    Can't say I blame him! Hit the jackpot fighting Floyd twice.

    Seems he had gotten fat and lazy with those purses. You can tell that the money changed him from the way he acted at the press conferences from the first fight and the second one. He got all Hollywood and **** with the way he was dressing. I don't blame him but it is what it is.

    Well that's probably the reason he got into boxing in the first place: to hit the jackpot. He did and he's no longer motivated. If he comes back now he'll probably get his ass beat.

    would you go back to your office job after winning the lottery two times in one year?

    won titles, beat some good names and lost to the best but maxed out his potential nonetheless and got paid. good for him if he wants to kick it

    He earned everything. He deserves all the money he earned.

    He will be missed in boxing but fair play to him if he wants to retire now he's made his money.

    The memory of him making Broner his b*tch will live long in the memory for all boxing fans.

    He was already talking about retirement after the first Floyd fight by saying "rematch or retire". I hope he has invested his money wisely. He could be a good gatekeeper for Canelo at 155 while making a final payday though.

    Made enough money by securing two fights against the jackpot fighter of his era. Now I hope he can properly invest and doesn't end up forced to return when he doesn't want to.

    had a good career kind of a overachiever who got better later in his career. I'd like to see him fight a few more times but he put in 10years as a pro of exciting all action power punching, gave the best fighter on the planet 2 tough fights and got rich in the process now he's retiring in his early 30's to live the good life basically every fighters dream situation can't blame him for losing the hunger.
