Mayweather with out his wannabe persona would his fans even like him?

I think we can both agree all of carl's talk isnt intelligent.

He has some serious delusions about his own in-ring abilities, but Froch is far more witty, intelligent and articulate than Mayweather is.

alot of his fans only like him because of his persona the undeafeated part is a bonus its the same reason ward is undeafeated but without the love.

what yall think?

Some people may like him for that, but I think I speak for the majority of logical boxing fans when I say that Floyd is one of the greatest fighters of our generation and that alone is enough to be a fan. You may or may not like him outside of the ring, but when he fights its all buisiness and I enjoy watching his events.

I don't necessarily agree but froch is witty. I'm cool with either. I just feel if your ok with froch talking about how great he is than it would seem you should be ok with mayweather bragging about his greatness.

Yes he is an exceptional talent. Also people throw around the term ''wannabe'' too much.

[Bullrider]

The guy fights rarely and still the greatest according to his fans. What can we do? Fans are fans. They'll love their idol no matter what, ***** and all.

Most adults that pay to see him like his boxing ability , its on another level , his persona is for the kid fans and kid haters .

[ShoulderRoll]

His boxing skills are the best in the entire sport. That's why I watch him, not for his mouth.

Honestly, I think he got more fans when he made racist comments and tried to act like he was being under attack all the time. The people that love him, probably share his feelings of being under attack all the time. It's pretty damn immature if you ask me, but whatever. I follow fighters who take risks. Fraud Jr. would never be in my P4P risk taker list.

It's true, he reels people in by pretending he's the victim and wanting everyone to believe he's being attacked all the time. Yeah the racist woman beater is totally the "victim" and his hardcore fans actually buy it. There's nothing wrong for liking him for his skillset, which a lot of them do, but then you have a ton of them who defend the shit he does like hit women and be racist. That's when it gets embarrassing for them.

[HAVISJ]

A lot of his fans watch and have followed him because of his in ring skills and ability.

His persona and character is irrelevant.

Great post

this, I don't like him outside of the ring, but in the ring his skills speak for themselves. He's not a whiny fighter, he's shown great toughness when needed, heart when needed, a very good chin on the VERY rare occasion in which he gets hit and in general just a great boxer. Don't like him outside of the ring, but give the guy credit for his skill level at the very least.
