Big roadblocks ahead:
1. Floydy still retired. Not a peep out of him. Rumours multiply like rabbits in spring over his comeback. DUH! Problem being that re-retirements have the edge over comebacks at this point.
2. He has no promoter and backed out of mid promotion of his last fight to retire, complaining about slave wages that he says made him a billionaire. Who would risk money and effort to have him pull another retirement?
3. Arum. Floydy used Arum as the reason for not fighting Cotto and Marg. Nothing has changed.
4. If he's the best of this era, has a billion bucks in the bank, and was tired with the sport, where's the incentive to come back? Is he tired of being the bestest and only billionaire boy boxer in history?
5. Manny/Ricky is a done deal. With the money on the table and ready for deposit with two willing warriors in perfect alignment, well, promoters don't sacrifice multi millions in the bank for ethereal Floydy in the skye porky pie styled fantasies.
6. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Floydy claims to have it, and in the middle of global financial meltdown, no way can Floydy match his previous projected 20-30 million that he already retired rather than collect.
7. Fans: Manny has herds of them all over the world, and Floydy has them in 50 cent's designer hiphop shorts. Can Floydy endure the humiliation of being booed in his hometown of Vegas yet again?
Maybe the fight happens, but Floydy gonna have to show he's ready to fight. Arum has mapped out a golden goose retirement program for Manny who wants to become a politician back home. It don't include Floydy and why should it? He already went through this nonsense with the Gatti fight. Nothing has changed, nor will change unless money is on the table. Problem being, now we're back to #1, money being retired, not on the table waiting to enter the ring.
Why on earth would Floydy want to give all this up for hardships of training for slave wages????
