Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
Shame realy, had faith floyd would fight the winner of cotto/toni and then retire, not like this though, not like this!
Now what realy sucks is some fucking how pac will be the p4p #1? WHAT THE FUCK - everyone knows the guy didn't even beat fucking JMM for christ sake; few losses and draws this is no P$P#1 at all.

So this could be codwash to get more money but to be honest i think Floyd sounds like someone who just dosnt love the game anymore and to be honest does he really need to fight? he has his health an outstanding careers and a shitload of money ((more than he and his family will ever need))
i personally think he should take the Cotto fight then retire and forget all the rematch talk.
and if he dosnt fight Cotto and does retire i think he'll regret it BIGTIME ;)
but if he aint going and this is just hot air the guy is a prick IMO ;)
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
I don't believe PBF is retiring. Something tells me he's up to something no good. I think he will be back next year.
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
Thats a crying shame.
Common Floyd, ONE big fight against the winnner of Cotto/Margarito and you can leave the game.
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
Manny Pacquiao new P4P number 1 - I'm up for it!!! ;D
Re: Mayweather retires again!
This is why I hate Floyd. He's doing one of two things. He's either using a phoney retirement to hype the Oscar fight (and give himself an out for fighting Cotto) or he is just seriously ducking Cotto. Both things are punk moves. There are better ways to build a fight up.
Oh, my Daddy doesn't love me enough, so I need the attention of the boxing world begging me to come back, to prove that I'm important!! That's what his actions say to me. Shut up and grow up. Your freakin 30 years old. Jerk.
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
I'm still sceptical. Imagine how much money he could have made in the sham of a rematch with Oscar. And IF he really is retiring, would he please take Oscar with him. I have ZERO interest in seeing Oscar v Winky. In fact,I though Oscar looked very poor v Forbes!
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
What , Why he want to retire for then to return back ?:-\
For make Publicity , for call the Attention , for what? , I dont have any doubt that he is done , he dont need to do that , IMO maybe he want see if he could get a better offer with ODLH and who will win between Cotto/Margaro , for then return back............
To me this is an a Stupid thing , because he knows that if dont get a real good Purse with Oscar is because they know that most of Fans are not interesting to see that rematch ..............
I still thinking that this is an strategie , because try to remember what Tito Trinidad did when he retired , he did the same thing and earned some of good Purses......................
Now he knows that people want see him fight with Cotto , Margaro and others good and competitive fighters , if he do that , well he cant sit back and waiting for BEGGING..................:cool:
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
its nice to see boxers retire in good health and in good financial shape.
i see no reason for him to fight cotto its not like he has to prove anything to anyone.
there is always going to be a new opponent that people will say a champ must face before retiring to secure his legacy and if the champ beats that person then a new one will emerge it never ends.
mayweathers career is over he has secured his legacy and needs no one else on his resume to prove it.
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
Let's get this right this has nothing to do with Cotto or Margarito! I mean who he does not beleive in Floyds head no one could ever beat him? It may or may not be true but I'm pretty sure Floyd believes it; he's not scared of a fight! But if the fire is gone, Surely now he is most likely to lose if he does fight?

I know that he dont have to prove anything to anyone , but to me for be the best in WW Div. without any doubt , he must had to face with the best for clear the doubt , i know that he was real good in previous Div. , but in WW Div. and JMW Div. , he would have to demostrate more with others competitive fighters..................:cool:
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
Floyd IMO will always go down for ducking Miguel Cotto and Antonio Margarito. When people in future say the name PBF I will think of that, not KO'ing Ricky Hatton or becoming 5 weight world champion but his blatant ducking of legitimate contenders. I expected more of Floyd and with all his skill it's disapointing for me to remember him like that.
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
I am truly gutted as a fan of Floyd, because I am selfish and dont care about him or his family or what Floyd wants I want him to step in the ring and risk his health and well being so I can sit on my couch intoxicated on a Saturday night and root for him like a gladiator in Rome I want him to keep fighting because I think he should fight this one or that one....
Now for the way I really feel...
Thanks Champ for being a great fighter for all these years, thanks for preparing hard and being the best you can be everytime and being in tip top shape mentally and physically.. Thanks for being a once in a genearation talent. Thanks for being an entertainer and a showman, even though you been outlandish at times you really understood how to maximize your earning potential in an unforgiving business that left many broken physically, mentally as well as destitute. Your a 1st ballot Hall Of Famer and one who realized what you had to do and did it your way. Enjoy your family, money and future success, it was with YOUR blood, sweat, tears and hard work that brought you to the highest level of achievment, enjoy it Floyd you certainly earned it
Thanks;)
Re: Floyd Retires (Again)
I don't believe it. He hasn't been getting his fair share of headlines with all the Cotto/Margarito talk, so...yea. Time to make some headlines!
"Look at me, Look at me!"

If He had Cotto on his resume with a WIN next to it I would happily write that message too, I'm being serious. He's a good champion.
