    Default Mayweather Snr Actually talking sense for once

    Floyd Mayweather Sr advises son to retire rather than take 'easy' fights | Boxing News | Sky Sports


    I actually agree with him. Might as well just retire now and not risk it by trying to take the piss and taking easy fights. Laugh my ass off if Berto overnight grows into that potential we wondered he had a while back and knocks him put.

    Would you turn away an easy seven figure payday?

    Who's fault is it that Mayweather makes these stacked deck farces & gets paid big$$$$$$$$ for doing so?? Anyone that has bought into his BullFecess & actually paid to watch a coward run & dance & hold for 12 rounds ( He must be on some good Chit to be able to do that) Knowing that when the final bell rings Vegas officials will do their job
    Hence the 118-110 ludicrous scorecard of Moretti's on May2

    If I already had more than enough money than I knew what to do with, and would last me 50 lifetimes..... and my legacy was at stake?

    Yeah.... I'd turn it down.

    Floyd will go through all that money in a few years, he'll go broke like 50 Cent.

    There's a term for guys like Floyd, I can't remember what it is though. Something rich. Can't remember the term for the life of me.

    Well when your life revolves around money, you spend it very fast. You or me may never blow that amount of money but that doesn't mean Floyd won't.

    It's proffesiona boxing, there isn't really such a thing as an "easy fight". A 12 week training camp that you can't slack on, then a fight where the other person is fighting the biggest fight of their life.

    Risk vs reward, especially with how low earning this next fight will be compared to usual.
