What do you think was the reason why Mayweather came back from retirement?

He enjoys boxing.

 

Glory

Floyd clearly had the money and fame when he retired.

 

He was in need of money and thought that he could easily beat Pac who was the biggest name at the time. But things go horribly wrong when Pac starts to destroy guys he was supposed to lose to, and I'm talking about DESTROYS them. Pac even beats the crap out of the guy Floyd retired to avoid. Then Floyd realizes he made a mistake by coming back and the ducking began...

 

Combination of things probably. Hopefully he sorts his problems and we see the Pac fight.

 

probably a combination of missed being in the spotlight, missed the sport, wanted more money, and a smart option/fight against jmm was opened.

 

Money.
I think if he fights again his main motovation is going to be money.

 

Jealousy...

 

A combination of some of the choices.

 

Hence the nick name. I hope he came back for legacy too, and fights Pac or Martinez at 154.

 

Obviously, he thought it was an easy payday against Pac. Floyd made the announcement to fight Marquez right before Pac-Hatton fight. Then....

... Pac sent Hatton to unconsciousness (Floyds eyeballs fell off), then...
... TKO's De La Hoya (Floyds left ball fell off), then...
... TKO's Cotto (Floyds right ball fell off), then...
... Clottey (Floyds ***** fell off), then...
... Margarito (Floyd undergoes sex transplant).

 

. As I was writting what I wrote I realized the double meaning.
I do think that there is a lot of ego involved. However I think he is mostly in it for the $.

 

The most important....

Listen to the man, he wasn't going to let the game retire him...he needed the time off to heal those injuries, rejuvenate worn and inflammed tendons, ligaments and cartilage (remember those brittle hands, the chronically inflammed extensor tendons, the inflammed glenohumeral cartilage from repeated blows to the left shoulders and lumbosacral disc from repeated rotation/flexion/extension of the upper body about the lumbosacral axis), a man who has the best gym, advanced nutritionist, physiologist, orthopeadists and physiatrists money can by, from someone whose whole family believe in better living through chemistry. He looked fitter and bigger than ever when he weighed in for the Marquez fight, having trouble making the weight limit with bulging muscles...what better way to avail yourself of the best peds money can buy during a sham retirement period when you are not subjected to public, journalistic or commission inquiries/urine testings. And what better way when the challenge is a bit too intimidating to buy additional time and use the old tactic of the 'pot calling the kettle black', turning the table to deflect any suspicion that he in fact is the ped abuser!

 

:deal Made my day.

 

a combination of missing the attention and needing the money
