Floyd Mayweather Jr. is standing firm on his claim that he will retire after his Sept. 12 match with Andre Berto in Las Vegas, although a familiar name joins the group of people who still think otherwise — Floyd Mayweather Sr.
Floyd Jr.'s decision to select Berto draws puzzling conclusions to this day, apparently because Berto is not among the top names in the boxing circle these days and will undoubtedly be overpowered by the undefeated American boxer.
Try as he might to build up on Berto, the thing is that many are not biting. The conclusion thus ends up with Mayweather Jr. simply going through the motions of reaching 49–0 and equaling the feat of another boxing great, Rocky Marciano.
What happens beyond that is anyone's guess despite the claims of the Mayweather camp (except one) that Floyd Jr. will definitely call it quits once the final bell rings on Sept. 12.
Floyd Sr. has, of course, not always been seeing eye-to-eye with his son and apparently, this is the case as far as what the future holds for Floyd Jr.
Floyd Jr. has proven his recipe to success without the guidance of his father through the years, and the elder Mayweather is left speechless with what his son has accomplished.
But as far as hanging it up after Sept. 12 is concerned, he believes that the door will not be completely shut.
As speculated before here on Christian Today, a lucrative fight could sway the flamboyant one to think otherwise. For Floyd Sr., a rematch with past foes could happen.
That list includes Miguel Cotto, Canelo Alvarez, and Manny Pacquiao. A potential fight with any of those names is bound to rack in millions more and Floyd Sr. believes it could happen if the price is right.
For the ones he has yet to face, Floyd Sr. believes it could be possible as well provided they have a following that is big enough to translate into a lucrative fight night. On whether his father's insights are on target or not can only be affirmed by Floyd Jr. probably not right after Sept. 12 but in 2016.
