Comments Thread For: Koncz: If Pacquiao Retires, Happiest Day of My Life

[aboutfkntime]

Advice for Manny: Before you step into the ring again, get separate counsel and accountants to go over your affairs. Settle all tax debts, advances and debts, get a clear view of your finances and where you stand financially. Then decide if you need or want to fight again.

Pacquiao should have done that years ago, it is obviously too late now.

Why Pacquiao resigned with Arum, when he clearly does not need a promoter..... why Pacquiao is happy to have Michael Koncz as his personal advisor, when it has been revealed that Koncz draws a wage from Top Rank..... and, why Pacquiao is happy to receive 25mil of his 80mil purse..... are three factors that I suspect I will never understand.

There is obviously a reason why Manny is the worst businessman ever.

Lmfao.....

Manny if your take for the Mayweather fight is 120 million $ dollars, you better make sure you get what you are suppose to get, you cannot trust Arum or Konz to do that, have an outsider look at your finances and tax liabilities, Manny trust me on this matter.

I don't keep myself up to speed with Pacquiao's current tax situation, so he very well may have to keep fighting for the money. Although damn, he just received like the 2nd biggest purse in the history of the sport, so one would think that would've put a massive dent in it or wiped it out altogether. But then again like I said, I don't keep up with that. Maybe he does owe more, who the hell knows.

If he doesn't though, I don't really see the point. Coming off a major surgery that's going to take a half year of recovery time. Dude isn't getting any younger. He'll be what, 37 by the time he is ready to partake in another camp? What truly relevant fight options would be left at that time? I mean relevant as far as his legacy goes. Would beating a guy like Danny Garcia enhance his legacy? Or Kell Brook? Those names do zero for his legacy at this point. Sure they'd be great wins for Garcia or Brook (if they were to win), but for Pacquiao they do nothing.

I've had a lot of fun on the Pacquiao ride and wished it wasn't over (or surely close to it anyway), but at some point you have to seriously consider what the point it is...there's nothing left to do. He scaled the mountain and got the Mayweather fight -- and he blew his chance. It's over.

The good thing is, at THIS stage in his career, the only people who will be upset if he does retire are his tired a$$ fanbase. Me for one, would be elated [if he retired] because I would not have to filter through any of your dumb comments anymore and me and the true boxing fans can finally resume discussing boxing like gentlemen.

The fact he's just had surgery at 36 for a large rotator cuff tear is a clear indication that it's time to retire. That right hand will never be the same again, it took roach eons to get Pacquaio to the point he would use the right hand as much as his left, 9 months is a lot of time at this age bracket, he doesn't have 2 years to rebuild the strength in that arm and the best physical therapist isn't going to really speed that process up.

Good post. Have you experienced such a injury yourself? I think ist hard for People to tell how hard it is to get back to 100% if you have no experience with such Kind of injuries. Anyway, shoulder injury or not, Pacman is not the same anymore and has archieved A LOT during his Long career, he should think about retirement.

Yeah cause they got away with the biggest con/caper ever. Selling Pacquiao as a threat to Mayweather.

And it must be sinking in about now that only Manny fanboys are buying the shoulder excuse for losing , after the famous meeting in the dressing room Team Pac tried the BS but failed everyone is onto it so no rematch .

Time to hang them up Champ you had a great career and made a lot of money go and enjoy life .

That is true !

A number of writers/analysts/commentators have since commented on the injury..... nobody appears to be buying it. Most are scoffing at the suggestion of a rematch.

Too funny, Flo mos tried hard to celebrate JR 's BS win but they can't!
Manny beats JR with one hand, deal with it! Manny can retire anytime now!

[Rolaz]

In this world it's all about money...so, retiring is one issue and earning hundreds of millions of dollars is another temptation that's facing Pacman!
With high tech medicine, healing a shoulder injury isn't a problem.

So I won't be surprise if a rematch with runner Floyd jr will come to reality next year!
