Floyds Future...

[The Wild Card]

Im a little confused a few recent turn of events...

In one of the recent episodes of 24/7 for Floyd V Cotto, I vividly remember Floyd n Uncle Roger having a convo in the car with Floyd saying he considering around 6 or 7 fights after this and that he wants to retire before he's 37.

Even before this he was eyeing Martinez at whatever weight...

Now after the cotto fight he has none or limited options and is pondering retirement?

Anyone wanna shed some light on this??

Thanks in advance :-)

I don't know...

Maybe he felt like he'd slipped a bit in the ring, and feels he isn't as good as he wants to be.

Perhaps he's just trying to create some drama, it's more likely the latter imo.

He's done a lot once he beats someone people pull another guy out thier ass to try and fight floyd. At the moment it's pacquiao and don't get me wrong pacquaio has a good chance to win, but if floyd goes on to beat him they will just find another bandwagon to jump on, floyds not getting younger and cant fight forever. Because he's undefeated people just want to see who can beat him but when he decides to retire for good people will always say "what if he fought this guy" or "he retired to duck that guy" there will always be excuses but the fact of it is he has nothing much to proove.
I don't see him fighting 5 more fights id say he has 3 more maximum

Floyd Jr as per your thread has already said he gonna have 6-7 fights before he retires at 37.

I think that's it...

^^^^This.

I still think Roger is right. Once Floyd gets out of jail, and starts thinking about making around 30 million per fight, he'll want to fight again.

If he doesn't fight again, will I be upset??? Of course. I want to see him fight again, probably 4-5 more times, but if he doesn't, oh well. He's still around the Top 30 All-Time, and has beaten laods of good fighters.
