    :deal He can fight Cotto, Martinez, Khan and several other fighters. It doesn't matter. People will still pay and watch.

    Larry has been at Floyd for years. Hell he was on his ass when Floyd was at 130 hating. Floyd could fight whoever he wants and they will pay him for it.

    Like I said, as long as he keeps producing the biggest numbers...they will keep putting him on PPV, Pacquiao or not. The 3 main PPV stars in the US are Cotto, Mayweather and Pacquiao.

    he doesn't want to fight period, he's sick of it and constantly having to prove himself and not getting the recognition he thinks he deserves.

    I mentioned that earlier. He changed after he beat Baldomire. He started that **** legacy and pay me attitude. Plus he has been in boxing his entire life. It was forced on him from the day he was born. **** he should be tired of it by now.

    Not getting recognition? One fight vs a 35 yr old lightweight and he instantly elevated from 0 to p4p 1 status by yahoosports and a few other writers. p4p #2 by the rest including the ring.

    He claims he is the GOAT that is why. And FFS, the Mayweather Jr/Sr/Roger are the most vocal boxing personalities in boxing to discredit other fighters and trainers (retired or active).

    I think he is too lose his 0 but at the same time wants to be relevant and talked about in the sport and get big money fights, thats why isnt retiring,just waiting for the right time to fight pac/khan/ortiz/cotto is my opinion.

    Floyd's just tired of boxing and wants to enjoy his money, it's not got anything to do with Pacquaio, he could easily fight and make 30-40million every 6months with or without Pacquaio people would buy it. But he's tired of the sport and has been talking about retirement since 2006. Then on top of all that there are the court cases. Floyd will be back, he'll probably fight Pacquaio
