Comments Thread For: Roach Warns That He May Ask Pacquiao To Retire

[MC Hammer]

He's lost 3 of his last 6. Its time for him to hang it up. Roach has been saying this for years, but even with increasing losses there is never a call to retire.

im not saying roach is full of **** but he always seems like hes about to tell a fighter to retire or stop a fight etc etc and he never does any of it. i think his heart is in the right place i just dont think he can pull the trigger

pac should call out kahn in the media repeatedly, lead him on and then pick brook for the massive payday. After the Brook fight announce his retirement and ignore Khan.

I just want to see khan cry more, its amusing.

I bet he tells guys to retire all the time, but if they decide not to, he's not going to kick them out of the gym knowing damn well they will fight for someone else, probably someone who is less experienced.

Well one was more than highly debatable, one was to a fighter that was doping & knew him like the back of his hand, and the other was to the "best fighter of the generation" - & only one was by KO. We'll see...I think he just wants to make a little more money, go out with a win & maybe fight in his country or something.

pac man is finished but if he takes a safe fight like Floyd did and walks away I see no issues, hes had a hell of a career and his actions after his last fight were pathetic!

Freddie's shot.

At this point I don't see the point in Manny still fighting. He gots a great legacy & things he can do outside the ring that don't involve punches to the head + enough money where he nor his family should ever want for anything.

Fighting Crawford, Lucas or Khan or whoever doesn't enhance his legacy & even if he were to lose to them it doesn't hurt his legacy all that much if at all at his age. The only upside is for TR to make some more money or potentially the upside for TR & Crawford if Crawford were to beat Manny (I still like older Manny's chances a lot in that fight, Yuri's lil ass had TC hurt a couple times, Manny'll KO this fool). Hope he does call it a career & start politicing already. That boxing champion to Philippines President thing has been talked to death, lets get that **** popping already.

Why wait for spring? Do it now!!! IF both Floyd and Pac were to retire before the end of the year, 2015 will be one of the best years in boxing history!!!

Why would losing two of the sport's all-time best make 2015 one of the best years ever you fckin moron?!

GTFOH you fckin clown.
