Is Mayweather Jr. really worth the PPV mega-bucks he gets for his "fights"?

I've never purchased one of his ppv's. I'd go with does he deserve it, yes. Based on media spotlight and he obviously generates buzz and draws "fans" who couldn't name a bantamweight if life depended on it. He's a showman. He's a salesman and his own best hype man. Lately more talk is generated on his gimmicks and personal dealings then by anything he does in the ring. He puts ass's in seats and from many perspectives. Case of networks feeding him from a buffett. Some watch to see him fall....some watch to appreciate his twinkle toes type mastery of the squared circle once a year if that. He deserves it but now is he worth the bucks...not mine, not one fooking nickle.

LMAO, and not one fookin' nickle of mine either. I give Mayweather credit for doing a great job marketing himself and there's no doubt that he is skilled/talented and puts butts in the seats, but personally I wouldn't pay 10 cents to see one of his fights. That's not hate, just total lack of any interest.
