    Honestly, I have mixed feelings about this.
    It seems inevitable Floyd will return.
    The guy has got some serious boxing talent.
    But he has also got a big mouth.
    A recent video showed him drunk, calling Oscar and Hatton "pussies". Is this the kind of guy boxing needs? a disrespectful trash talker, and part time WWE performer?
    If Floyd comes back, is he going to take boxing seriously? fight the main guys in his division, or is he going to cherry pick fights that make the most money instead of testing himself and his skills against the best out there.
    So what do you think guys, do you want Floyd back?
    or would it signal the return of the single most gay term in the English langauge "Money-May" to ESB...

    A great fighter, but when he talks he sounds stupid and primitive.

    who's he going to fight? Rematch Hatton and DLH? Take on Berto?
    if he's not willing to take risks then he might as well not come back, he has nothing left to prove and his legacy is secure, and the last thing I want to see is more Floyd hugging BS.

    The ''I DON'T CARE'' option is God here.
     
  5. Let the little ***** stay retired, i can't stand the *******, his fight's wern't even very exciting, there's plenty of new up and coming fighters to watch, who the **** needs Mayweather?? but he will probaly fight again in a few years when the cash starts to run out, the way he throws $$$$ on bling, and cars, and his yes men, he'll probaly have no choice but to fight again, by then he will be older, slower and very beatable...

    id like to see him return
     
  10. Margarito, Paul Williams, or id even settle for Kelly Pavlik, but we all know it will never happen because those guy's are all very capable of kicking his ass..

    Only if he is going to take on someone other than Hatton or De la Hoya. If not then he should stay retired.

    Here is a doubtful quote i found on wikipedia that floyd said about coming back. it looks pretty sketchy since there is no other source and anyone can edit wikipedia.

    "I have not come out of retirement and will not be anytime in the future. I have considered the Hatton re-match in England but I honestly believe Hatton is a great fighter and the crowd support over there would be too much for me. I want to quit at my best and keep my unbeaten streak. I doubt fighting in England against the 'Hitman' would do me any favors with that in mind."

    Sounds like a hater wrote this....
