    This was a masterstroke by Floyd he let the fighters beat each other up and then come back many people think Floyd is not smart but he really is he knew if he never retired he would have to fight these guys one by one.

    Kermit cintron

    Paul Williams

    Miguel cotto

    Shane mosley

    antonio margarito

    manny pacquiao

    Floyd made a very smart move and I give him credit for avoiding fights with these guys he himself says he likes to make "smart business moves"

    Man get outta here with this foolishness, half the guys you named ducked Mayweather and are on record doing so. the other half are bums and never was.

    Mayweather retired for the first time at the end of 07, Margarito and Williams both got there asses kicked that same year, Cintron get the **** outta here lol none of those guys are elite, top fighters, or great by any stretch.

    Cotto the guy who said he wasn't ready and that neither him, his trainer, or his promoter ever tried to fight Mayweather.
    Mosley the guy who ducked for 10 years then said he had a toothache.
    Pacquiao the guy scared of needles, or has a cut that won't heal.

    It's clear that he faked the retirement to duck all these fighters and only came back after they had fought and washed each other up

    It's a big difference between facts and opinions it's an opinion that he ducked these guys, but it's a fact that Cotto, Mosley and Pacquiao all ducked out of a Mayweather fight.

    It's an opinion that Mayweather was scared of a Margarito or a Williams, but what is a fact is that before he retired Mayweather fought the last two Undisputed WW Champs, Undisputed JWW Champ and the #1 JMW Champ all of which are more accomplished than Paul & Tony.
    Also a fact that Mayweather told Margarito keep winning and we gon fight and Margarito got his ass kicked in his very next fight.

    I know, but I also know he's a Pac fan and he said Mosley and Margarito "washed each other up" in 2008. Kind of counter-productive to his "mission" lol

    He retired to get out of his rematch clause with Oscar. That's the only way he could've gotten out of it.
