What Mayweather does is pure science and natural talent. You guys bitching about boxing sure do tune in when it comes on. The fact is boxing needs better management at the top.
If that is done it would squash mma back to where it was.
Truth is a big boxing match will ALWAYS outsell a mma ppv.
Boxing has a much bigger fan base, its just in need of someone to organize it all

Boxers on his level only fight once a year or so, so it's not a stretch to have a long career if you are pretty good. Plus it's easy money for him to get all the PPV money from beating a bunch of shitty fighters.

Well good thing none of us are the types that will ever have a say so in that. Because it's hard for me to award that to him because he's never really had to fight the types of people that the greatest in each weight class have. And that's not really Money's fault, it's just the state of shittiness in boxing. The all time greats fought in a time where there were alot of boxers, and alot of good ones while they were in the game.
Go look at some great boxers of the past, and 95% of their fight history would make you say "who"?

Because I like sports, not because I like either one of these fighters. I like watching because I enjoy the possibility that at any moment, someone might get put on their arse. Reason number one why I watch street fights on youtube all the time.... lol

100% Truth. I agree. But this will never happen. NEVER. There is too much money, and way to much under the table shite going on. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.
Which in turn makes all the rest of your statements pointless.

Ok, you might be right, but of all of the greats, look at their title fights and see who they fought. Or look at the guys they fought multiple times and had wars with. Those fights are the fights that made them into who there were, and why they have been named as the GOATS. Not the fights themselves,(well some of them have) But the fighters.
I ask you this because I don't know alot about the types of guys Money has beat, but of the guys, who was really great, besides Mosley and De La Hoya?
Miguel Cotto, Zab Judah?

MMA has a younger fan base and I think that's a problem. Boxing needs to get some big fights on ESPN or Fox so maybe they can hype it up. It doesn't even have to be a title fight.

MMA needs to get fights in New York. When that happens, it will be big for MMA. But those retards over there think it's barbaric.

They do. Golden Boy Promotions has a Monday Night Fights series that airs every other Monday night on Fox. It started Labor Day night.

I know UFC wants a show in MSG pretty bad. I think NY is the only state that still outlaws MMA.

Yep, they suck. You would think New York, of all places, wouldn't be like this with all the abominations they have going on in that city. But they'll let Lady Gaga/Madonna/Miley Cirus show their pussy's all over stage in the name of art in MSG.

And they have Friday Night Fights, and still nobody give a single frick. They'd rather watch the shitty TUF with women fighting.
