    How many ppv has Floyd fought, I know it only started with Gatti because they didnt want to risk putting him ppv because there was so little interest with him, they needed Gatti to sell it.

    How is Floyd above Tyson, Trinidad or Mosely for top earners

    pbf is already a star is his own rights and especially to his estranged fans(im gonna get bashed for this one) it really depends on how he beats odlh.. if he beats odlh fighting not the usual running that he does then he gets a lot of respects especially from odlh fans.. shoot he even gets my thumbs up.

    SRL fought and beat some of the greatest fighters to ever live. Ive never been a big SRL fan but floyd,even if he beats ODLH, has done far less imo. Prime Leonard never hand picked fights.

    Disagree. He HAS tried much harder than Oscar BUT..its Oscar. You just say his name,it guarantees HUGE $$$. I don't think this one win will elevate Floyd into the company of SRL,no way.He needs more names,but it'll certainly enhance his resume much much more.






























    People are tuning in to see PBF chatting shit and flicking the speed ball one handed while grinning at the camera etc,he's bringing the bling factor with 50 cent alongside him as the wise DLH chills at home,quietly confident.

    srl holds a "win" over marvin hagler and a "win" in the second tommy figh sorry thas 3 ppl some of which were robbed adn yeah he beat tommy big up to him hes a legend but if u really look at it he isnt to be compared to toher legends ........ castillo is a fighter to be considred espeacially if he beats hatton ande mosely is one of the best of his generation ..... a legend who beat oscar 2 times so if floyd beat castillo alreday and if he beats oscar and mosely wat sais he shouldnt be considred greater? ....


    amean afcourse thas my opinion cuz i never realy understood why ppl praise him so much

    It definitely will make him a mega-star...he is already real close to that level.
    As for needing a win over Mosley...Mosley needs to beat someone good...before a Mayweather fight will be put togethter.

    Correction; SRL holds a robbery over Marvin Hagler, not a win, just thought I'd clarify that for you. Have a nice day

    Don't see what the fuss is about SRL. He was a punk. Duran beat him, and he got a gift against Hagler. And, he ducked Pryor badly, who would have taken it to him. And he did hand pick alot of his opponents. Great fighter, but no different than some of the fighters today. F-SRL.

    Yes it puts him in the megastar level but not that high, unless he stops Oscar. Although to put him in the SRL level he has to take a good fighter like Oscar or Shane and stop him. Ray Leonard made Duran quit and stopped Hearns at welterweight. And stopped Benitez, With that track record you are a megastar. Floyd just beating Oscar does not make him a true megastar. It did not make Hopkins a megastar, although Oscar was moving up. Floyd has to stop Oscar and he is in great company.

    Floyd is on the cover of a TON of magazines this week. Unlike Mosley and virtually everyone else, including RJJ, Floyd is a top P4P guy with a ton of boxing skills but even a better self promoter. He's out there. He's on ESPN with Brian Kenny, he's in GQ magazine, he's on the cover of ESPN the magazine this week, he's making the late night show rounds, a Jim Rome correspondent ect. And this is just stuff I know of. Oscar is such a crossover star because he has that crossover appeal and the way you get that is putting yourself out there, Mayweather does that. Just being in the fight alone will make him a star, winning and winning in style could make him one of the biggest sports stars in America and I'm not kidding about that.

    Look at boxing as a whole.

    Compare Floyd's record to others.

    ...with no hate in your heart.

    Lood at Oscar & his career...

    Ask that question again.

    The answer is YES.

    Floyd has wanted Oscar for over 2 - 3 years now...he's worked hard to get it...YES...he is now & will be a Mega Stah!
