    Floyd's a primadona. He'll rewrite history and even his own memory to further inflate his self image.

    Not sure if it makes him a draw but it definatley ups his money and puts him in a better negotiating position.

    YES basically. I thought he may be happy with the Oscar money and quit, I'm glad he seemingly hasn't quite the sport.

    He could never have retired properly at this point, simply because people would continue to say he has yet to prove he is a great with so many fighters to take on. His ego could not have handled it sitting at home listening to all that talk.

    Mayweather was having a hissy fit after the Baldomir fight.He didn't like Merchants questions , I guess he was expecting Larry to fawn all over him.He went to the press conference and started to blubber like a hysterical chick and said he would retire.Kind of like the kid who takes his ball and goes home because he doesn't like the way the game is going.
    Floyds got potential to be one of the greatest fighters ever, but he is like a chick during her menses sometimes.
