The Hopkins win over tarver was leagues above what Mayweather did to Judah. Better quality boxing from the 'Executioner', beat a better, mre dangerous, more confident opponent. More historically relevant too. Whereas Mayweather lost 3 or 4 clear rds, got KD'd, and did little more than 'left hook', straight right' all night. it was almost boring and predictable, and a very tarnished fight in the 1st place (Judah losing to journeyman Baldomir). You're right, Mayweather isn't the be all and end all, even if most ppl are seduced by his speed & flashiness. How much has PBF even done since those disappointing Castillo fights?BigEars wrote:Floyd Mayweather isn't the be all and end all in boxing , ya we should have gotten that fight but in the end it wasn't a great fight and the only real shame they didn't show that card was because the Arce and Diaz fights were great .Southpaw Stylist wrote:Sky Sports didn't deliver when it mattered.
Mayweather.
I can see why Sky showed nothing early this year. Cruiserweight being anonymous (if exciting). Heavyweight being heavyweight. Mayweather continuing his relative path of least resistence. But now with all the quality summer fights, the big names coming out, it's fitting that we get everything (though honestly we should get ALl the fights)
