Is it really his last fight?

He's not retiring. All the biggest bands have had a lot of farewell tours. The Stones, the Eagles, The Who, Status Quo.......

I hope so. Let some of the divisions get back to normality.

He's pulling a "Jay-Z, (this is my last album)". It's all marketing. Plus, he wasn't expecting such a lackluster opponent. By next year, there will be enough buildup for a more formidable opponent.

I was talking about this today, I hope it is his last fight, I'm a massive Mayweather fan but the division is shit at the moment despite having some potentially great fights, they are all terrified of losing their shot at the big money fight with him.

Andre Berto is a complete non entity of a fight, I've defended him against the cherry picking arguments before but I can't this time, if it is really his last fight then fair play to him, he deserves a nice easy fight to end his career but if he comes back 6 months later then for me it just makes this fight even more farcical

I hope it isn't his last one. Not for the sake of getting the 50-0 but because of the opponent.

Thurman and Brook would sound like credible fighters who he could still beat at his young 38 years of age. But Berto for a last fight -even if you accept it as an easy farewell fight- sounds crap, as everyone seems to agree.

But anyway, at least Berto's happy, isn't he?

Would we want this normality back?

Floyd was greatly missed during his 2 year hiatus.

Boxing fans are selfish and won't be happy until floyd is falling apart in the ring.

Floyd sr and uncle rodger will know when floyd should call it a day...

Yep. I see this berto fight as a farewell fight.

Part of me can see him doing that ultimate diva move to in all actuality eclipse a 49-0 Holmes..still on top, still dominate unscratched and leaving with a fool tank. Then again..he's still getting suckers to pay $100 to sit on the couch and yell like they are watching history in the making and has to pay for that silk underwear somehow?

Berto is a tune up. Zero doubt he'll "fight on".
