    Not really, Mayweather's control of range is what mostly did it, he knew he was gonna have to take risks to land. That wont be as big a problem against the names you mentioned.

        Manny doesn't need to retire. Frankly, he owes us a free fight on HBO to make up for not showing up for this one.

        Poster original is correct-Manny would still beat most guys at 147 so he shouldn't retire.

            choose an easy fight and retire with a win.

              I voted no. I think there are still a lot of good options for fights left for Pac (unlike Floyd who doesn't have much sellable options at this point). The only way he should retire is if he feels the same way as Floyd, that he doesn't truly love the sport anymore.

                  Yes. The run is over. As a Pac fan I can tell you that it was amazing while it lasted, but all good things come to an end. The run is over.

                  Or maybe like Mitchell said, a sure win farewell fight in Manila or something, but outside of that it's time to ride off into the sunset.

                    Even though I'm not a big fan of Pacquiao, but I would love to see him fight Danny Garcia at 145 lbs, I thibk he can still beat a lot of guys out there, just keep him away from the counterpunchers and he'll be fine, but I think once he loses or gets in a close fight he should just retire, nothing left to prove.
