Comments Thread For: Roach: If Pacquiao Wins, I Will Ask Him To Retire

[jas]

And Marquez doesn't wanna fight PAC

His trainer and manager said fights with pacquaio shorten your career

They know what's required to beat PAC

[M Bison]

People care about Floyd's unbeaten record than he probably does at this point

He's about to retire soon

And if he loses, he can cushion the blow with 180 mil in one fight

That's incredible for a man who started with little

Don't get me wrong, he cares enough to give it his all come may 2nd but if he loses, he won't go into hiding or depression like foreman did.

And if he loses and wants the rematch, he would still be the bigger draw.

Point is If he does lose which I don't see happening is...
Pacquiao holds all the cards and he doesn't need to worry about that fight, he is in the stronger stance and Floyd would be left wanting to correct a blemish on his record.
60-40 for Floyd on a rematch, I definitely don't think so.

[Evol]

He didn't say that-he just wants $10 mil. Sort of like how you posted if Manny beats Floyd he should only offer Floyd 70/30 for the rematch.



I think Manny is transitioning to his political life. I think win or lose he goes after the JMM 5th fight. I think he wins that.

Crawford will have made his way a little further up the ladder by then, making that fight viable. I think win or lose, that's it for Manny.

i was joking around with the vada testing. but marquez already said no to a 5th fight with manny.

Marquez said a lucrative offer to fight Pacquiao for the fifth time was on the table, but he ended it up turning it down.

"I've been offered a lot of money for a [fifth] fight with Pacquiao," Marquez told Boxingscene.com.

"But for me honor, prestige and respect for a country comes first. And, why do a fifth fight? Considering we won."

[Evol]

TC will be manny's last fight. arum failed to make bradley a super star after robbing pac and crawford seem to have a better following than bradley so its pac vs crawford.

[Lagoon]

Manny should retired because he has got all the fame but he should decide because he know better about himself.

[Bronx2245]

I really don't see why Floyd or Manny would really want to fight after May 2nd, win, lose, or draw, unless it's a rematch. There's no one out there that can draw the same kind of money. I would love to see Floyd fight GGG at 154, or Manny fight Crawford at 140, but neither guy really changes their legacies in the sport, and no one is paying $99 to see those fights either.

When they first started ..neither had families... so they fought primarily for money.

So now they've earned the $$$ and this one fight alone, they are well set... each have families that are well taken care.

They have been fighting for 20 years + pretty much (including amateurs).

Both have Hall of Fame careers. Wouldn't blame either for wanting to retire.
But it'll be honorable to grant a rematch if the fight is close or controversial.

If it's not close, then a rematch is not necessary.

[-Antonio-]

I don't care what they say, if this fight is even a little close there will be a rematch. There is too much money to be made.
