Do you think Floyd can ever comeback from a loss?

    Somehow I don't think he will lose. if he has a close call he'll keep timing his fights and get to 50 and 0 then retire.

    Money rules Floyd's world, so yes.... if he's still a draw.. which he would be.

    10 more fights = 5 more years

    Floyd damn sure won't be until he's 38. IMO he only needs 2 fights to completely solidify his legacy, we all know what those 2 fight could be. Other than that I know he's a guy who doesn't want to go out as age catches up to him.

    Will he ever take enough of a risk to experience a loss?
    Undoubtedly extremely talented, but still far from cementing a place as one of the best ever.

    If he loses his 0. you will see the mayweather of old. an aggressive hungry fighter with a lot of weight of his back bc he would have nothing to lose again.

    Don't know. If he got beat like Leonard vs Duran 1 then I can see him make a rematch and win. This would make him a better fighter. This is probably what he needs.

    If he lost because of a robbery or any injustice to himself and ego, let's say for instance Whitaker/Chavez style, then he'd ****en go coo coo. This would send him in a downward spiral.

    Truth is Floyd has to stay on his toes. First fight that gets too competitive which ends up in the judges hands Floyd just might be given that 0 whether he deserves it or not. He has pissed off a lot of people in the boxing biz and despite what he thinks he might just end up facing a fighter more marketable than himself.

    Yes, Floyd recovered nicely in his second fight with Jose Luis Castillo.

    fans with add thinks castillo won the first fight. Floyd won the first five rounds. Are you telling me that floyd didn't get 1 or 2 rounds for the rest of the fight? regardless how well castillo fought the last few rounds, every round still worth as much as the other rounds. and you need to get ur eyes check if u think dlh beat mayweather. It was easy to score 8-4 in favor of mayweather. back and forth rounds from 1-8 and floyd took over... u must be one of those selective viewers.:patsch
