Please Floyd Fans, Give Me The Real Reason Floyd Retired!!!!!

He retired because he became bored with the sport and wanted to do other things. That's why he was doing shows like Dancing With Stars and WWF. Another reason is that he felt he accomplished everything he could in the sport and had nothing else to prove. I can assure you that it wasn't because of fear of the guys you mentioned.

 

There was no one else to fight ...

 

Probably thinks he's made enough money not to have to bother any more

 

He didnt want brain damage facing elite welterweights.

 

Floyd is my favorite fighter, but I think the man has Attention Defecit Disorder, Just has to much going, starts one thing before he finishes another, and whatever project he does seems to work out for him pretty good, I just think he gets bored and distracted easy. But i have a feeling he will be back, but he better not wait to long, he is his prime now and does want that to pass him by. Theses are some tough fighters in the ww division and if he sits on the shelf to long, they will rip him a new *******.

 

Absoloutly correct, Bonao. Except for the most dedicated Jockswingers, most fans will look back at Floyd as a guy with the tools, but also as a guy who retired too early. There were some good wins, like Castillio, Chavez, and Hernandez, and one really excellent win over Corrales. But given the oppertunity to master the toughest division in boxing today, Floyd chose to talk snotty and avoid Williams, Margarito and Cotto. Without a real signature win to his credit, and his horrible personality, he'll soon be forgotten long after people are still talking about his contepmeraries like Paquiao and Barerra, who both fought everybody of any conseqence in their divisions.

 

i guess there's no fire left in him and he's tired of fighting...

 

why did lennox lewis retire?

 

I wouldn't be suprised if he came out of retirement for a mega-fight.

If the winner of Margo-Cotto faces DLH then Mayweather may un-retire again to face the last man standing out of those three.

I had a sneaking suspicion this was Floyd's plan from the start. It whittles the main contender's down to one and gives Floyd a prolonged break from the sport which is what he wanted.

However the proposed DLH-Pac fight throws a spanner in the work's. I don't think Floyd thought that fight was possible when he announced his retirement.

 

kidding right? mosley, oscar, margarito, cotto, williams, PAC.... plenty of guys out there for him to fight!
definetly not the reason.. !

because of this man.....


edit.....but on a serious note, i beleive it was because he wanted more low risk-high wage fights out there....and the only one available was PBF-ODLH II, but after Oscar's last performance failing to convice the public that there was any reason for Oscar to fight the p4p champ, and failing to convice us to buy it....he new that the fight went out the window that night, so he decided to retire, thats what i think
