To no-one’s big surprise, Floyd Mayweather was named The Fighter Of the Decade by The Boxing Writers Association of America.

Comebacks – 2020 could see a load of them in the boxing ring.
There are already a few ring comebacks set for 2020, while there are others that range from possible, to likely, to highly likely.

It seems we haven’t seen the back of Floyd Mayweather Junior just yet. Just days ago, in speaking with Reuters, the 42 year old superstar said he was “done,” that despite all the offers he continually gets to fight again he had decided that “boxing is a very, very brutal sport,” and that “you have to know when to hang it up.”
Floyd Mayweather did it all during his boxing career. Didn’t he? He sure won a big handful of world titles, he sure defeated every single man he ever stepped into the squared circle with, and of course we all know “Money” earned himself an absolute ton of the stuff through his chosen sport.

He didn’t take on the nickname “Money” for nothing. Floyd Mayweather is still pulling in huge sums of money and he is doing it without risking a thing in the ring.
We pretty much know 40 year old Manny Pacquiao will fight again. The living legend looked good, arguably close to his best In years, when he picked up a wide decision over Adrien Broner in January and then picked up a closer points win over Keith Thurman last month to win yet another world title.
Fashionably late or annoyingly late? Superstar Floyd Mayweather was supposed to be in the house at the huge stadium in Tokyo, Japan, by 11am UK time, yet he is said to be “running late.”
