I looked but I still haven’t found a single soul not directly affiliated with Floyd Mayweather Jr. who believed him when he said he was retiring following his anti-climactic adios fight against Andre Berto last year.

This is because boxers are only fully retired when they are ensconced in a coffin and, also, because we semi-cynics presumed the possibility that the retirement angle was just that, an angle, and Floyd merely planned a hiatus, not a permanent vacation.

All this doubt and speculation seems more grounded in reality, hearing the words Mayweather, 38, dispensed to videographer Elie Seckbach on Saturday night in LA: “The other day, I tried to tell myself, ‘You want to fight again’…I still don’t have the urge…I tried to force myself to tell myself that I wanted to fight again…As of right now, absolutely not…What’s important is my children.”

As of right now…

You caught that?

Yeah…It is not a matter of IF but WHEN. But you already knew that…
