I'm never been a Manny fan but let's be honest, he's 7-2 in his last 9. That said, last nights version of Manny gets worked by Crawford or Spence (really doubt Spence fight ever happens)
He should stay away from any top competition (anyone Porter level and up).

I think hes regressed clearly, still should fight a few more times. I still enjoy watching him fight and he can still compete with the top guys. Hes a great fighter and when hes gone we will miss watching him fight so might as well hope he fights a few more times and who knows he might get some nice victories.
Definitely time, problem is, The Bobfather keeps screwing him over when his contracts end so he has to sign new ones to try and avenge the losses. Don't see him beating the top WW's and he won't go up to 154 plus his fights aren't as exciting so in my opinion it's definitely time to retire before boxing retires him.
No it's not time. Manny was slower. He just missed with a lot of big punches. Most importantly his feet are not even close to the same.
That said he's a good fighter and I want to see him get his revenge on Horn before he retires.
It Is time. He won last night and Horn looked like he weighed somewhere around 160lbs, but Manny missed a lot of punches. His speed and foot work were also nowhere near what they once were.
It's over Manny, you had a HOF career.
I'd say something changed in him around 2010. He just lost that killer instinct. Fortunately he was still good enough to beat top guys but now his abilities are starting to go and it's just time to hang them up.
I think it's time. I'm not taking anything away from Manny but it's clear due to age or obligations or whatever he's not the same as he used to be.
He's an incredible offensive fighter who no longer is getting the knockouts that built his career to this point.
If your best weapon is offense and your speed and power start to go... It's time to hang em up. :(
