Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao Noncommittal on Fighting Beyond November 5

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Ever the politician, Manny Pacquiao has mastered the art of answering tough questions without offering a full answer. The former eight-division titlist remains locked in for his November 5 showdown with reigning welterweight beltholder Jessie Vargas, which takes place at Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The bout's announcement came just a few months after the future Hall of Famer announced his retirement upon his election win to gain a seat on the Senate in his native Philippines.

i'd still be interested in watching him if he grew a pair of bollocks and fought one of thurman/spence/crawford. Dont see why he doesnt, hes at the stage of his career where he can lose a fight and just put it down to being past prime, dont see a loss to any of them really doing that much damage to his legacy

[SchoolTheseCats]

Gotta attempt to sell this fight as might or might not be last fight time in to see what he says after bout

[nycsmooth]

Even if he does fight after the 5th there's no way he's going to fight any of the 4 or5 Elites so he might as well just go away after Vargas...

He is a the stage where he can fight whoever he wants. He is a legend and besides he whipped Bradley who would give any of those names a tough night. This is Manny Pacquiao we need to respect whatever he has left.

Would anyone trust anything he has to say anyway?

[DumpkinsPlus5]

He'll keep fighting for the same reason he's fighting now

[DeadLikeMe]

He needs the money already. He participated in the most lucrative fight in history and burned through it in less than a year. He's gonna be fighting til he's 50.

This writer Jake Donovan don't know $h1t about lineal championship! Tied with Floyd's 4 lineal title? really? This writer should ask boxing historians like Springs Toledo and Cliff Rold what lineal championship is all about

I remain noncommittal on if I even care if he fights again.
