Vermithrax]I cannot STAND Mayweather. He is the epitome of what happens when people start believing their own bullshit.
He's also the epitome of everything that is wrong with gifted black atheletes in today's sports.
Did he apologize to his fans for how the fight turned out? Did he express any remorse whatsoever for the debacle? Nope. This fight COULD HAVE helped people remember why they used to love boxing. He went and fucked it all up. Way to shit on a sport that made you famous.
I dislike Mayweather more than most, but besides the fact he's a classless asshole, he didn't throw an illegal head butt. Moral code aside, "Protect yourself at all times". I thought Ortiz was going to propose to Mayweather on the spot.
As for everything blamed on Mayweather? Blame the boxing system that is setup so perfectly for guys like Mayweather who can do wtf they want and have insane money purses at the end of the day. Just the simple fact that Mayweather and Pac didn't agree to fight because Pac didn't agree to Mayweather's blood testing rules is a fucking joke; right there is a red flag. No fighter should be able to dictate that type of shit and get away with it. But May does and there isn't a damn thing anyone can do about it.
Is Mayweather bad for the sport? Yes he hurts boxings credibility. But he's undefeated and the best until proven otherwise (I think Manny can knock him around). Is the initial boxing system worse for the sport? IMO yes and has been for a long time, lets not even discuss the shadyness of promoters.
Boxing is meh nowadays, the decline is there, it won't die off thankfully, but it isn't even close to what it was. It doesn't help that people only know 2-4 names in boxing. I still watch it and watch no namers on ESPN20.
