More quotes by Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Fame is cool but I believe in success.

The ultimate goal is to always break records.
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 God wants me to lose, then that's when I'll lose. But until then, I'm going to be at the top of my game and keep working hard anddedicating myself to the sport of boxing and to being the best entertainer that I can be.
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.
My spirituality is more private. I've got my own personal relationship with god. I know that there's a god because I was able to survive everything that I've been through - all of the tough times - and I'm still at the top of my game. With all the rumors and all the hate, I'm still strong, still happy, still blessed.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Some pay to see me win, some pay to see me lose, but they all pay.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Ricky Hatton ain't nothing but a fat man. I'm going to punch him in his beer belly when I see him.

It's the hurt business, it's boxing. We're there to get it in.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Boxing has always been work to me, a job. If I could say anything to a youngster taking up boxing it would be to be smart and not take a lot of punches. It's called the sweet science for a reason. Hit and not be hit, make a lot of money without taking a lot of punishment. That's what it's about.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I like fighters who come to fight.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Canelo's a different breed. A lot of people think because of the way I made Canelo look, they're going to be able to do the same thing, but that's not true. He's a strong fighter.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
If anyone has followed my career, they know that there's been a lot of obstacles and a lot of ups and down through my career. But day in and day out, and in the square circle, I went out there and always did my best.
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.
Ain't no boundaries, ain't no limits.
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.
I'm the best at talking trash I'm also the best at going out there and backing it up.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
