    i am sure it will happen or something similar when arum has finally made enough off of pac (lol, could be never).
    It's a legit crossroads fight, if it gets to that point maybe next year.

    As for Pacquiao overall, I'm curious what his tax situation is in the Philippines right now.

      He probably should. Sounds like the damage to his shoulder was so horrific, it will never heal.

        it never seems to work well and is worse the older you get.
        This is true.

          He should but he won't. We all know this. Just look at this history of this sport.

              I am sure he will. I was thinking if they had the same amount of money, Pac would probably go broke first. The reason I think is, yes Floyd spends a ton on ****** *****, but he's by nature kind of a jerk and he will cut people off in a minute whereas Pac has this love for the world which makes him naive financially.

              I am sure Pac will fight until the wheels come off and a few fights after too.

                Are people ******ed? He looked ordinary against the best fighter of this era, he beats most other fighters so why the heck should he retire? If he loses one more then yes but not because he lost to Floyd.

                  I don't think he has to retire because Floyd beat him in a boxing contest.

                  There is no one he is going to fight that is really like Floyd, Crawford is the best counter puncher he can fight and that is probably where he will get pushed in time. I can see why that would be the end for him, but I do think Crawford has some holes and if he goes into a fight with Manny thinking what Floyd did he would easily be able to replicate he could be in for a rude awakening.

                  It will end badly eventually though the longer he goes it become inevitable, but as it is now he is still a marketable enough guy and he doesn't take that much damage as he currently fights.

                    Because the hunger is gone?
