What Floyd Mayweather Junior needs now!

[DaxxKahn]

IMO floyd knows that the "0" on he's record keeps him relevent, keeps him rich. He would likely beat everybody in boxing but the fear of losing that "0" keeps him away from boxing and into the embrace of foolishness.

I for-see Mayweather (And this is in no way an opinion that has to do with my personal opinion of Floyd just the trend he is seemingly on).....Is the continued legal issues for some time down the road...Either he gets jail time or has to pay HUGE restitution....In the meantime if he does not fight he will again get himself in more trouble mostly due to reasons memntioned by others above....He will fight again....One or two times for himself and one or two times because he needs the money....Once Floyd is out of debt and feels financially secure he will retire....He will blow his money (Floyd spends like Tyson did everything has to be over the top).....Floyd will return again for money....I see this cycle going on untill Floyd is stuck as another once great fighter who fights due to the need for money with no choice but to fight or be pennyless....Floyd will end up being beaten by fighters not even a shadow of his former self......

I hope I am wrong but at the moment he has that future written all over himself....WHY? I really do not understand....The man has the world by the balls and does not need to go down this path....I do believe that he does not have the right people around him....I think his Uncle and father are the worst things in his life as far as guidence....Actually I think Roger is the worse thing for Floyd I think SR cares for his son....I see Roger walking away fgrom him after JR is spent and played out....IF Roger does not end up back in prison for a long time himself

He needs his arse whooping by Manny Pacman.If Floyd never steps up to the plate and eventually fights Manny then im afraid we'll be called a Chicken Shit!!He knows that!I'd hate to think in the future the Mayweather vs Manny will be talking subject of down the pub or just normal talk between avid boxing fans of "Who would have won,How would it proceeded during each round,etc,etc....looks like that's what we'll be wondering due to Mayweather making every excuse not to give us fans and the whole world what we and BOXING itself need.That fight needs to happen especially the way the sport is now.

To be honest, that would probably do him and boxing the most good.

He also needs to get rid of those who are currently giving him counsel and advice. He needs to shed Senior, Roger, Leanard, but go out and get Jeff who has his head on right.

His entourage does him no good whatsoever as those hip hop parties at his mansion are reflecting. He knowes better, but apparently he has a short fuse in public. I can remember when he was back in Grand Rapids helping poor people by giving out food on Thanksgiving. Whatever happened to that Floyd? Vegas I guess--and his own paranoia and fear of losing his "0."

How many fighters of note, Legends, hall of famers, all time greats, retired undefeated? You need only to take one glove off, to count them. Mayweather is not the only modern boxer to share the strange misconception that cherry picking oponents and fighting once or twice a year to preserve a "0" will be enough to cement a legacy amongst men who fought 5,6,7 times every year against the best in their respective divisions.

A good ass-kicking. Then maybe he can stop dancing with the stars, wrestling with 400-pound guys, cherry-picking opponents... and get that hunger that only comes when you have to re-vindicate yourself in the eyes of the boxing public. He would stop worrying about his damn "0", and become a fighter, not a prancer. That's what he needs: a good ass-kicking.

I always thought he was protecting that 0 by hopping over 140 at the time.
Then again I thought 140 at that stage could of been a hiding place with most of the action at 147, but you have to note who he fought at 147 and who he could of at that stage gone after and were some picked to protect the 0 once again?

thing is, after the Mosley fight i think Mayweather would come back even stronger after a loss, i mean we finally saw him hurt in that fight (and badly at that) and he just recuperated and then started to come forward pounding out Mosley, did no running and still dominated the guy, i honestly think he'd be even more driven after a loss cause i'm one of the few that actually think Mayweather has that fighter's instinct but chooses to use his head to ignore it and stick to his technical advantages
