    Only way Floyd's coming back is if he is offered somethin outrageous price wise or if that money's looking low. But I doubt it. If Floyd is doing smart things with his money(well at least some of it) he shouldn't need to fight again. Manny should fight Hatton and see wat Guzman's doing.

      If that's Mayweather's incentive for returning to the ring, there are other fighters out there who would rake in millions against Mayweather.
      You are trying to selll a Pac vs Floyd fight short like it doesn't make sense right now. It does....it's a hot matchup for P4P supremacy.

      You usually don't get two great P4P fighters in the ring together unless one of em is past his prime. Not this time.....this is a legacy type fight, it's more then just money.

        I'm not saying is doesn't.....i'm just sayin that Mayweather should quit talking like he's retired when he himself knows he's not retired. He just wants attention so people will beg him to get out of retirement like: "Floyd, come out of retirement we need you."

        Gimme a break. Which is why i'm sayin forget about Mayweather. He didn't have to go through all the dramatics and saying, "I'm retired...yadda yadda yadda." Then make excuses about being retired like: "There's no money out there for me to be interested in"

          Leonard came out of retimrement and "beat" (contoversial) the great middleweight champion Marvin Hagler. No tune ups, nothing.

          Either way, Mayweather said he was taking a 24 month layoff after the Hatton fight. He's been fighting since age 6. And unlike Hatton or Delahoya, he hasn't been getting loose drinking and getting fat and got tired of boxing.

          But he'll get up for this one, it's worth it, money wise and legacy.

            Most of the talk about Floyd is being brought up by his haters. Those douchebag internet toughguys are so obessesed with him they will look for any way to bring his name up and **** on him. Get a life, seriously haters.

              fight at what? 147 or 140. I would suggest 140. Isn't Mayweather 5'8 or something? He's not towering over Pacquiao in height.

              We'll see in '09 if he wants to come out.
