    I wish, maybe I could see more shows where kids like you get made fun of.

    It's not my fault you have the intelligence of a cartoon character on comedy central. I would actually be pretty embarrassed if I was you.

    I speculate that he retired as a duck. The same reason you fight wrestlers instead of fighters. Or it was, in his case.

    I think his management of money is **** poor, and he is too, relative to what he could be if he knew what he was doing with his money, or what used to be his money.

    He turned down what might have been the second biggest fight in boxing history in the DLH / Mayweather rematch. He turned it down flat. With a bigger slice of the pie he would have about the same as the first one or more quite possibly, it would have been Oscar making less.

    But I think problems with his hand and fear of losing, amazingly, amazingly, made him turn down this fight.

    He must regret this move now, it was so short sighted, how many opportunities do you get like that?

    In any event, he unretired for money, because he is in desperate need of it.

    That is my opinion. However, I think he will be perfectly happy fighting Mathew Hatton and Ricky again before he takes a fight in which he will lose his (already tainted) "0" but I hope Floyd proves me wrong and stops running from Pacquiao.

    I mean, its just an ass kicking and he needs the money and says he can win. He ought to make the fight and quit stalling, pac will be blood / urine tested right after and they were willing to do a 10 million dollar clause if Pac tested positive, game over, make the fight Floyd.

    But he doesn't want the fight, however he cares immensely about what people think of him, so we get this wacky display.

    make the fight Floyd, I want to be wrong on this

    The jerkoff came back with new obvious totally dickhead nickname, disrespecting the sweet science and rub it in to the fans altogether and still this dumb question???

    Well, beatch retired cause: Margo, Williams, Sugar-dude and Cotto were rumbling and getting close to fight his scared ass in the first place!!!

    Then, he came back cause Margo was (and still is) out, Williams moved on, Cotto got beaten, Sugar-dude is getting old and easier to duck then, dodging 4-5 fighters at the same time!!!!!

    **** that greedy *******!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Check out the link, some guy named Willie stole millions from him.....

    http://www.examiner.com/x-23590-Mis...miner~y2009m9d19-Is-Floyd-Mayweather-Jr-broke

    According to an article written by Greg Leon of www.boxingtalk.com, the former pound for pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr lost most of his money while dealing with a person named, Willie. Leon never produced a last name for Willie, but it's a known fact that Leon has a direct connection with little Floyd, and the entire Mayweather camp.


    Allegedly, Willie swindled so much money out of Mayweather that he was unable to pay taxes on his 2007 earnings. If this story is true, it's amazing that little Floyd would still be walking around flashing hundreds, and waving his "filthy rich" bling that he hangs around his neck.
    Leon also reports that Mayweather lost so much money that he came within inches of signing a 3 fight deal with boxing promoter Don King without consulting with his advisors Leonard Ellerbe and Al Haymon. According to the report, Haymon had to leave his sick mothers bedside and rush to block this deal from happening. Boxingtalk reported that Haymon gave Mayweather a substantial amount of money just to hold him off until payday.


    Will Floyd Mayweather Jr be another athlete that would rise to financial freedom only to fall back to earth broke and owing the IRS countless amounts of money? This writer believes that money without humbleness equals doom. It happens all too frequently, people who attain gross amounts of money like to flash it around as if saying, "look at me, I got all this so what do you got?" Perhaps a piece of humble pie will do little Floyd some good, who knows.

    Had PBF not make up a new testing procedure they would be fighting, this is fact. You can say whatever you want but if it wasn't for the unprecedented demand from PBF this fight would have been done, THAT IS FACT!!!!

    Actually, my question is why he retired at the peak of his career. It's not like he's running of quality opponents. He could have made a lot of money and still maintained his #1 P4P status.

    If the fight was so easy then why, oh why didn't he just sign the fight? Can you please explain why he just didn't sign the fight? Cause the one who pulled out was PBF. He wanted the extra testing when he could have just signed. Why did he ask for it if it was so easy of a fight?
