    I tell ya the truth, I am kind of glad he is back. I am not a floyd fan or anything, but, he definitely has some scores to settle.

    i dont like floyd but im glad he is back. there are a lot of people that believe in the snake oil he peddles and even if they are ill informed they do add to the number of fans for the sport. that can only help the sport in the long run.

    I do think JMM is his toughest test to date. Even though, JMM has to move up in weight.

    coming back @ 144 lbs

    seems fair for me against JMM considering the long layoff

    There was no lay-off.

    He has been training and sparring during this time and the 'retirement' is just an answer to "they will respect you more if you retire and come back. Ali did it, and many others have done it. Do like you always do, train and what not - and then after a while announce you make a come-back. Dn't worry, the suckers will fall for it. hehehehe....".

    Basically just bs. and while I think Floyd is a good boxer, he shold not get one ounce of credit for this supposed orchestrad retirement.
