Comments Thread For: Arum: I'm Not Sure Floyd Mayweather Will Fight Again

[Jsmooth9876]

I agree judging by his recent comments about not having fun anymore.
Here's a question, what happens if he loses to Pac and they offer him a rematch and he refuses and retires instead. How does the public look at him after that?

What if he wins a very close decision and refuses to give Pac a rematch and retires instead? What will people say? I know people hate him with a passion already so I can just imagine the backlash

It has been a joke. Nothing has gone smoothly, only the press conference.

And you can clearly see thats down to Floyd, ellerbe ,haymon and espinoza who dont like
doing business with arum. People should give bob some credit
took a more backseat role to let some amateurs deal with the biggest fight in boxing
Must of been frustrating for the old guy

If top rank had more control everything would already be done

By staying more under the radar, whenever you do make a statement it is front page news.

Roach is mouthing off everyday to the point people don't care.

Mayweather makes a comment about how he can't say Ali or Robinson is better than him and it makes the headlines and people go crazy.

Marketing 101. Wait until fight week, the Mayweather's will really up the ante.

Thats why he doesnt have it anymore.

name one superstar boxer who has not hand picked his opponents.

pacman, oscar, srl, etc all had hand picked opponents

Wait, so you're saying Floydie isn't the biggest ducker ever? Yeah, others have chosen opponents, but no where near the level of ducking Floydie has done. Not even close.

We all know Floyd is going to go for the point system against manny. Floyd won't brawl with Pac. Too dangerous for floyd

He will, if he feels he can asorb Mannys shots....that determines the type of fight you will see.

if you think that ok imo no i just saying you guys act like he is the only guy who pick his opponents because of money, a guy who not on his level or because of the it's a future hof past his prime. manny dose it canelo dose oscar did it roy jones did it tyson did it etc.....

[Evol]

he's just saying this to justify when he loses to manny. he's gonna say its fine because i dont enjoy this sport anymore anyways. its clear as day what floyd is doing here.

[Evol]

he's setting it up so when he falls it wont hurt that much.

[Wizardsh]

With 180 + million to cash in win or lose would you blame him?

That's like winning the lottery and than still working two full time jobs. Enjoy the fruits of your labor.

But we're talking about a dumba$$ here who doesn't know how to manage his money and will be broke as soon as he retires

[licketysplityu]

If I was a Mayweather man I'd be worried about his mental outlook. He's really gone quiet and serious...apprehensive of what is to come. Fear setting in.
