I doubt he will come out of retirement but he has done that before.
He fought Ricky Hatton for the number 1 pound for pound boxer which Floyd won and reached the top spot in boxing. After few years, seeing Pacquaio destroying elite boxers, people regarded Pacquaio as the best boxer of the generation. Then Floyd came out of retirement to prove he is the best.
The question is if he does come back who does he fight next? Which fight will make him more money?
Options:
1. Pacquaio II: I think last time around they split the purse 60:40 in favour of Floyd. Floyd might get 70:30 in the second fight? The first fight did 4.2M buys but I doubt the second fight will anywhere near it. Maybe just above 2M buys. I bought the PPV for the first time to see the first fight. I won't be buying the second time around.
2. Canelo II: Canelo was lot younger and in experienced but he has grown his experience but Floyd still wins this fight. PPV did 2.2M buys last time.
3. GGG: This fight is the one that brings everyone's attention. How will Floyd cope with GGG power and aggressive attack? When asked about this fight, Floyd Snr told the reporter that there is no way they are going to put Floyd against a giant. Floyd is too fast for GGG but you never know.
4. Conor McG: This fight will be the easiest fight for Floyd. Conor hardly uses his jab and depends too much on his left hand. Floyd is the best in terms of movement and Floyd will see Conor's left hand in slow motion and easily get missed. Floyd will win convincingly. This fight will be the most interesting one as 2 sports will be coming together for one night and it draws MMA fans/fighters and boxing fans/boxers all around the world to watch it. I'm not too sure if it will break 4.2 M buys but if it doesn't then without a doubt it will be the 2nd most buys in the history.
