    So you think he's really going to fight again? Maybe against Conor McGregor?

      Its better to have lost and avenge a loss than to have been undefeatted with lesser competition. At the end of the day a better win trumps over easier ones without losing.There are exceptions if someone truly dominates in their prime and is that impressive that chances of them losing is remote and they cleaned out an entire era and fought everyone available . Of course you have to take into account relevance of opposition if one does dominate without losing .Fighters should be viewed in prime years not overall career ,having better wins when it counts is how you should rate fighters not on being undefeatted .

The reason will be because in today's world of social media and public scrutiny a lot more of Floyd Jr's dirty laundry is public knowledge. There are rumors but no proof of Rocky or his team having ties to the Mob.
        organized crime was linked to boxing from 1920 to 1960 it impacted many of the fighters involved.

          Was wondering what would fight fans consider more impressive. Staying undefeated or defeating every opponent ever faced?
          Well it depends on the quality of opposition faced. Lewis beat every man he faced but also got KOd by c level fighters.

            We all know Floyd will fight again!

            He does need the money!

            He needs the stage, the crowd and in a way the boo's!

              So you've heard the rumors of him wanting to box Conor McGregor in September?

              And a guy like him must have a pretty steady income stream by now or enough to last a while.

              Plus he probably has people that take care of financial matters for him.

                Hahahahahahaha. Great stuff!! Excellent!

                  Floyd's ego and need to be the center of attention will bring him back!

                    Or
                    Like Brian Mitchell who lost his second fight of his career. Avenged that loss, Won the Rubber. Drew 3 times. Won the Rematches of two of them and retired. then came out of Retirement to win the rematch with the other guy that he drew with. Ending with a 45-1-3 record therefore defeating every opponent he ever faced.
                    Thanks for that one, AneesMoha!

                      Before they reconciliated, MW senior spoke the bitter truth about his son's financial propensities--rather than becoming a billionaire, his son would be walking the streets of Grand Rapids broke a few years after he retired.

                      Junior goes through money like water. Every time his accountants turn around they are forking over another $150,000 for him to bet on sports events. He is a steady loser. Sports cars, mansions, parties where you foot the entire bill, these all swallow money like a great white. Silly recording studio ventures et al, are sure to be big losers. His advisors get their cuts whether his fortunes wax or wane.
