Floyd announces his unretirement the same day Conor signs with zuffa .....Conor. Ryan. Rolly. These are winnable fights for 48 year old Floyd.

hes 49 years old

He might as well be 75 these old guys fighting not moving the needle for me.


The rumor was another Pacquiao fight.

Is Floyd still a 147 pound fighter at this point? His fight against McGregor in 2017 was at 154.....I'm questioning if he can even still make 147 these days.

If we being honest, he’s a little too small for 154 too.

The celeb shyt, the McGregor shyt, they’re chumps, but in the big leagues, against the real 154 top tier? It’s Floyd I know, but still, he’s a little guy.

I talked to my brother about this Floyd situation. He lives in Vegas, and is in circles and tends to know things. I asked him to break this down from his perspective and he just said “Floyd is just dumb, that’s your breakdown,”

He also said he thinks Benn is a huge possibility although I think Floyd should target an older fighter.

Ppl are actually spinning Floyd coming back to fight like why wouldn't he get the bag

at Hearn talking loyalty. This is boxing ain't no fukkin loyalty except to the fukkin check. I get your trainer but your promoter fukk nah. And Conor Benn is a fukkin BUM. He don't owe Hearn shyt

He can't do anything either cause Turki signed off on it.

I hate Dana but fukk all them for not seeing this coming a decade ago

And Bob. And Oscar. And Frank. And Haymon.

yeah there’s nothing really to say. Dudes life revolves around spending money. It isn’t sustainable.

I agree, should have locked him into a long term contract but hindsight is 20/20

If Im eggs benedict I'm taking that deal 100 times out of 100. He is very liable to get exposed once he goes against basically anyone in the top 10 of whatever division he chooses and it wouldn't be for 8 figures. I'm very curious who they even pair him up with because I can never call a pro boxer "trash" but compared to his contemporaries he is food. They need to get him in there with another flawed ass fighter who is going to stand and bang. If its someone like haney or shakur thats about the worst investment ever.

I actually think this is a very amusing timeline considering how fukking garbage the UFC is right now, if those dudes weren't all such dikksucking meatheads they might actually realize they are getting hoed and have all the leverage over Dana.

I want to say paying regional talent tier nikkas like Benn 10 mill isn't sustainable but no one knows how far Turkey is willing to go with that zuffa shyt. either way gonna force promoters to dot their Is with their fighters going forward or get poached.

They're overpaying IMHO to poach talent and put their competitors out of business and then it will go back to normal

IDK seems like a far fetched plan. this type of takeover would take decades if everything went perfectly.

I mean anything can happen though, will be interesting to see. end of the day I just want to see the best fight the best and if that continues whatever. Its up to those boxers to get what they feel they are worth.
