Mayweather runs this damn forum. Almost every thread about him has at least 100 replies, and every time there's a report about him this place turns into a ****ing madhouse. I'm sick of this run around bullshit. I want Floyd to come out and give us all an answer. It's unbelievable how much attention he can draw. I don't want to say it, but the man is still the hottest topic in boxing. People always want to know what he's gonna do next.
No doubt.
I want to hear from his mouth what he plans to do. I always try to avoid getting into the Floyd coming back hype, I'm waiting to hear from him that he's coming back. Although, I've always been sure he would come back, his career just didn't seem over, if you know what I mean.
Yeah, it seemed to you that he could of gone out on a higher note, and when it just seemed like he was peaking (in fairness when he announced retirement... he was on the top of his game).
Floyd's retirement was medical.That came out during one of those 24/7 shows.
He was strongly advised to retire or take quite some time away from boxing.
That's true I remember seeing this... that could have easily been one of the reasons for him retiring in the first place, either carry on for just a few more years or take a year and a half out to let your body heal over. Though I do think that his retiring was partly due to him being quite bored of the sport and his heart not being in it, wanting to have a break for some time.
Either way, I am not gonna jump to conclusions... nor get caught up in the hype, I am just gonna wait and see what happens... wait until I hear it come from himself, so then we know if he is or isn't coming back, whichever it is... I am not gonna jump to conclusions because there has been bullshit speculation about fighters in the past that aint true.
That's a good point, it is just I would like to know out of the way. I definitley get what your saying by leaving it too long and Haye vs Wladomir was a good example, but obviously Mayweather is a much bigger name than them so he would be able to leave it longer to let it build more (if you get what I mean?). Though you are right if he leaves it too long people will lose interest.

It's obvious why he isn't saying anything.
His family say something, Ellerbe says something else. It creates apprehension about whether he's coming back or not. He's letting that build, so if he does come back it will create more hype, as people have been waiting and getting pumped for it. Although, he is at risk of leaving it too long so people lose interest (See Haye-Wlad for details!)

I would just like to know. If he stays retired, I wish him all the best. If he decides to keep fighting, then I'll definitely be watching.
Where on the same page here mate, good post... thanks for the green karma by the way I will be returning.
Agreed, you know I am a fan of him and all but I just want to hear it from the horses mouth... if he isn't then fine fair enough his choice and if he is then cool, that's good only if his heart is in it. I am not gonna jump to conclusions, its either it is or isn't true and we will find out at some point... were just gonna have to wait and see.
I get what your saying though, I just want to hear him say whats happening so we can take his word for it... whether he is or isn't returning, because as you said things have been going crazy around here since that speculation.

Exactly...funny thing is his fans usually aren't the ones making these threads.
:lol1: That's always been a favourite of mine. When people complain about Floyd stans always talking about him, whilst creating 100s of Floyd ducked ______, Floyd is a bitch, _____ would KO Floyd etc types threads.
I just wish there could be more intelligent threads about him. All the threads about him are either "Mayweather would KO SRR in Round one" or "Mayweather is a bitch, he never fought Marg and lost to Castillo HOLMES!! WAAAAAHHHH!!!"
U get the picture.
Very true.
He did.
The point is, after every single WW fight of any note, the topic of discussion has been Mayweather. Judah-Clottey, everyone compared Clotteys win to Floyds. Cotto-Marg, everyone rambled about how Floyd ducked one or the other etc.
People can't keep his name out their mouths.
true, his name does get people talking

I thought he announced his retirement!?
Theres nothing to question, just ignore the b.s about him returning till he says it publicly
i doubt he will come back

Yea, Mayweather has always attracted attention through his "retirement". Even people who hate him and tell everyone to STFU about him reply to the topics about him, and bring him up often (He ducked _______) etc.
