I find it funny Manny is open to Mario but not Boots or Norman. Boots vs Pacquiao is a big ppv fight.

Mayhe because Pacquiao is danm near 50 and going for the easiest champion? Common sense bro

You mean in not wanting to die? He doesn't even beat Barrios at this point.

Barrios is really not that good. The man well and truly does not belong at world level. Even then though, he’s probably still good enough to beat a guy much smaller and significantly older. I’d love to see Manny pull another rabbit out of a hat but I fear he’s run out of tricks.

Barrios has, without any doubt, the best manager in the world! Although very average, he keeps getting these huge pay checks. Simply incredible... This is boxing for you.

I blame this new generation for even letting someone like barrios-tier to even win a world title
especially letting him hold it for this long

it's like a world title on a silver platter but nobody is eager to take it
cant blame manny

It really is amazing and I give him a great chance at beating old man Pac at this point which should set him up for some more big fights.

He has been inactive. That is why there is zero chance he does a Foreman (who spent 2 years fighting scrubs before he stepped up in his comeback, which Pacquiao is not), Hopkins or Archie Moore.

Please keep him out of the ring.

"Gibbons said Pacquiao is poised to announce his boxing plans as soon as the election results are finalized.

A long-time matchmaker said, “If he [Pacquiao]’s coming back to fight for a title, this is the exact guy you want to do it against.” "



Barrios is the "exact guy", meaning that he's the weakest link. Ennis would do to Pacquiao...what Thurman failed to do.

I like pacquiao
but boxing needs to reject him
the same way filipinos are about to eject him from government in this coming election.

It's good for him
It's good for boxing
It's good for the philippines

Barrios has one job and he better not screw up
