"You have to know when to hang it up. I'm knocking at the door; I'm close to 40 years old. I've been in this sport 19 years, been a world champion 18 years, broke all the records. There's nothing else to prove in the sport of boxing. My 49-0 is part of boxing. Records are made to be broken. Hopefully, some day we can find the next Floyd Mayweather." 

I'm leaving the sport with all my faculties; I'm still sharp and smart. I've accomplished everything in this sport, there's nothing left to accomplish. Money doesn't make me. I make money." 

Now it's time to spend time with my family and children, make sure they get the proper education. I also want to help the fighters under the Mayweather banner."
