Mayweather Returns!!!

[Dan...]

I would never want to see a hatton floyd rematch. Floyd made easy work of him the first fight, why would they bother fighting again?

Probably because they can make an absolute gutload of money for doing it.

Roberto Duran was smaller then Mayweather.. he went all the way up to S. Middleweight and fought some of the greatest middleweights of all time.

duran was shorter not smaller than mayweather???and do you think mayweather should go to 168???didnt think so

Pacquiao does good numbers against known names, the Solis fight didn't do too well but that didn't get much hype at all and was done by Top Rank. I don't think the numbers were ever released for Pacquiao-Diaz.

No problem.

My mistake, Pacquiao-Solis was rumored to be around 350k but I don't think the numbers were ever released for that one either but yeah, Pacquiao does good numbers against known names, Mayweather is a known name so that would be a big event if it comes off.

Call me selfish, but I was hoping Floyd was feeling the squeeze of the financial crisis just so I could see him in the ring again

[Njord777]

Honestly a one year lay-off isn't a true retirement. A retirement, from a historical standpoint, is only going to be viewed as such in hindsight- I think- if it's a few years long. Two, three at least. Not fighting for a year and a half is a hiatus, a brief respite from the sport's punishment and, to be honest, probably a marketing strategy to milk more money by making it a 'comeback fight'.

Why do you think Roger stopped training Emanuel Augustus? HBO said, "family matter"........ which just happens to be FLOYD MAYWEATHER.

At 144?...I KNOW Ricky Hatton is not considering going back up to 147 again is he?
