manny should stick to exhibitions and steer clear of boxing if he must cherry-pick for survival

Manny and his loyal fans were super critical of Floyd’s exhibitions but now he should stick to it?

Pac doesn’t need to come back. He is 45 years old now. However, if he can get himself back into the same physical condition where he still has the speed and the same chin that he once had then he could give Barrios a real run for his money. However, Boots is another story and out of the question. He’ll hurt Manny.

He hasn't won in 5 years and he hasn't fought in 3 years. He has no chance against any legitimate welterweights in 2024.

No chance against a guy a 135 knocked out, ok guess we will see how it goes.

He's 45, 3 years inactive, and the last time he fought he got his ass whooped by Yordenis Ugas. The last time Yordenis Ugas fought he got his ass whooped by Mario Barrios. Time waits for nobody, especially not at 147.

The last time Manny won a fight, Teofimo Lopez hadn't even won his first world title yet.

Manny would not have lost to the Ugas that Barrios beat, Spence wrecked him, Manny is an atg and will still punch really hard, and barrios is a come forward guy this is part of the reason they chose him, Manny is a live dog and there ain't nothing special that Barrios does.

Evert time a fighter challenges himself this forum is full of nay sayers dogging them, if Manny wants to have a crack that's on him I say good luck to him and hope he pulls it off, same if TC fights Canelo good luck to him, I like seeing fighters shoot for their stars , Im not going to sht can them for trying.

Forget about Pac fighting Boots. He won't get past Barrios; probably gets stopped.

Yet another money grab by Manny Pacquiao, following the same pattern of hyping fights with deceit.

[richardt]

Pac would have "some" success for about 3 rounds against Ennis, but then women and children would need to be removed from the building or watch Ennis massacre the legend. I don't think Pac is that dumb.

[richardt]

And Barrios would at the very least outpoint Pac. Not a good look for Pac even thinking of these things.

[GhostofDempsey]

I don't think Manny can beat this version of Barrios at 147. This isn't the weight drained Barrios that lost to Tank. This would also not be a huge PPV fight, doesn't seem worth the risk.
