Despite constant whispers that Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s retirement isn't permanent, the 38-year-old boxing legend reiterated his commitment to staying out of the ring Friday.  

In an interview with Joe Moore of talkSPORT, the aptly nicknamed "Money" Mayweather pointed toward his thriving financial situation as one of the biggest reasons for his decision to remain retired: "I will make seven figures a month for the rest of my life. I've made some very smart investments and I'm living very comfortably, my children are going to school and will be going to college soon, and that's what is most important to me right now. I'm just blessed way beyond belief."

With a career record of 49-0, Mayweather could break Rocky Marciano's mark of perfection by winning one more bout to move to 50-0.

Even so, Mayweather insisted he won't come out of retirement for "anyone."

Instead, the Grand Rapids, Michigan, native is content to work behind the scenes and help up-and-coming boxers become stars as part of Mayweather Promotions:

As of right now I'm not focussed on me, I'm focussed on the young fighters under the Mayweather Promotions banner, and trying to help those young fighters to be pay-per-view stars.

I'm not thinking about who I could fight or who I could come out of retirement for, I just want to get back into the sport in a different way.

I've been fighting my whole life and as a professional I competed at the highest level for 20 years, so it's time for me to let the young guys take over.

Mayweather's last fight was a decisive, unanimous-decision victory over Andre Berto, which came after a similarly convincing win against Manny Pacquiao.

Despite essentially accomplishing everything in the sport of boxing and beating the man who was considered to be his greatest competition, he continues to face naysayers since the Pacquiao fight was viewed as unexciting, and Pac-Man was dealing with a shoulder injury.

Mayweather has seemingly been successful at blocking out the noise to this point, and with no major challengers or big-money fights truly presenting themselves, there is reason to believe this retirement will stick.
