Regardless of if he needs the money why wouldn’t he do this shyt?

Look at the last ten highest grossing “boxing fights” that were streaming.

Next tell me how many where exhibitions or involved someone who hadn’t been predominantly known for boxing.

Now consider what TYSON/MAYWEATHER does against those numbers…we all know it will demolish anything before it.

So then he fight Pacquio…shyt if I’m him I LOSE REGARDLESS because the money for Manny/Paquio 3 after all of that WOULD BE CRAZY.

There's no regardless IF he needs the money fam, HE NEEDS THE MONEY.

There's NO reason why at 50-0,48 and will be 49 years old shortly and earning 1.2 BILLION DOLLARS in boxing to this point,he's lining up to do multiple fights,something's wrong,and if all goes well he'll play it off like he was good the entire time,but with all the recent news we know thats NOT the case.

This pretty much says it all as far as his finances I believe. No way he's risking that 0 if he didn't need some cash flow. Even if he fights Manny again and beats him where does he go from there? Any other good boxer at this point probably will beat him and i know he will be selective in who he fights. No way he should have to fight again though with all the bread he made in his prime.

Floyd vs. Manny 2
Floyd vs. Canelo 2
Floyd vs. Bud (unlikely)
Floyd vs. Ryan Garcia (yes believe it or not)

These are the only fights that can rank in the cash he's looking for and sell tickets.


And i'm guessing that lawsuit with Showtime isn't looking too good by now.
None of them fights happening besides Manny pacquiao. Ryan Garcia will be irrelevant after he loses to Barrios.

Tyson
Pacquiao
Roy jones
Jake/ Logan Paul
McGregor

Anything else I cant see anyone paying Floyd the bag he's looking for. Dudes 50. No one cares like that anymore

I doubt he’s broke. Could he had taken some losses? Yes. Broke? No. He’s probably down to 100-200 million and that is a huge issue for someone like him.

Also, I think he sold himself to the owners of that weird rich and famous world, and he now has to give them what they ask. He could’ve kept fighting exhibitions for 10-15 million a pop against no names and caked up. So there’s a bigger reason for his comeback against legit boxers. If it was for money, he could’ve fought Tyson and Jake Paul and scooped up 50-100 million each.


Another reason I think is the 50-0 record. That 50th win was the cheap way out and I think it plays on his conscious. He won’t fight a major contender but he’ll fight a legit fighter for that 50th win.

Floyd is also addicted to the spotlight and abnormal amounts of money, the two things that he ONLY care about. He has a superficial sickness brehs.

I think there’s a whole slew of reasons, and saying he’s broke is too easy. Dudes been saying he was broke every time he fought, literally.

This is a dude who should have touched over a billion in career earnings

He made 600 mil between the Mcgregor and Pacquiao fights alone

If he still needs the money….he’ll always need the money. Because it’d be clear that he can’t manage money for shyt

Id be sad to see him come back and do these side show quests. Because ain’t no way in hell he’d ever get in the ring with a nikka like Boots.

He’ll line something up with Jake Paul and have his career ended unceremoniously once he sets up that Bud fight.

Bob Arum 100 years old still pulling Floyd's strings and will still screw him over.
