Great career for Floyd.
I doubt he comes back. Nothing else to do...
Just hand em up, invest wisely, spend time with the fam, get his promotion going, etc.

Salido should have won that fight. Bad decision...
Had a small wager on Jack over Groves, glad it went through.

9-3 (one of those rounds could have gone to Floyd.)

Berto didn't do shit. A bit too much holding on Floyds part. But no matter what Floyd won.
I was watching this mostly for the defense, Mayweather had a lot more blocks, and a ton more answers on offense...... Berto had chances, but it's never enough against Mayweather though......

Oh well, never was a fan, but great career for Mayweather, ONE of the greatest ever!!!

I think he'll stay retired for at least one year, but if one of these young guys starts to put together a run and gets some hype behind him, a hundred million dollar check could be there for him to come back, its hard as fuck to ignore that kind of money, one of the only guys to stay retired despite massive paydays was Lennox Lewis...that Vitali rematch was $50 million for him alone at one point, maybe more. I don't know if Floyd will be able to stay away with that kind of cash but who knows, he's made a fortune obviously and even if he does live recklessly he should be set for life.

Oh well, to earn that TBE, he'll have to!! But for now, he's just equal to the true Rocky!!

australian boxing is a joke and has been for a while, its a fact. Just look at the fights that are being made its crazy.

how was I wrong about Hayne? I said he can probably make the team as a special teams player but I don't see him being much more than that. Seems accurate.
Yeah now it's a joke but we will be relevant again one day. You were wrong about Hayne you only have to look at the thread I made and all of you were hating on him. If you spent the time to actually look at where he came from before you judge, you would see the light.

Not only wil he be a special ST player, he will put up good numbers with the chances given to him in the backfield and at the line of scrimmage.

Anyway, enjoy your shitty ppv money gayweather fight, he could use more money on his bed and more cars in his garage.

Gayweather will go down in history as a bitch who was scared to fight pacman in his prime.

I do hope Floyd stays retired, not because I dislike him, more because I hate seeing fighters especially ATG's just look so helpless later in life cause they didn't know when to call it quits. Better to get out too early than to late.

I can't believe Totenkopf's nonsense in this thread cause 2-0-Sixx to hate on Jeff Fenech. It's a sad day.

Watched the TruTV show earlier today, Valdez punished Chris Avalos. And he did it hanging back and countering Avalos' aggressiveness which it made it even more impressive. Wish Jesse Hart had been fighting someone a little better than Pryor Jr. Not sure why he was matched up like that in a TV spot after coming off the Jimenez win.

Floyd Mayweather's worst Showtime pay-per-view haul, in perspective

Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s self-described farewell fight against Andre Berto was the worst-selling of his six Showtime pay-per-view bouts, with two industry sources reporting Wednesday that it drew 550,000 buys.

Mayweather improved to 49-0 with the unanimous decision victory over the former welterweight champion, with one judge awarding Mayweather all 12 rounds.

Floyd Mayweather's last fight was a complete disaster and nobody watched it

Floyd Mayweather Jr. has fought his final bout, easily beating Andre Berto in a snoozefest, and according to the early Pay-Per-View (PPV) estimates, nobody cared.
One source told Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports that there were only 400,000 PPV sales. Another source put the number in the 500,000-550,000 range. Either way, that's awful.

That's the lowest PPV sales total for a Mayweather fight since he faced Carlos Baldomir in 2006, a fight that generated just 325,000 PPV sales.

For comparison, Mayweather's previous fight against Manny Pacquiao drew 4.6 million PPV sales. That fight generated $410-460 million in PPV revenue alone with a $90 (standard definition) and $100 (high-definition) price tag. This fight against Berto was priced at $65 (SD) and $75 (HD) which translates to PPV revenue of just $30-40 million.
