I'll believe it when I see it. I don't think he's that broke just yet.

Not broke but high overheads,

He probably makes $5m/month from fashion, sponsership, investments etc but he probably spends $5m/month on garbage.

He beat pac already and beat Canelo too.
If Canelo wants it they can fight at WW.

147? Jesus...the level of ******ity here always manages to surprise me.

I love Manny but lets be real he fought more guys with asterisks more than Floyd. Atleast he never fought anyone coming off a loss

I believe he fought Judah coming off a loss to Baldomir

*Floyd & Dana White do lines in the bathroom*

"Dude. I have THE most awesome idea!"

*24hrs later*

"Haha, we trolled you! We are clever and witty, not lazy rich *******s!"

Lifestyles of the rich and the famous.

floyd is a teetotaler

So out of 50 fights you are talking about McGregor and the exhibition in Japan

The other 48 fights just passed you by?

Surely the McGregor and Exhibition bout don't actually count as fights?

He did take some risky fights early in his career. But we all saw what he did with Canelo and Pacquaio etc. Pretty much every fight in the 2nd half of his career was cherry picked so it wasn't really a risk. He even ran from Khan after Khan won his Twitter pole which is ultra embarrassing.

Mayweather was a great fighter but there's a reason people rank people like Ali and Ray Robinson so high - because they fought everyone and they fought the best at their best.

100 % accurate.
Fighting the best, and THEIR BEST. Not dodging hugging and ducking...

Dude, if you didn’t get the tongue-in-cheek sarcasm then I don’t what to tell ya.

Every idiot that is clamoring for a Canelo rematch can’t answer this simple question - what weight should Floyd-Canelo be at? Canelo just fought at 175 and has struggled at every weight class he’s been at so I am assuming those idiots will want Floyd to go to 160 or higher.

So, I am asking you the genius, Floyd is a WW - what weight class should that fight take place at if it happens?

FYI, their fight at 152 was Canelo’s idea. He called out Floyd after he beat Kermit Cintron and offered to meet Floyd half way (look it up genius).

While that is true, context matters.
Floyd was not the PPV Star he is today. The only leverage he had was belts.

Zab held two belts when he fought Baldomir. Baldomir couldn’t pay the sanction fees of one if the belts so only one belt was on the line which Floyd needed to have leverage against his goal, Oscar.

Two, Floyd was moving up to 147.

Brandon Rios was coming off a loss st 130 when he moved up two weight classes to fight PAC.

Lastly, can you honestly compare Rios to Judah?

So Khan gets KO’d every time he steps up against elite fighters and somehow Floyd ducked him?

I know guys on crack that make more sense
