    How many fights does Pacquiao have left?

    i read people talking about pacquiao not wasting one of the 2-3 fights he has left in him on williams. i agree williams is a bum and a cheater and manny is a great fighter but why do people think he only has 2 or 3 fights. he is only 32 right?

    By the time he retires, I reckon he'll be at least 34. Great time to quit while you're ahead I suppose. Roy Jones should have done the same thing.

            He needs to retire sooner rather than later. He has done enough to make himself FOTD, so the only place to go after that is down.

            One or two more wins over great opponents and thats it. That will elevate him from FOTD to GOAT.

                He should retire while he still has that fire burning, once the fire starts to dwindle he'll only be hurting his legacy by fighting on. It also seems that Manny is starting to focus much more on his political career and helping his country, that's what he feels is his logical next step.

                  the thing is, pacquiao/mayweather might not even happen anytime next year...not until 2012. pacquiao will more than likely fight two fights in 2011...maybe cotto early 2011 (for the wba/wbc belts) since cotto is looking for the biggest fight, then after that...maybe as been rumored, may fight pavlik at 154 if pavlik can go down to 154 or a catchweight of 157, which is no different from lightweights (marquez) and jr welterweights (hatton, now possibly khan) moving up to fight mayweather.

                  if pac goes undefeated into 2012, then i can see pac/mayweather early 2012...if and only if mayweather is not in jail...if he is, pac retires at age 33 and just focus on his congressman duties. OR,

                  maybe pac could end his last fight if not against mayweather, against martinez for the 160...that would than be an even bigger fight than against mayweather.

                    I think he's just getting into his prime and i'd say he has at least a few more years at the top. Potentially i think he can be considered one of the best ever if he were to keep fighting the best, personally i wanted him to fight at 147 a few times and move down to 140 and take everyone out, which he could.
