    He has the biggest ego in the sport.

    He owes the IRS six million ****ing dollars. That's not something that happens to a dude who makes wise financial decisions.

    I bet it is more money than anything. My sense is the guy has a very high burn rate, he is probably spending money like a drunken sailor.

    dont know why and dont care, him being rich/broke does nothing for me, i only watch him in the ring, dont care about anything else.

    This "broke" and "trouble with money" talk makes no sense to me, only two people mentioned it, DLH and Mosley.

    His retirement, as I mentioned before, had a lot to do with taking a much needed break for his hand to heal and giving his body a much needed break. Now he knows he's 100% fit so he's returning.

    Neither.

    He retired because of EGO issues.

    Mommy: Ali did it and so on. Retire and you will look even greater when you come back. It doesn't matter that you were not really retired, those clowns are too dense to know the difference.
