Floyd Mayweather Jr

Retired superstar Floyd Mayweather is annoyed at the way certain people involved in the sport continue to talk about, and call for, his ring return. Every week or so, a story breaks suggesting “Money,” now aged 39 and having last fought over 14 months ago, will return to the squared circle soon. But Mayweather, who has said again and again that he is content in retirement, sure seems to mean what he says.

Just yesterday, Mayweather put out a message on social media, in which he both ridicules those people who continue to talk about him returning for fight number-50, and boasts about his incredible wealth.

Although he is retired (although it’s apparent few truly believe he is) superstar Floyd Mayweather Junior continues to make the news on a regular basis. Now a promoter, the 39-year-old all time great recently closed the door with a slam on a rematch with Manny Pacquiao; a pointless and unneeded return in the opinion of not only Mayweather but all those fans who have not forgotten how one-sided, and dull, the May 2015 fight was.

And it was while talking about how happy he is as a promoter and how content he is with how his career played out (49-0 of course) that “Money” explained just why he became the smart defensive fighter he is best known – for good or for bad- for being. There was a time when Mayweather, when he was known as “Pretty Boy,” delivered plenty of pretty knockout wins/stoppages (see his destruction of Diego Corrales, and of Arturo Gatti).

Conor McGregor has set his terms to box Floyd Mayweather — $100 MILLION!

The two had been going back and forth on TMZ Sports earlier this week — with Floyd calling him an “ant” and Conor daring him to “say that to my face.”

But Tuesday night at 1 OAK in NYC, Conor took over the DJ booth, hijacked the mic and called out the boxer for everyone to see.

Will he or won’t he? Will boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather Junior return to the ring for a 50th fight or not? The 49-0 master recently returned to the gym to spar, once again sparking off suggestions that his ring return is imminent. Mayweather, who turns 40 next February, is said to have looked as sharp as ever in the spar session and the thinking is, he must be back sparring for a reason.

And many people think that reason is, Floyd is getting himself ready to rumble; once more at least. It is of course no coincidence that fellow megastar Manny Pacquiao fights tonight, at least Floyd’s returning to the gym to spar so close to Pac-Man’s ring return is no coincidence in the minds of some people.
