Andre Ward has said he thinks Floyd Mayweather could be tempted out of retirement again if hes offered US$1 billion to get back in the ring.

This is too much for us fans, Floyd is pressuring us to pay him just for him to get back fighting again, this clearly says about his name Money, the greediness of money. Well, hopefully we won't be able to see this happens because with this big money at stake and it will still result to a boring fight, it would result in painting negative image to the boxing world.

I just think that US$1 billion guaranteed for him is just impossible, he should just enjoy his retirement than asking this amount when he doesn't deserve this.

Is what it is but if you put yourself in his shoe, you'll understand that for him to cancel some of his schedule and spend limited time with his family while he spend much time preparing himself for the fight the money involve have to worth it.
You call it greed but he sees it as business statistics.

Actually this depends on the promoter, asking $1 billion could be too high but if the promoter of the fight sees it possible, he might get this money.
It could probably be his biggest paycheck in boxing and probably the biggest in boxing history, so the likelihood of this happening is very less.

He is not a Legend anyway, Manny is more deserving to ask for this amount if only he has a great marketing people behind him. who knows how to hype a fight just like Mayweather is doing. Manny being able to fight a lower class boxer like Lucas Matthysse and Horn, that's too humble on going down but his price also did go down doing it.
