    I'd like to see Manny just retire. He ain't got nothing to prove & I feel like Arum is just gonna try to line him up with Crawford (although I'm not sold on Crawford definitely winning that) in hopes he can make Crawford his next big name PPV guy (good luck with selling a black guy from Nebraska on PPV these days).
    Outside of Pacquiao, Arum looks to be all out of PPV fighters, and it's nothing less than he deserves.

      Itll be a soft touch using the "injury" as excuse and then after "pac is back"

      I see more than one fight.

          This is the one I'm expecting, but there are others that are possible.

          I see Pac winning that.

            This is one of two places I've heard Arum iterate this, but when asked about Pac fighting Khan/Garcia/Crawford his response was that the only opponents he's discussed so far are Khan and Crawford.


            (0:50-2:00 ish is where this comes up, but they discuss other things, saltwater, bradley etc)

              it's odd that bob arum has eben reduced to trying to turn terence crawford into the next star, but you may be right.


              bob arum is in his mid 80's now. he'll be 84 in december. 84!!! he's not going to be promoting forever.

                pacquiao's finances probably haven't rebounded, even with the mayweather fight. he's looking at teh light at the end of the tunnel, and will finance his life with that in mind, but i think he'll fight more than once more.


                would you turn down another several million dollar payday? i know i wouldn't.

                  There is no where left for him to go. He's been the most exposed boxer ever, after 5-2-15, his fake religion shyt (god told him that he will deliver floyd into his hands), Illegitimate kid with a hooker, his shoulder and subsequent salt water therapy to heal it in 3 months, it didnt matter what floyd would do, because he was prepared, his "killer instinct" being back, his supposedly ferocious style (well a couple of first round right hands cured him of that), selling 275K of ppvs vs Algeiri and less vs Rios. leave already, he's probably lying as usual and he need to stop eating people's pets. "its ****ed up over there"

                    He did well cashing out with a Mayweather fight, they both did. The fight was the equivalent of 5 fights for Pacquiao.

                    It would depend on how much money I have in the bank and whether or not the money I earned would be life altering.

                    Boxing is a bit difficult as the pay cheque will always be there so long as you're healthy. You don't want to leave the sport when you are no longer in a position to make money.

                      More BS Top Rank fighter rotation. Winner will get Pac next year (unless of course Floyd gives him another shot)
