So when Mayweather retires in his prime with the public and the boxing community demanding he fight Cotto, or the other welters in a division that's been the best there's been in years it's cool and not ducking.. but when Manny does it, it is? What hypocrites!

Damn right!

October bout should be against Mayweather, then he should retire.

I'm disappointed in Pacquiao.

Hmmm, if this is true then I think he'll most likely fights Mayweather. Looks like he's just looking to 'cash out' and 'retire' young. I think he'll then comeback at 32, 33. Idk why all of these boxers think boxing fans will believe them retiring at 30.

Like that saying goes:
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Manny you will NOT win the election.

You're an athlete, when was the last time an athlete made it to politics? .

Manny has been boxing since the age of 16, most fighters who start out young finish up in their 30's, maybe manny just wants some time out of boxing.
