Did Floyd "retire" in 2007 because he was shook by the 147 division heating up?

    See what I mean-you are crapping on it only because it's floyd. Typical.

    It's friday night. Go out and be smooth, J.
    Those days of going out and partying are long gone my man lol..that's why I argue boxing online on a Friday night haha....

      And by the time manny went to welter I'm pretty sure Williams was gone fighting at like 158 against Martinez? And he blew Margarito out when they did fight so.....but tony wasn't at his best..he was when he called Floyd out to his face though haha...

        Mayweathe said he "retired", he was done with boxing. Yet he conviniently came back when the devision cooled off, he unretired himself when there was no threats to keep his "0".


        This hurts his ATG status dramaticly.

            No he wasn't. Larry already posted what happened with margs.

            Shane and hatton are better than any ww win manny has-except maybe 145 lb cotto. No other way around it.

            It's cool to hate floyd, but don't make yourself look foolish doing it.

              Floyds peers at 147 he will be judged against in throughout history are prime marg, prime cotto, pacquiao and clottey. He obviously made the right choice in avoiding those fights from a personal standpoint, but they're still missing from his resume no matter what his fans say.

                  bradley is obviously better than hatton, all round and def at weltweight

                    Foolish? You're telling me Floyd beating Hatton at 147 is better then beating Bradley at 147? Yeah ok buddy.. And Remember what Manny did to Hatton in his natural division? I know Floyd remembered it lol. And Cotto was better then both of them partner. Remember Cotto beat a fresher Shane then Floyd and manny did. He was the class of 147 with Margarito and Williams. Floyd came in, fought a bum in Baldomir then ran from all of them. It's ok that the man you love is a ducking coward...you'll still wake up tomorrow and love him anyway.

                      * then he comes back, drags JMM up 2 divisions, gives him a CW of 144, still cheats Juan on the scales and Floydiots consider it an amazing win
