If he wants it, come up to 147 and fight him.

If he wants it, come up to 147 and fight him.

But they been crying all these years saying Manny is this 135 pounder whos best weight is 140 why not have Manny fight at his best weight if it is as they say and he is a 140 pounder .

If he doesn't fight Crawford he should just retire

If he doesn't fight Crawford or the winner of Thurman vs Garcia, he should hang them up. No more Jessie Vargas's of the world.

Just get him a fight Bob, he's a nuisance to PH senate.

Hang em up already.. What more do you need to accomplish really.. At this point its all about the money... I dont blame him though but Pacman has declined and NO he doesnt beat Mayweather if they did have a rematch...

This statement from a diehard Pacman whos followed his career since day1..

Amazing seeing comments from trolls criticising his choice of opponents. After all Manny has done people want to talk trash. Disgusting.

[Bronx2245]

Terence Crawford, Shawn Porter, or the Keith Thurman/Danny Garcia winner, are all good choices! I don't think he can beat any of them! The best chance of winning is another Arum idea, and that's Lomachenko @ 140! That would be a very nice legacy fight for Manny! NO JEFF HORN!!

It's funny. Arum says that it's up to Manny and Manny says that it's up to the promoter. I don't trust either of these guys, but I put primary responsibility on Pacman at this point. He is one of the biggest names in boxing right now and if he wanted a particular fight, he can call for it. Bud, Broner (I guess), Garcia-Thurman winner, and Brook (I guess) are the only fights that I will put money on. Otherwise, they can have it. I'm not interested in seeing him fight Jeff Horn, who I think they will probably end up going with. Just pathetic how boxing keeps doing its fans..

Yea, no joke right?


"That's up to Manny so I punt that to Manny. Manny will tell me and we have a number of opponents we're considering, a number of ways to go, a number of venues we're talking to about and nothing is going to be finalized till I go to the Philippines and do my due diligence," stated the veteran promoter."

Someone was on here the other day bashing some people over the head with a mallet trying to convince them that Arum called the shots!! And he's plainly stating that it's up to Manny...

I'd like to see him against Crawford. Tough fight to win but not impossible for Pacquaio. Errol Spence jr is too powerful for Manny though.

Pac can just retire, nobody's talking about boxing anymore. Al Haymon won't take anything for less and so does Bob and they can't underpay Pacman because he can guarantee a minimum of 200k PPV buys not including the gate sales and non of the Jr.Welter and Welterweight boxers can generate more money than Pac. I hope Crawford moves up and Haymon's stable doesn't price the themselves out like Khan and Broner did.
