    “Being a Muslim, I’d like to take the whole of Ramadan off..I’d like to fight away from Ramadan. So if the fight is against Mayweather in September, it would be hard for me to make because I need to be training in July, but I don’t think that’s going to happen because I need a couple months to prepare. And also, when you’re fasting from sunrise to sunset, it’s a long time not having water. You need a month kind of to recuperate, not eating all that time. So I’m going to sit down with my team, and getting past this Collazo fight is the main thing first, and then see what we can plan for the future.”

    Maybe this is why Mayweather is talking about retiring again, he doesn't seem to have any attractive options for Septemer. We'll have to see what happens.

    Lara and Porter are fighting in July. They won't be ready for September. Cotto is probably going to lose to Martinez. That just leaves Thruman. That's a tough sell for September.

    Floyd's talking retirement because khans not available for September? Are you ok? What has khan done aside from getting obliterated by Garcia and dropped by the fossil Diaz. Bradley would be a better match up and he's more deserving.

    I don't know why Mayweather is talking retirement. However, he doesn't seem to have many options for September. As such, I jokingly suggested that the lack of options out there was the reason for him contemplating retiring.
