I haven't talked about this subject in a minute, but why would Floyd need to retire to do that?
He was not even lined up to fight those guys, if he fought on he would have fought Oscar which would have paid Floyd more than fighting both guys in 2007. Why would a guy retire when he isn't going to fight those guys anyways~ Floyd was already getting a lot of junk at the time, so it is not like he was some beloved figure trying to save face.
He retired because he didn't like the deal Oscar offered him, so he went away hoping he could get a better offer later or for something else to come up, Oscar got his ass beat so Floyd had to go on in a different direction. No to mention after Oscar getting whooped, GBP would have been much more accommodating in backing up the Brinks truck to Floyd's house because they needed his star.
IF you need to ask this question still, you will never know~
