whenever someone brought up the "Marciano record" it was as a champion who retired undefeated, which is what Finito also did.

    95% of the people who are potential buyers of this PPV heard about it weeks ago when they were telling us it was going to be free on CBS. And an awful lot of them thought Fuck, Berto, but at least it's free and they're not asking me to pay for it. Now they're asking them to pay for it.

    If Floyd Guerrero only did seven hundred and something thousand then this could easily do less than that. I don't think Floyd is fooling many people when he says he's retiring and I think people will wait till next year to see who he fights next before they shell out for another Floyd fight. A lot of people will watch this on the internet, off a download of the following Saturday on Showtime.
