Why Fighters Retire After They Face Floyd

[Code Red]

wait which fighter retired after fighting floyd? Maidana?

When I say retire I dont mean hang up the gloves but hang up their motivation to make history in the sport. Alvarez because of his age can still make history but he seems to be running from it don't he? Every other fighter fought petty matches after Floyd that were almost meaningless. And yeah Pac - Bradley 3 was meaningless

They have ceased to make history or be a factor in the sport...after Floyd they fall way back in line and never recover.

But thanks for reminding me Berto and Ortiz did have a rematch completely forgot about that

Well, I have to say, I didn't ever see Guerrero, Berto or Ortiz making any history in the sport no matter who they fought.

True enough, Pac retired and I'm glad. What more could he have done? Maidana got out and that did surprise me. He was only 31 and I figured he'd hang around for some more paydays. Plus, him against Porter or Thurman could be interesting. Honestly I think he got so fat and happy down there that the idea of boxing or stepping into a gym probably does nothing for him anymore. It's sad. I think "El Chino" could have given us more. Then again, if he's healthy and happy in Argentina, that's fine, too. He gave us some memories. His win over Broner was epic.

yeah pac lost his motivation and pac-bradley 3 was meaningless

Rios made more money from one Pac fight than Maidana 1 and 2. Bradley made more than $10 mil, Marquez made $10 mil in the Pac 4 alone, etc., etc.

You make it sound like your hero is the real cash cow as an opponent. He's too greedy to share more. Pac's opponents make far more. It's not even close.

lol Which fighters have retired after fighting Floyd? Maidana is literally the only one that comes to mind, and even he's thinking about coming back.

What a dumb fail thread lol. Beside Maidana? ?? They lose the motivation to make history??? Pac dont need to make history, hes already wether i like it or not. Guerrero? He fought for belts... Ortiz tried... Berto just kod Ortiz... Canelo is the cashcow...

Whats wrong with u? We can praise Floyd with strong arguments, not that dumb sh#t u just wrote. Come on man lol

Pac - Bradley was as meaningless as the Berto fight. Pac didnt need Floyd to.make history and Floyd didnt need Pac to make it too. Their history was allready writtenyears before they fought.

Just admit u failed with this one, its alll good

What do fighters accomplish after they lose to Floyd? Nothing cause they cash out

What do fighters accomplish after they lose to Floyd? Nothing cause they cash out

What did Berto accomplish before the Floyd fight? What did Ortiz do before? What did Guerrero do before? As for Pac, what else can he accomplish, hes done it all. Canelo is still young and still fighting.

Other than Maidana, ur points make 0 sense.
