Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao Should Retire Now; 'Getting Older Sucks!'

[OgTripleOg]

Roach said Horn fought dirty and now he thinks Pac should retire? He acts like Manny really lost this fight. I think Pac should leave Roach honestly

[Floyd is TBE]

Pac should hang em up, Jeff Horn might stop him in the rematch. He can't fight at an elite level at 38 the way Floyd or Hopkins did

He just made $10,000,000+. No WAY would I retire. He doesn't need to fight the young studs but a rematch with Horn and then fight Khan.

I don't think Horn KO's Manny. Usually the better boxer does better in rematches. He needs to remember how to finish ppl again. Pac should retire roach and hire Abel or Robert.

Roach has said for years that when he sees Manny slipping he'll tell him to hang em up, seems like he's actually keeping his word.

I think Manny should just get the rematch and retire win lose or draw. There's no where to go but down from here. Even if he managed to beat one of the top guys at 147 he'd probly have to go life & death just to barely get the w. And for what? What does Pac beating anyone at this point do for his already cemented legacy? Get out while the choice is still yours Manny.

Pac shoulda brought someone in to help him but Roach would have none of that. I can't believe Roach can still even hold the mitts for Manny. Over the past 5 years Mannys had some of the worst sparring partners and worst advice in the corner of any top level fighter I've ever seen.

Roach can't teach Manny anything new at this point. He never tells Manny to go to the body. He doesn't encourage him to use his legs more. He can't teach him to fight on the back foot. All he can say is "in and out" "side to side" "keep backing him up". He expects Manny to fight like he's still 25.

Pacs too loyal to leave Freddy and at this point it's pointless to switch trainers unless he was trying to prolong his career. I could be wrong but I have a strong feeling Pacs gonna get his rematch in Manila put on one last show for his people and call it quits.

And Roach ran off his best conditioning coach Ariza. That's when he was KOing bigger dude's. Floyd even admitted he helped him a lot.

Your right. He's loyal to a fault. He stuck with Bob and let Roach run off his best trainers...
