    well the reason i think floyd fights 2 times a year mainly is because his hands are brittle and going into the hatton fight he was havin loads of problems with his joints his back protecting his hands thats probably the proper reason he "retired" to rest up theres no need to over fight and damage his body like so many fighters before who have fought too much and not rested properly

    Tyson was kept very active while with his original team management of Cayton and Jacobs.

    And before his time, Great fighters were kept very active.

    Now for that Mega Money, well, I'll stick with Tyson. He made good bank.

    It is however harder to make those big PPV fights supposedly and that's all Floyd wants so...yeah, twice a year may be tops to make that kind of money Floyd generates.

    he can at least fight 2x a year or at the very least fight pacquiao, it would be equivalent to like fighting 2 or 3 mosleys money wise.

    I think it's pretty relevant.


    People are saying he isn't fighting 4 times a year because he's a *****.. yet planty of other top fighters, including Pac, fight no more than 2 or 3 times a year.

    I'm a thick *******? Because I'm not willing to flat out discount the notion that Floyd may actually be having trouble with his hands?

    :lol:

    What a know-it-all *****!
