Pac is retiring...

People seem to forget or doesn't seem to know that Pac's next fight is surely his last... It's pretty prominent in Philippine media how Pac declares that his mom doesn't want him to fight anymore. and just got the blessing for one last fight. And he's a congressman for chrissakes.. i'm pretty confident that Pac will retire after November fight.. It's a sad week for boxing... Yeah right, the money that he makes from fights also helps fund some his projects for changing his province. Plus with everyone getting a piece of his purse I predict he fights 3 more times.

two years from now they will meet. when floyd's already enjoyed his family time or ran out of money again and the IRS is on his tail, whichever comes first and pacman is winding up his political carreer and half of his campaign promises if not all had been made. big possiblity... it is even possible that they will fight in next 5 years time if not in 2. but the fight will be more likely an exhibition... :)

I agree, he had said time and again that he will do just one more fight, as destiny puts it, for an 8th world division title, then retire. And he doesn`t have to inform Floyd about this, nor do Floyd believe Pacman will do this. Tsk, tsk...

Honestly Pac isn't retiring from boxing but I still don't see the fight happening next year either. Pac vs Margarito will do 800k to 1 million buys and Floyd will try to push for 60-40 next year. I really hope this is the last time Team Pac waste any time with this dude.

I think if PBF wants Pac, he hopes the Pac he faces wont be as good as the one who beat Clottey and Cotto. He hopes Pac is sidetracked by so many other interests like politics and stuff that he gets a poorer version of Pac. Too bad when Mommy Dionisia wishes something, it is law in the Pacquiao clan. We actually respect and have high regards for our elders! And also Manny is also a law maker now at the same time while taking college classes from the premier university in the Philippines to help him better understand the ins and outs of his new venture. This Pacquiao is a true person in and out of the ring. His GenSan townfolks are now his numero uno priority after one more fight!

Pac is now a congressman, it's a full-time job... When there is no session in congress you go to your district and personally see the needs of your people so that you would know what bills to pile up and pass... I must say congressmen in the Philippines are not the ideal ones but most of them do their jobs and i think Pac's character as a hardworker will include him with the better ones. I think that the reason Pac wanted to fight in November is he thought it will finally be with mayweather... The fight everyone wants to see... I hope somebody else would step up their game and dominate the welterweight division so that Manny would think twice about retirement.. Because in all honesty everybody is far below pac and may in WW...

I think its very possible. I didnt like to seem him get mixed up with anything political. That can only drain/take time away from his boxing. I think I read where even Arum was talking about he couldnt go to the wildcard gym and train anymore, most of the time would have to be done around his congress time. That isnt good, no p4p boxer can work a job and still prepare to fight somebody like Mayweather.

i'm still with the thinking that pac vs mayweather has to happen at some stage surely am i being naive? :frown: nope. floyd made this fight as hard as possible to make, with the unheard of testing and the purse split. now that it has been worked out, he decided to take a vacation, knowing well that manny has been record a few times that he will be retiring soon. a ****ing vacation when the deal has been agreed upon... the **** is that? even if manny don't retire after november, floyd is gonna find a way not to fight him. he said it himself, he is not interested to fight pacquiao. floyd has grown vaginas where his balls should be.

yup. then floyd is gonna call him out when he's retired. then his nuthugging army would say manny was the one ducking floyd all this time. the guy already said he was the one who doesn't want to fight, yet they still try to defend his bitch ass.

PBF is messing Pac about so much, that Pac is probably getting rusty and needs a warm up fight, even though he has been active and building up momentum. PBF has bought him down again. This is what PBF does to people.

For those laughing and thinks it is BS to listen to our parents (mothers and fathers) about their wishes or desires even so in our independent age and time, we actually respect and honor their wishes! The Filipinos are actually family oriented and most above 90% have fully functional, happy family way of living! Most are poor yes but, we don't believe in shitty broken families like most of you all have known or experienced with. Money is ZERO without a family! Filipinos respect their parents so leave it at that. Manny is retiring after one more fight. He's got more than enough to last him and a few of his generations a lifetime. He needs to concentrate next into giving back to his hometown who he thinks he owes so much. Manny shows humility, poise and kindness amidst all the name calling and hating around him. This is how we the Filipinos are raised in your so called 3rd world country. I bet my bottom dollar you can't say the same for your family! /end thread :dance:

yep, pac retiring after november.... damn what a sad day mayweather and pac cant be done

the belief is that manny said 1 more fight (his mother asked him to retire). Arum might get him to do 2 more.

I hate to say it but u are right bro, pac will surely retire after his fight this november to concentrate on the politics and to honor his promise to her mother, that's why i'm very disappointed that the fight with mayweather didn't happen this november so this means that the fight will never happen at all.:frown:
