I've been saying I think Floyd is done since Berto & I still believe it as much you can ever believe a boxer saying he won't fight again.
For as exceptional a fighter Floyd was I think he is a realistic guy with the fighting business & who saw what too many fights did to many great fighters including his own uncle & won't make that mistake himself.
Yea it's almost been a year since he fought and he's about to turn 40Comment

Showtime is not going to pay Floyd 100 million to fight a non boxer, be real. If Floyd got 100 million to face a guy with a 0-0 record then he'd probably be the greatest negotiator ever. Let's be realistic.
I saw an interview with Lennox Lewis where he said he would come back right now if he got a guaranteed 100 million. Who wouldn't get in there for that kind of money? But Lennox has been retired for 13 years and we know he isn't coming back. Floyd is basically saying "I'm not coming back unless you pay me an insane amount of money to fight a guy who doesn't even box."
The TBE of negotiating.......lolComment

I like Floyd as a promoter. I don't know if it's anger or boredom that drives him. Could be he's mad at the stick he's taken and maybe it's just a hobby, but he's not in it for the money. He's not trying to get rich lets say. Nobody on TMT has been pampered, Floyd is a strict showman. It's like he's harder on his team than he was on himself.Comment

He's going to come back. He's going to sign some people up to his roster with the carrot being TBE50 a ppv that's going to be his attempt at 50, featuring an undercard of TMT fighters so he wins across the entire board. The narrative will be with x amount of time out of the ring can he still prove he's the best ever. Mark my words on that, late next year or early 2018 if he doesn't sign anyone of note and has to build them up with a few fights.Comment
