He\u2019s a fan favorite, he\u2019s making money, he loves shiny things \u2014 I\u2019m talking about gold and jewelry and stuff like that, and he wants to buy a lot more of it \u2014 and he\u2019s in the prime of his life. If he was quitting, walking away, he would at least jazz it up a little touch, as opposed to using a font last seen on an Atari f****** game system. What is that font?! There\u2019s no way. He\u2019s a very stylish guy, he\u2019s not announcing his retirement in a font from a ZX Spectrum.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019s retiring at all. I don\u2019t know what he\u2019s playing at. Fighters do this. Conor McGregor famously always does that. He loves to tease his retirement. Diaz did it a couple of times.
