Pac should push Paulie's face in and hang them up. Perfect last fight.

Pacquiao pledged he would be a "serious" senator should he win in May.

"I will not be absent because the whole country would be my responsibility," he said.

3 weeks after Manny wins the election to become senator --

Breaking news!! Manny will be out of office for 2 months to concentrate on his basketball team.

Sounds like a good plan. PAC has had a great career but he hasn't been 100% vested in boxing for years now. Floyd gone. PAC soon to be gone. Maybe these young guys will start fighting each other now.

khan will beat manny to the punch and win early rounds, but eventually i still think manny gets to his chin and stops him.


i hope manny doesn't lost to khan. that would be a sad sight to see.

Boxing will move on, like it always has. All these fighters who are avoiding the fights we want to see in hopes of landing Mayweather or Pacquiao will no longer have any reason to avoid each other. We'll get great fights, some fighters will rise above others, and new stars will be born.

Mayweather and Pacquiao retiring is exactly what boxing needs right now.

Throw in Wlad and you have a deal. Too many young fighters who should be fighting each other waiting for a handout from these geezers still cashing checks on who they were 5 years ago.

It's time for the new era..

Man i wish too. If he could survive the first 3 rounds he could hit GGG at will. Look like Margarito part 2. Plus what better way than to get support back on your side. Fight most dangerous guy in boxing at a lower weight 154. Would also win lose or draw get him some respect for taking on GGG. Plus it would be a great way for Uncle Bob to cash him out. Think about money to be made in Macau with these two fighting there.

I like Pacquaio too but man c'mon...ain't a natural 147 pounder in the world going to take a chin check from Golovkin. Argue about his foot work, his defense, and anything else...his power cannot be denied. Manny was small for welterweight, if Golovkin taps that chin it's ambien mode from then on.

Enjoy retirement bruh, you did a hell of a lot more than the boxing world expected you to. I hope if he does lose the election he actually stays retired. Either him or Floyd coming back to fight for money would just be a tragedy of ******ity. If you can't live off that last check you got...

[The Big Dunn]

Manny deserves to finish his career against Floyd or JMM. He has more than earned the right to go out trying to avenge his last losses.

The Big Dunn will miss having you around. Great fighter, great comedic value, some great fans to have some fun with. I will not miss the dip**** wing of your fanbase.

Good luck in politics. Remember, condoms save lives!

FYI, Pacquiocare can't just be pouring saltwater on the sick and injured.

Also, you can't close down the Filipino IRS.

Manny Pacquiao will go down, in Boxing History, as one of the All-Time great Welterweights.

Love him or hate him, he always brought the excitement (excuse the Mayweather fight). Pac will be missed the most by the fighters currently in boxing looking to cash in on an older, past prime fighter, that still generates cash unlike any other boxer currently in the sport. Missed by Amir Khan more than anyone, should he not get Pac's farewell fight

Ride off into the sunset Pacquiao...you've done well.
