Comments Thread For: Mayweather Retirement Hint: If I Choose To Walk, I Walk

[loui_ludwig]

As a Mayweather fan, this sounds like the first retirement ALL over again.

Back then it was

Paul Williams 154
Sergio Martinez 154
Miguel Cotto - undefeated
Antonio Margarito

Now it's

Keith Thurman
Shawn Porter
Manny Pacquiao
Lara

And Mayweather doesn't seem to want any of those guys, seems like hes gonna let them fight it out and come back to pick off the easiest acceptable fight.

I was about to post this.

And still didn't answer my question why your Daddy did not include his latest demands on their first negotiations?

When cornered play the intellect card. I encountered countless of your type, without the spell check and this latest technologies, engine search, etc, etc; you my boy, like any other punks that I encountered are lost and have that look like a deer staring straight on a headlight of an incoming vehicle.

When you say "my momma," and "Your daddy," you're telling on yourself. In negotiations, there is an "A" side and a "B" side. The "A" side always calls the shots. The demands can't be ridiculous like "NO PPV," but they can be reasonable like "take a blood test." When the negotiations fail, the two sides go their separate ways. When the negotiations resume, if the "A" side remains the same position or stronger, the demands change, because the "B" side caused the failure of the first negotiation (which Roach admits.) Now during the second round, if the "B" side ****s up again (which everyone knows that Arum killed it with cuts, stadiums, etc.) the "A" side will make the demands even harsher, probably to belittle the "B" side, because the "A" side feels they are in a WAY stronger position, i.e. the "A" side just broke the revenue earnings record of the entire history of the sport. After winning the top 2 greatest PPV events in all of boxing, and 3 of the top 10 in the history of the sport, Floyd is firmly in the "A" side, not to mention Manny lost (not really) to Bradley, and got KO'd by Marquez. Manny's options are a) leave Arum, and fight Floyd, b) stay with Arum and hope he and Oscar can get him some GBP fights, c) Fight the weak TR stable, or d) retire. Hopefully this explains why the demands keep changing. Good night.

p.s. I'm glad to hear you served, or are serving. I already completed my 21 years of service, and I am happily retired. Good Luck, and God Speed!

LAS VEGAS --- Floyd Mayweather talked about how his fight against Marcos Maidana on Saturday night at the MGm Grand on Showtime PPV could be his final fight.

Mayweather, who will receive a $32 million purse on Saturday, is in the third fight of a six-fight contract with Showtime, but there are days when he ponders hanging up his gloves.

If Floyd retires he will be back because he will need the $ and miss the attention.

When you're the boss, you can do that. When you're under contract with a boss, you shut up and do as you're told. However, there are plenty who don't mind testing, and wouldn't mind $40 million dollars too. It's Manny's loss. Good luck with Marquez 5, or Alvarado.
