    If i was team Barrios I would be trying to make a Ryan garcia fight next. Especially if talks of boots vs teofimo are real

    it gives barrios a name and it gives Ryan a title shot at 147.

    Pacquiao just got beat up in a exhibition. He needs to stay retired and lead the Philippines like he's been doing

      For people thinking it is Sean Gibbons wanting this, you should listen to all the interviews of Pac coming out of Dubai. He's been asked many times about facing someone and he has the look that he wants to really bad. He even said he's still in great shape and can do it. He said he wouldn't mind Ryan Garcia or Tank. That's nuts when you have a 45yr old calling to face Tank and even said he would prefer him, lol.

        No one wants to see the shell of Pacquaio lose to fighters who couldn't lace his boots but this is the sad reality for most great fighters.

          Once again, Pacquiao is dragging fans by the wallet to witness yet another overhyped spectacle, stepping into the ring with a glorified punching bag from Mexico

              Having said that, Barrios is not very good, but has a big heart, no fear, and I respect him.

              If it's a Pacquiao pretty past it but had a bit left as against Ugas, your say he has a chance. If it's the few rounds displayed in the exhibition, then not good.
              Manny could still punch and Barrios is not very good and has been down a few times, they are not picking Crawford or Tank etc they are strategically looking at somebody they have a chance of beating, if Manny wants to box again and passes all physicals then why not its his life and if he wants to compete and chase some money and prestige go for it life is short hope he does well.

                He got his ass whooped by a non-boxer the last time he was in a ring. Any ranked contender is going to beat him even more easily than Ugas did.

                  I doubt he would prepare the same and he has a champions heart and his power is last to leave and Barrios is not much, will he get beat the odds say so, human spirit is about doing what naysayers say you cant, the essence of life is to do, its not to sit on a soapbox or to stop trying, as I said its his life and its his trade he could box Barrios in his sleep and not get a bloody nose he is a tradesman he has choices how to fight, who are you or I to say he shouldn't try, when you get old you will understand this.

                    Barrios easily handled Ugas right after Ugas made Pac look even older than he is. You're delusional and so is Manny.

                      Barrios looked pretty ordinary last fight, delusional about what, being ok if Manny wants to try I just have a broader more generalized opinion on whether Manny have the fight, its not about winning or losing Im debating the right to try, youve got an obsession about Manny losing bad, Im saying I dont know how I dont like arguing things like that so far out from the event, I just think if he passes all the medical tests and he wants to fight Im ok with it.
