    A guy like Floyd could easily give up boxing it is being in the spotlight/famous that appeals to him more.

    Yes, he can take all of the three evil southpaws. Martinez/Williams/Pac. Those are the only fighters people are genuinely interested in seeing him beat. Easy fights. He shouldn't stay around to the point where his physical gifts diminish so much that his boxing skills can't even take him to easy victories.

    I wouldn't want to see him lose to some young punk that he could have easily schooled a few years back.

    for me, the mosley-floyd fight increased pac's chances against floyd than right after floyds win against JMM.

    if floyd-pac will square off this nov. floyd "0" might be gone.

    I feel Pac is the only one (at ww) that will be able to take Floyd's 0.

    If Pac loses against Floyd, I seriously doubt Floyd will lose his 0 unless he moves up to a weight the isn't comfortable for himself while fighting the best the division has to offer.

    Just my opinion, but if May for some reason felt like fighting at MiddleWeight I call it like this:

    Floyd 115-113 Martinez, 117-111 Sturm, 116-112 Mundine.

    I'm scarily starting to sound like a nuthugger but I am NOT. I just really believe Floyd's boxing ability is truely above everyone's out there today.

    I disagree with the williams fight if it is at 154. Even though he says he can still make 147, I don't think he would be as effective at that weight class. Given the fight is at 154, It would be hard for mayweather to fight his fight against someone like paul because of the combination of pressure, height, and reach. Not to mention the last time mayweather fought at 154 he did not look as invincible as he does at 147. And if mayweather doesn't turn the fight into a technical fight, he has a very difficult time winning.

    it's his choice. he can retire now or he can take on easy fights from here on end. with how much premium he puts on the "0", i'm betting he'll retire undefeated.
