    Yeah but hes so secure that he doesn't need to fight, so just does it when hes feeling it. Not as much drive.

        Because it's easier to defend not fighting Pacqauio once a year than 2-3 times a year.

          I think it's because he simply doesn't need to. He will only fight if the money is right he doesn't fight for the plaudits so he will have 1 huge fight a year for mega bucks then he won't need to fight again because he's sorted for the rest of the year money wise.

            He needs to fight 2-3 times a year, hes not getting younger. He needs to fight so that he can stash more money for his flashy lifestyle when hes retired on the sport.

              people are ******. obviously alot of you forget that floyd took a two year retirement. if you look at all his fights at WW plus his retirement and return. you will see that hes fought twice a year.

                its pretty complicated for floyd to fight the right man to fight, and even when he does fight them is usually when the fight is not as hot as it coulda been
                megafights are what makes a fighter great and floyd needs to land one soon because honestly in his last "megafights" he was a +300 +400 favorite hardly a mega fight imo
                Forget pacquiao that thing aint getting done Floyd needs to move on like pacman did and not prove because he has done that but gain popularity with wins instead of gaining it with legal troubles

                  This is Mayweather's deliberate strategy,he already said when he fights it's a superbowl,it has to be an event.Needless to say when Floyd fights you know where all the A-listers will be,Las Vegas spending money.It's like who is who will be in the desert,in everyone will be glued to the screens.Right now he hasnt even announced his fight yet there are more threads of Mayweather than Manny-Margarito,that shows the public's appetite for Mayweather's fights.
