Yeah this is what I was thinking it's a warm up fight before he enters ufc. I think he wants to ultimately fight Conor McGregor again and wants to beat him in ufc to try and prove a point that he can win at boxing and ufc to become the ultimate fighter.
There is no one at welter Floyd wouldn't beat, easily. He clearly doesn't care about anything other than the biggest payday with the least amount of risk. Horrible for boxing... good for his health/bank account I guess..
Even at 41? I think Spence would be too much for him...shit, stylistically Porter might be a problem at Floyd's current age....in his prime sure but it would be extremely impressive if he ran through the top welters now
I don't like older fighters going up in weight.. that's why I said Welter. I think Canelo was his easiest fight (not including the Conor fraud) over the last few years, but I think it would be really dangerous for Floyd to fight at 160 at this point. I think he "could" win, but I don't think he would do it at this point. Floyd is running an elaborate scam right now. He doesn't want to fight anymore but he doesn't want to leave any easy money on the table.
He'd just outbox them. Floyd is better defensively now that he was several years ago (i think that's what's often overlooked). I think those guys would have a better chance with Floyd several years ago than now because he absolutely takes ZERO risks now...none. It just ends up being a sparring contest and you're not going to outpoint floyd. I don't think he's slowed down enough for any of these guys to outbox him or knock him out yet. All of these guys look great until they get in the ring with Floyd and look like amateur fighters. It's easy to look good when you're fighting guys who stand in front of you and trade punches.

Big question is how are Floyd's legs at 41, B Hop was able to beat champs til he was like 46 you think Floyd could do the same?
I don't think Floyd could fight until he's 46 because he clearly doesn't want to fight anymore...he just can't walk away from the easy money because he loves money so much. Fighting is as much mental as physical.
Physically, in his previous fights, his legs looked great, conditioning looked great, and he stays in fight shape so not like training breaks him down because he pretty much walks around at his fight weight. Floyd was probably the most conditioned fighter of this generation..possibly all-time...when have you ever seen Floyd gassed in a fight? never. So I don't even think his legs would be an issue. And I don't think anyone at Welter is good enough to consistently hit him and not take more back with counters...even Errol as someone mentioned earlier.
Floyd is retired. He's doing nothing more than an exhibition tour that people are overpaying for because he convinces whites that somehow his non-black opponent might be able to beat him. He's been doing that for a while but now it's just bananas that people are paying for this shit and he's not even boxing boxers. It's brilliant and makes him a lot of money so I can't really knock him for it.
Nope. I think Floyd is done "boxing". He's going to ride this exhibition thing out.

Man I promise you he and COINTELPRO are two of my favorite posters bro.
Hes slowly reaching Jesse Owens racing horses level of buffoonery... Except Owens was left with no choice in the matter.
that makes absolutely no sense to me...in your mind it’s probably “poetic” tho...to each his own
I have no idea. I didn't think there would be another one after the Conor fight, but here we are.
if he goes in a ufc ring, hes walking out in a wheel chair
We will see he could possibly be a good ufc fighter it remains to be seen.
I think Mayweather would have a lot of trouble with Spence. He’s big and strong. I think he would beat guys like Crawford and Mikey Garcia that are smaller.
But I agree, he’s done proving he’s a boxing pound-for-pounder. Let the man go out and get money. I doubt I’ll pay, but I’ll definitely watch a bootleg stream the next day.
I bet Mayweather already cashed the check.From what I’ve heard on how Japanes do business in combat sports, I hope he’s getting paid in advance...
I understand you laughter and your statement. It is just like plantation days. We do not stand a chance. It is one thing to expose the truth. But it is another thing to live after you do it. Jesus Christ and Congressman Ryan were two examples of that. So my proving the truth is a joke right now.
I'll admit, it takes talent to write this shit
I withdraw my support from Floyd, I thought he was going to have a clean retirement. He's just chasing pay days now. Prediction, he's eventually lose in boxing when he comes back to the sport if he fights a young & worthy contender.
Always remember when Jesse Owens needed money, he raced a horse. We don't want to remember that.

He says he's not doing it:
Floyd so full of shit
