Comments Thread For: SHO's VP: Mayweather Stands Firm That Next Fight is Last

Fat Dan ain't got a clue.

I agree. And I suspect that him and a lot of dudes drop info on Mayweather...that they get from sources like Top Rank and GBP

[Moop]

Even if that were the case you can cross HBO right off the list. Doubt he ever goes there.

Don't doubt it, Floyd will go where the dollars are.

Remember-

Showtime will bid whatever. Floyd doesn't need them to do that now that he's got the attention of the parent company. I think if he fights again, it's on Showtime or CBS. But HBO? Nah...

And I don't pay attention to Rafael when it comes to Floyd. HBO, Top Rank, everything else? Yes. Floyd? Nah. Wasn't he the one claiming the Mayweather-Cotto rematch would happen instead of May-Pac? Who was his source for that? I don't think Dan has a pipeline to Floyd. Plus Epinoza is refuting what he said. Sounds like opinion anyway.

I understand CBS/SHowtime. IMO its an easy fight to go out to keep the 50th fight in play. I also understand Floyd wanting the right to sign a new deal since he completed the showtime deal.

maybe Floyd wants showtime/hbo to get in a bidding war

9/12 Floyd fight still not set. Issues there. Floyd says he***39;s retiring but Show/CBS want rights to future fights should he change mind.

Show/CBS not about to let Floyd decide to return to possibly go 50-0 & take fight across street. This is 1 of reasons for long delay.

Can***39;t blame Show/CBS for protecting their considerable investment in Floyd. I***39;d do the same thing.

They want to keep that retirement angle for this PPV. Everybody involved knows Floyd will fight again. I'll be shocked if he doesn't headline the opening of the new MGM arena.

Doubt it very, very much, my friend.

you never know

Doubt it very, very much, my friend.
