Floyd Mayweather should just retire, his legacy is set

when you get a breai between bong hits and madden on PS3, decide whether ESPN did or didn't write an article about floyd being broke. I don't recall seeing that article. I think you simply ran with something you saw posted here. Yeah basically. He might want to amend that to "tell b o x i n g t a l k to stop writing letters about Floyd!"

Well not ESPN themselves, just Dan Rafeal, not sure if that would be considered as ESPN, but he does represent them.

I remember reading it around the time when Mayweather came back against Ortiz, and Rafeal I guess was feeding into the talk of Mayweather coming back for money due to his issues with the IRS and being broke. Which they call, in-responsible journalism to follow up on things not proven fact. I dunno man, I wish I had whatever money Mayweather does have, don't like to sit around thinking about other peoples money. Yeah, I don't think it was Rafael who wrote that. In fact, I'm pretty sure it wasn't. Besides, IRS issues doesn't equal going broke.

Depends - on whether he wrote it for them or on twitter or elsewhere. I never saw this piece by Rafael stating that Floyd is broke. Have you? Wanna read it.

There isnt a fighter from 140-154 that can beat him. I want to see him fight on.

Nah Im not a homeowner, I'm only 23, in college, living life, spending alone. But seriously man, you should really look into Emailing ESPN and other boxing websites so they know to stop making articles about Floyd being broke. ESPN wrote an article about Mayweather being broke? Yikes.

I can see you are not a homeowner. when mommy and daddy come home ask them how a mortgage is obtained. Nah Im not a homeowner, I'm only 23, in college, living life, spending alone.

Don't tell me that, here's what you do....Go write a letter to ESPN, other media websites, and one to 50 Cent while you at it, on how pissed you are that your idol Floyd is spending like a drunk sailor. And maybe you can stop them from spreading those nasty lies about your baby Floyd. Someone's a tad upset.

Not nearly enough to be troubled at 147 IMO. Decline is a funny thing. It's hard to notice until the night they lose it all. Mayweather is 36, inactive and is slowing quickly. If he fights Guerrero or Canelo, it will be very, very competitive.

I don't think they think he's broke. But he fought twice last year for a reason. And 50 said he don't have money like everyone thinks he does. your the 2nd person that referenced what 50 said. is that a source you trust?

i think he can retire... but the stigma remains, whether warranted or unwarranted.... he will be known for avoiding big fights. the same way manny will be known for catchweights... i think floyd's greatness was defined at 130's... so that alone makes him HOF worthy... but i think he chose not to go for ATG status and instead went for the money. smart.... but fans cant get butt-hurt when his name isnt mentioned with the likes for leonard, hearns, hagler, robinson, etc. in regards to greatness.... but his talent is ATG material no doubt, but some still place him behind pernell. IMO, i say he seriously consider 154 since he is a beltholder... lots of choices for him...

Huh? that is all speculation. Floyd once said something that I think any homeowner here can understand: they don't give yhou a mortgage for a $17 million dollar home if you are broke. when you see him on youtube with all that money, dont assume he spends it. it goes right back to the bank. Don't tell me that, here's what you do....Go write a letter to ESPN, other media websites, and one to 50 Cent while you at it, on how pissed you are that your idol Floyd is spending like a drunk sailor. And maybe you can stop them from spreading those nasty lies about your baby Floyd.

He's already showing real signs of decline. A lot of them, actually. Not nearly enough to be troubled at 147 IMO.
