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.
I've had boxing gloves on since before I could walk and been in gyms all of my life.
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.
Showing is better than telling.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
I've been in the sport of boxing for a long time, but I haven't been able to bring my 'A-game' totally out. I've beaten fighters with my 'C-Game' and with my 'D-Game,' but I haven't been able to beat anybody with my 'A-Game.'
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.
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.
I'm the best at talking trash I'm also the best at going out there and backing it up.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
What's so crazy is when you give interviews to reporters that don't really care too much for you, basically what they're going to do is write what they want to write and discredit you. They're going to write and say what they want to say, no matter what you tell them.
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.
I'm fighting Miguel Cotto on May 5th because Miss Pac Man is ducking me
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.
Your body is your temple. You do your body good, your body will do you good.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
It's the hurt business, it's boxing. We're there to get it in.
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.
I don't have to fight if I don't want to.
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.
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 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.
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.
If I'm scared and I'm a coward, why do you guys want to see me fight?
