    A high ranking p4p boxer like Floyd must fight at least twice a year like his p4p peers does. It is not fair for his fellow p4p peers to risk their boxing record by fighting twice a year while Floyd does not risk anything by fighting only once in a blue moon. In order to qualify for a p4p slot, a boxer should at least fight twice a year..

    Although I would love to see him fight more, I think Floyd fighting once a year helps draw marketability and excitement.

    I do kind of agree with the P4P thing. It is hard to call someone #2 (or even #1) P4P is they are hardly even active. Floyd doesn't need to fight anymore than he does, is the answer to the question. Since he fights so rarely, when he does fight, he gets huge PPV. He would earn more in total if he fought more but not more per fight. Floyd is such a frustrating guy for any boxing fan.

    He fights once a year.. He doesn't fight the best. Ohh and he wants 50 million a fight! Void is such a Diva, he's very bad for boxing! Void is Void.. He's ducking Pac, he knows Pac would KO him in 2 rounds. Void would become a KO highlight for years to come if he steps in the ring with the Pac Monster! Everyone knows it, EVERYONE..

    He's a semi retired boxer. He tried to retire completely but he couldnt stay away, therefore he only fights when he's lusting for the huge fight atmosphere & the attention it brings. Even Lennox has urges to fight at times but opts not to
