That's easy:

Gatti - no one thought Gatti had a chance unless you buy into great white hype. I wanted to see what PBF would do to him.

Judah - say what you want about Judah being inconsistent, when the guy is focused he's one of the most dangerous guys in the division and he proved it for four rounds. I've never considered buying a PPV for Zab alone, Mayweather was the reason.

Hatton - again, didn't really think he had a chance and it makes the top ten FOTY list in my book. And I wanted to see what PBF would do to him.

De La Hoya - I haven't cared to see a DLH fight since he got beat up by Hopkins. I'm not some fan who'll eat up any crap Oscar poops out, but when this was set I was eager for it.

No actually you just cemented what I said, You watched those fights with anticipation because the opponents were DLH, Gatti, Hatton and Judah. You gave reasons about wanting to see them or how they would fare. Had nothing to do with Floyd himself. You would have tuined in to see Gatti and Cotto for the same reason, Hatton and DLH for the same reason, Judah and Mosley for the same reason. Had nothing to do with Floyd himself.
