Why did PBF retire in the first place????

[COACH WEBB]

I believe it was to rest his body since he had been going basically NON stop since he started fighting. The 24/7 for the Hatton fight showed that his hands were really taking a beating. Therefore, I think the most recent "retirement" was to rest his body so that he could be healthier in the BIGGER fights down the road. With that being the case, I'm looking forward to seeing him fight the BIG NAMES out there now...Pac and Cotto...

I've been thinking about PBF's so called "retirement" for a while now and my su****ions were answered during PBF's interview with B. Kenny... During that interview PBF stated that while he was away on "retirement" the top welterweights were going around beating each other.... This statement spoke volumes... I think it is clear as day this situation of all the welters "beating" each other was what PBF planned all along...

After the Hatton fight, who was PBF going to fight??? He definitely wasnt going to fight a top welter and he refused to rematch DLH probably to the split decision and the potential in losing to DLH....

So, fast forward nearly two years later, SSM lost to Cotto, Cotto lost to Margarito, and Margarito is out the picture... Who is getting the attention now?? Yup, you guessed it, fighters that are well under the 147 limit... And, all of the sudden he comes back and fights a damn lightwieght???

Fighters who retire usually start living and get "fat" so to speak... But, we have learned that during PBF's so called retirement he has trained just as before, and has sparred throughout his year and a half haitus...

Now, tell me is this all too much to be a coincidence????

he quit to spite dlh. dlh wouldn't give floyd the lion's share in the rematch (dlh never gives anyone the lion's share).

with dlh and hatton beaten, there was no one else that could make him the kinda money he wanted.

if cotto didn't quit against margo, i'm sure cotto would've gotten dlh and then floyd would come back to fight cotto.
