    People.

    Floyd isn't the first person to scam the public. If he has a target audience that is willing to pay yo support his lavish lifestyle, so be it.

    He's younger than Wlad who takes on AJ. He needs to take on ggg to match what wlad is doing.

    I think so too. Floyd is beatable at this stage in his career. The money may be too good to stay retired though.

    Beatable by an elite welterweight boxer, yes. And that's a tough call already considering Floyd's skill level and discipline in preparation.

    Beatable by a guy with ZERO pro boxing bouts, with ZERO amateur experience and whose only claim to fame is a series of WWE style MMA exhibition bouts? Not a chance. Floyd knows this is a mismatch and easy money -- he went after the Mexican's money by picking off their local heroes.

    Now he found a MMA fighter with a loyal following who are totally oblivious to boxing history. Now Floyd will take THEIR money. Some of them actually think their man has a chance in a boxing match and Floyd will make a clown of him in a totally one-sided mismatch. Good for him. This will be an expensive lesson for all those MMA idiots betting on their supposed miracle man.

    Who is he ACTUALLY going to fight if it's a boxer? When will he be fighting?
    It was obvious he was going to come back for 50-0.
    It has been said that he took this 'retirement' to jump on a very, very strong PED cycle that won't in any way be detected by the time he fights.

    Floyd is a grown ass American citizen...he can fight whoever he wants to fight.
    But I'm not paying to see him fight. Not McGregor (!), not Pacman, not anyone.

    Its his first fight out of retirement. If the opponent is any of the top guys itll be huge. It wont be nobody other than McGregor. Floyd ALWAYS takes the path of least resistence.

    I thought he's only going to come out of retirement for the Conor fight. Who really wants to see him fight Conor? We all know he's going to win that.

    If he comes out of retirement I want to see him against a young fresh lion like Brook or Thurman. Brook will give him a tough fight.

    Floyd backpedaled on his statement that he will only fight McGregor on comeback fight.

    "I'm only coming out of retirement for one person and that's Conor McGregor."

    Gggs punches wouldn't hurt maywesther? I'd say floyd would have to fight a perfect defensive fight and his reactions aren't what they were
