    He should leave it there (50-0, beat the second biggest combat star, probably going to break the PPV record again) it's a great way to end your career. But...

    We all know the man is addicted to money. But will he stay retired and make do with what he has? Or does he eventually go broke and come back for one more?

    So he just had a two year hiatus, and boy is that long by his standards, but it's hard to put Floyd and the word "retirement" in the same sentence.

    If he blows his money then and has to come back and gets beat then it'll be his own stupid fault and I won't feel sorry for him.

    He's got super rich forever kind of money as long as he's not a Tyson-level idiot.

    What people don't realize is that the more money people have the more expensive are the things they purchase and that tends to nullify their riches. So it isn't at all far-fetched to have Mayweather feeling pinched for money and looking for another big payday because of having mindlessly squandered his earnings.


    Here is an example:

    BTW
    He immediately splurged away 2 million dollars on celebrating his recent victory.

    Why is he so obsessed with watches? Put it into stocks & bonds or franchises.

    Mike bought Tigers. Tigers cost NOTHING compared to the watches that Floyd buys.

    Floyd has been an even bigger idiot than Mike with his money.

    Mike was foolish enough to trust Don King. That's literally the quickest way to blow through hundreds of millions of dollars short of starting an international war.

    There was this lady who lived in a room in NYC which was barely large enough for her to back in and lie down. When she won the lotto she immediately began traveling all over the world until all the money was all gone. Then she calmly returned to NYC and backed into the room and lay down again as usual.

    BTW
    Here is the type of car that catches Floyd's eyes.

    He could buy a far less expensive one but since he has the money he must splurge.

    He will go broke. He doesn't behave like a wealthy man, more like a lottery winner.

    Would it be fair to say that Sugar ''Money'' Mac retired Floyd?

    If he could find another cakewalk against a guy who can't fight I'm sure he would do it for the right price. If he thinks he can sell a rematch against McGregor for super bucks I'm sure he would do it. Maybe if Canelo beats GGG he could do another Canelo fight but that might be a bit much for him at his age. All the other guys don't have the drawing power to make it worth the risk for Floyd:lupie:
