Will be kind of interesting to see whether he's actually able to leave boxing without self destructing in some way, I highly doubt it myself.
I don't think I can agree with you about Floyd self destructing after he "retires" or "leaves" boxing. He will always be in boxing, promoting, training or whatever plus he'll always have a gym or gyms. Let's face it, he is a gym rat and probably does his best thinking when he's working out.
You said his parents had drug problems, so Floyd Jr has probably seen some things he does not want his children or grandchildren to see. What I mean is he has that side of his personality locked down like a million dollar vault.
Maybe Floyd can't explain to you how he is so successful in the ring, but he is very intelligent plus he picked up a billion dollar work ethic from someone, so I can't see Floyd falling on his face.
