Wait a minute. I thought it had already been confirmed that the rib injury was bullshit and that he actually "hurt" his thumb when Corley blocked one of his punches. This is ridiculous. GBP needs to make this dude fight.

Maybe Robert is still too dangerous.

Perhaps Paulie will get the call.

Default Reason why Floyd retired for 2 years.

Probably hand issues. But he was afraid of Margarito.

That is indisputable. Cotto? Nah, not so much. But Margarito. Hell yeah.

Williams? He didn't want to fuck with Williams.

But his hands were probably fucked up. Wouldn't be surprised if he didn't do much boxing at all during his retirement period.

Anybody have any information on this?

He fought DLH at 154 as his first fight at the weight but retired for two years because he's scared of Margarito?

Im 100% certain Mayweather would've put on a clinic against Margarito back around then. Margarito Just came forward in straight lines and would've ate right hands all night. Cotto was getting the better of him handy enough in the first 6 rounds before he gassed out and the handwraps of he cheating cunt didnt do Cotto any favours either.

Default Re: Reason why Floyd retired for 2 years.

I think he retired because there wasnt a massive draw for him to fight and i dont think he thought he could make a big fight with any of the guys out there

Then Pacquiao becomes a big draw so Floyd comes out of retirement

Mosley comes out on top of the pile that included Williams Cotto Margarito Cintron and Floyd fights him

Floyd and Pacquiao didnt wind up fighting but they both used the attention surrounding them to fight lesser guys for big money

If Pac and Floyd didnt make what they make vs the lesser opponents they probably would have fought twice by now

but since this Pac Floyd drama has so much buzz and attention any time they fight someone else its huge and i dont think either wanna burst the bubble by fighting each other yet

Floyd would have dominated in the way Manny did, use the ring use angles avoid the slow plodding Margarito and score points at high accuracy

I doubt he would do the same damage but the domination would be similar

If that was the case, why did Floyd let Margarito take all his money?

I mean, shit...Floyd lost out on hundreds of millions of dollars by letting Margarito take all his damn money.

So, the only excuse is, Floyd's hands were fucked up and he needed time to heal.

Other than that, there is no excuse unless Floyd was tryin to pay Margarito.
