I think it's because his style is so boring. It hard to appreciate his style when his fights barely maintain your interest. Not to compare their credentials but when Tyson fought you were glued to the tv because you didn't know what would happen. You couldn't risk looking away and missing something interesting. With Floyd I end up on my phone, glancing at the tv every once in a while.

Actually thats what is sad with Boxing today. Many fans are spoiled by brawlers and/or punchers and have lost the appreciation for great boxing skills.

With Mayweather, you are watching a boxer with the skill level to matchup with all-time greats...skill wise, whereas Tyson was a one trick pony who knocked out a bunch of mediocre heavyweights.
