Floyd Mayweather Jr. Will Return in 2009, Says Floyd Sr.

Trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. is confident that his son, Floyd Mayweather Jr., will return to boxing in 2009. He feels that one too many people are chasing for a fight against his son. The best advice he can give them is to relax, sit back and wait. He sees Floyd Jr. coming back without a needed push from a third-party.

"That, I believe he will do. At the end of the day, I believe he'll be back next year. All that stuff with my son? Everybody should just sit back and relax. No one has got to do nothing. Everything is going to manifest itself," Mayweather Sr. told The Grand Rapids Press .

Leonard Ellerbe, the manager/advisor for Floyd Jr., was impressed with the work that Mayweather Sr. has done with Ricky Hatton. He told the paper that Floyd Jr. watched the Hatton's fight with Paulie Malignaggi and was equally impressed. Floyd Jr. is the only man to beat Hatton, knocking the Manchester fighter out last December.

"Big Floyd has a way of motivating you," Ellerbe said. "He has a way of communicating and I saw immediately what he was doing. I was impressed. Hatton is more of a thinking fighter now. Floyd said the same thing the next day. He said he watched it on TV and Hatton was a totally different fighter under his father."

The only reason he isnt boxing now is because he is going to get a shitload of money when he comes back. Money is on he will fight Hatton.

Everyone sang that song the first time around and did Hatton no good.
Hatton is a grappler/brawler. Hatton doesn't have the skill level Mayweather has.

Yeah i agree, while Hatton/Mayweather was a great fight the Pacquaio fight is 10x more interesting to me and would be the biggest payday either of them have ever had, its about the only BIG time fight boxing has left that isnt a rematch.

hatton to beat the pac man?

berryv 05-01-2009 10:56 PM

Is everyone forgetting that Hatton as to face Pacman , I think Hatton is going to get punished in this fight , then naturally the only fiht for Mayweather would be Pacman.

Floyd suedo retired so he wouldn't have to fight certain fights.
He is more in love with his record than anything.

It turns out he has planned to come back before
Marquez and Diaz fought. Marquez said he would be moving up in weight to fight Mayweather next. Unfortunately the fight is above 142. Which give advantage to Mayweather. Plus FM Jr is going to run backward like normal.

I doubt the Pac fight will happen.
Floyd will be unrealistic. Wanting to stack everything in his favor. Just like Roach called it.

ashleabyrne 05-09-2009 08:57 PM

cant wait for the floyd comebk hes picked a hard come back fight but knowin floyed he will win only by points there is no way hel ko marquez
