 Boxing Perspective: Floyd Mayweather Jrs Second Retirement

So, Floyd Mayweather has retired, again!.

I’m sure I’m not the only one thinking that what he probably means is…”I’ve retired (unless something interesting crops up!)” It seems the five-weight champion is no longer ‘happy’ to fight and retires at the height of his game with a perfect 39-0 record.

It’s a shame that we won’t be seeing the re-match of De La Hoya vs. Mayweather, supposedly scheduled for 20 September 2008, and the hunt is now on to find another suitable opponent for the Golden Boy.

I also wonder what Ricky Hatton is thinking now, his defeat being the last of Mayweather’s victories – Hatton has made no secret that he too wanted a re-match with the ‘Pretty-Boy’ next year.

But, then again – ‘Money’ Mayweather can’t resist a tempting offer and having retired before – I won’t be sending a card just yet!
