So Manny Is Retired

[GrandpaBernard]

Always wanted to see Manny against the likes of Garcia/Thurman/Porter/Brook.

Brook would be the greatest challenge.

He's a poor man's Floyd offensively with more jabbing and isn't afraid to clinch.

Garcia would be easy and comfortable.

Porter is an easy but physically grueling match.

Keith-manny high action fight. one of the few welters that can actually hurt manny.

It depends what happens next month in the Philippines Senate election. If he wins (which he is in the running to do in polls last I looked) then he'll have a 6 year term as a senator that he'll be 43 by the time it ends. That could lead to another 6yr term or a run for the President of the Philippines which seems to be his ultimate goal. Its been said that he wouldn't be able to be a active senator & have a active boxing career. Idk how true or untrue that actually is for sure, but I've seen it stated several times so I tend to believe it to be more true than not.

I, for one, hope he's done. He's got nothing else to prove. If his last fight was last night its one of the best retirement fights I've seen in my time as a boxing fan. And he should be solid money-wise after the Floyd fight so he doesn't need to get hit in the head anymore. Plus I like a boxing guy who gets to do big things outside of boxing & Manny could potentially be one of the most productive boxers outside the ring if he becomes a successful politician.

I don't think he's too small for Canelo, bring on the winner of Canelo-Khan.

[strykr619]

yes or no?

He wants to but didn't sound firm about it.

If he wins his election he is done, if not then money money time....

[FrankieClutch]

There's nothing left for him to accomplish in the sport. I hope he retires

I don't think he's too small for Canelo, bring on the winner of Canelo-Khan.

Canelo would be at least 20 lbs larger on fight night. Manny hasn't demonstrated he could beat anyone of that size, has been stopped by a guy much smaller than that only a few years ago, and would be 12 years his senior. How is this not a mismatch?

We know bob is gonna try and match him with Vargas lol. Canelo fight is dumb

I'm trying not to think about this possibility... lol

[Biolink]

He needs to leave. He has nothing to prove to anybody at this point. He should just ride off and live like a king in his country... he should.

Realistically Bob Arum probably has him signed to a slave deal so he'll be out there for as long as Bob can keep convincing him. I hope I'm wrong.

He'd better. You always want to go out on a high.

[Sun_Tzu]

I hope so.
