Floyd Mayweather, Jr.I fight myself. I don't fight to break Ali's record or Sugar Ray Robinson's record. I fight to please myself. I know in my heart where I'm rated. I didn't fight in Ali's era. This is my era.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.I don't know who my three next opponents will be. A lot of people ask me that. You want to fight me? Earn it.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.I want to be able to separate the average from the good and from the great. I want to separate the ordinary from the extraordinary.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.Nobody knows what the future holds, but right now, I'm cool and comfortable and having no second thoughts at all about retirement. I had a good career, I won every world title, but boxing is wear and tear on the body. It's time to hang 'em up. I'm looking forward to working with some up-and-coming kids, going on walks, and taking vacations.
