More quotes by Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Boxing won’t retire me, I will retire from boxing.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
All 48 of my fights have been hard. None have been easy. All played a major key. It's the 'Mayweather Era.' I feel that every fighter is an artist and they all take pictures their own way. I'm just one of the very best artists.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I am the best. There is nobody better than me.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I'm running my mouth a lot and I'm looking for a guy to shut me up. If you don't shut me up, I'm going to keep running my mouth.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
No athlete works harder than Floyd Mayweather.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Everything people say I couldn't do I've done.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I'm fighting Miguel Cotto on May 5th because Miss Pac Man is ducking me

There's ups and downs with boxing, layoffs are part of the sport and they can either help or hurt a guy.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.

Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I think I already proved that I wasn't just fighting for the money, because I fought as an amateur. I fought 90 fights for free.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I'm a professional fighter and like most professional fighters I have had difficulties with my hands in the past.
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.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
When I was about 8 or 9, I lived in New Jersey with my mother and we were seven deep in one bedroom and sometimes we didn't have electricity.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
It's the hurt business, it's boxing. We're there to get it in.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Don't ever know who you may meet, or just because a person may not be dressed up all fancy, don't mean they're not an important person. You just don't ever know who you're gonna meet in life. So that's why I look at everybody as equal. Can't just judge. I treat everybody with respect. Every man.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Showing is better than telling.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I come from a very rough background, and I'm saying that if you work hard and dedicate yourself that you can make it, too.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
You have to realize that most of these guys get in there and fight on heart. I fight with smarts. There is no fighter that is smarter than me. Most of these fighters are ABC, 1-2-3. I am like 4-5-6 levels above them that's why I'm able to beat them.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
