Floyd Mayweather is bigger than the sport. That's the thing. Because you can go to somebody who don't even know what boxing is and say, Floyd Mayweather. They'll go, Oh, I know Floyd Mayweather. I've heard that name.

More quotes by Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Well, you've got certain obstacles that get in your way throughout your career, but you have to be a strong individual.
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 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.
I'm a professional fighter and like most professional fighters I have had difficulties with my hands in the past.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I would lie in bed, and I was nine years old, and say to myself: 'I want to be the richest man in the world.' I've come a long way from there.
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.
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.
Ricky Hatton ain't nothing but a fat man. I'm going to punch him in his beer belly when I see him.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Ive never shown my weakness, I will never show my weakness.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I'm fighting Miguel Cotto on May 5th because Miss Pac Man is ducking me
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
The American fans would love to see me fight anybody.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Love me or hate me...you're gonna watch me.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Anything I've asked of MGM Grand, they've done for me in a heartbeat. They're all about making entertainers and athletes happy.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
There is boxing and then there is me. The rest are just falling in line behind me or are trying to get in line to fight me. And that includes Manny Pacquiao too.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Ain't no boundaries, ain't no limits.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I loved competing and winning and also wanted to continue my career for the fans, knowing they were there for me and enjoyed watching me fight.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Some people are just right for you.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Hopefully, some day I help some of this up-and-coming talent and promote them. Boxing is growing and is here to stay.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
You know, everybody has a slogan, and once you beat people over the head with it so much, then that's what you'll eventually be called once you retire from the sport or whatever.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I don't adjust my training for any of my opponents. I don't watch films on my opponents.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
