mayweather confirms that de la hoya will be its last fight

[K-DOGG]

On a serious note, if he really wants to be considered an all-time p4p great, retiring after the DLH fight is not a good move. He still has much work to do.

Mayweather is saying that it's his last fight so he can have the 'big' comeback fight.No way is it his last fight.This is all marketing.

exactly I cant wait till he gets beat by ODH and retires to come back and lose again.

[rocco1252]

yeah considering he hasnt fought 1 worthy opponent the loser

Retiring is an excuse. That way he doesnt have to fight certain people he dont want to! If Hatton retired i would give him some lip as well. But he aint retirring. He wants the fight sometime soon. PBF talking of retiring stops talks of a possibl match impossible.
Hatton turning down a fight before was because he hadnt acheived everything he hoped to up to that point. Now there records are more on an even level.
Now they should both be ready. If PBF wants to retire it is an excuse not to discuss a possible match. Simple!!!

What has Hatton accomplished since beating Tsyzu? He picked up another strap from one of the worst jr. welter champions ever, Maussa. You think Maussa is any good? He just got destroyed by a journeyman coming off a long layoff...

He moves up and barely gets the nod against Collazo. A lot of people still think Collazo did enough to win that fight.

What's next? He's fighting a prospect with a paper title named Urango. Not only is Urango a paper champion, he flat out robbed Rabah who was outboxing him easily over 12 rounds. That fight wasn't even close. If Rabah had the title, Hatton wouldn't even be trying to fight him because he fears slick boxers that use their legs (ie Junior Witter)...

Hatton is a ****ing joke. I'm sure Maussa, Collazo, and Urango would get him ready for Floyd Mayweather, Jr...

Thank God this is PBF's last fight - even though I doubt it is. PBF is one of the worst, boring, arrogant, disrespectful boxing personality out there. I for one am glad he will (hopefully) be gone. But lord knows he probably be back to secure his fake legacy that he is always whinning about. He was booed during the Baldomir fight, his PPV buys keep getting lower, nobody is intrested in him no more. Not even the media, (after the Baldy fight he was giving out free watches to the media who would swarm the interview podium, how ridiculous). The guy talks **** on everybody including past fighters who are levels above him in greatness and legacy, then cries how nobody likes or respects him, the guy claims he is best fighter ever to step into the ring, then fights the most cautious boring fights, that ppl walk out from and he wonders why?

The most cheers Mayweather will get in his career is when he finally does retire. (insert my standing O here)

Yeah of course......

Go watch your Street Fighter Gatti, Butterbean, Rocky 1 2 3 4 5 6, Ufc, and just stop watch Pbf, this is boxing man.

You know boxing, hit your opponent without being hit.

i dono i dont think hell retire after DLH, win or lose. Win will boost his confidence and want more fights, and lose will just ask for that rematch.

yeah, i think the retirement talk is BS.... and if he does retire, he'll come back... who hasn't outside of lewis and hagler...

Right. Anyone who believes this, I've got some ocean-front property in Arizona for sale. Just PM me your credit card # and we'll get 'r dun.

I would send you that, but I'm a bit tapped out since I bought much of the state of Wyoming from another poster. Now if you don't mind, I'm going to go back to listening to Jay-Z's "The Black Album", another farewell effort... (smilie)
