Mayweather Is So Desperate To Be Popular

[brucelee]

anyone whos taking offense here, its not about him being known, its about him being liked by the mainstream non-boxing public, he wants women who watch american idol to know who he is, he wants to be the mainstream face of boxing, and that is NOT the case, and it probably never will be, as people who do not watch the sport regularly will find his style boring, and his personality will not help him

Precisely the same as my observation. Even I, feels that there is something in his style that is boring.I just can't explain why I feel bored with his fights.

Skill wise, I must admit that he's really excellent.

he was just on WWF monday night raw in an angle with the big show, he comes to the ring and has no character or personality so he goes straight to the ultimate crutch and hes like 'HEY-YO MIAMI, WHATS UP?!?' and u can see the crowd is mostly like 'who the fuck is this guy', so theres barely a reaction to his screaming miami, and then they have him talk some shit, leave the ring and the big show says something as hes leaving like 'fight me' and mayweather charges into the ring



he gets more desperate for popularity everyday

And all he has to do is fight more often. He does not seem to want to be popular, but looked upon as an icon or a celebrity. He gets lots of press when he fights so get out there and fight. At this stage he probably does not know what he wants, but whatever it is, the lack of boxing is not going to supply it to him as that is what he is. The WWE will also not supply him with what he is looking for.

It's a shame but all that talent and money but no one has suggested PBF hire a good PR man. This way he can move his lips but nothing dumb will come out. I say leave promoting to the promoters and let the fighters do the fighting.
