    I believe Floyd is tired. I think he loves the sport, but is no longer 100% physsically, and it's tiring. I feel he is going to beat Hatton, and convincingly and retire. Maye 1 more fight, but that will be it. I believe he is going to continue with his promotion company. He'll always be connected to the sport. He can not fight forever and the longer he continues with his ailments, the sooner he will approach that dredded 0, which he vehemently resents the thought of.
    That is the sport retire when you are at the top eventully you will lose someday.

I think he will allow Cotto to clear out the division i.e. dispose of Margarito and Cintron/Williams winner and will fight him in his final bout next year for his 40th win.

    If you look back in history many came back for that bout the public demanded for their legacy. And the few times they dont they have to go with a cloud over there shoulder ie. Lennox Lewis.

    He won the IBF title against Judah but dropped it. Floyd Mayweather fight only for the WBC belt

        No, I didn't mean to say that. If you look for my posts, I think Mayweather will school Hatton and win at least 9 rounds doing so. That being said, he already retired once and came back. I don't think he did it for the money. He did it for the pride. However, his pride is what will keep him from fighting Cotto. He HATES Bob Arum and doesn't want him to make a dime off of his name. He will never fight Cotto while he's a Top Rank fighter, mark my words. Floyd's history with Bob is almost as bad as his history with his dad.

            Mayweather likes the money too much. He will not Retire...

            His body will contiue to suffer...

            AFTER/IF Cotto gets big enough and he beats cotto *(or Q-man--I smell upset with williams)... hen that will really be it..

            Unless he moves up to fight edison miranda lol... and that will never happen hahaha 1.

              he will not fight with williams cause paul hasn't the big name like hatton and cotto this fight will not make dollars,and what don't make dollars don't make sense

                For **** sake. How many "dollars" does he need to make? At what point does pride step in? You can't secure a legacy by fighting the Arturo Gatti's of the boxing world. IMO, it has less to do with "dollars" and more to do with not wanting to lose that "0"

                  he don't want to lose ''0'' too and he knows that with paul he can lose the
                  "0" and make less money that with hatton or cotto,so there is no advantages here and so it won't happen

                    How does Floyd still have a belt after over a year without defending it? How is Floyd the #1 ranked WW in the world after not fighting at WW for over a year?

                    Floyd will retire after fighting Hatton, AGAIN. And then he will come back and fight with the lure of another 20 million bucks to make.
