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

[Combat Talk Radio]

Is it ignorance or you just intentionally avoided to name euro eastern fighters?

I think Usyk and Loma along with Joshua, Mickey, TC and Nelo are leading this new wave.

Well, they are at least much more worthy than Eubank jr

Eubank is a world champion who had one bad night where he didn't even lose that badly, and has been on a knockout streak ever since.

Meanwhile....

Lomachenko WOULD be included had he not gotten beaten ragged by Orlando Salido - with whom he still has problems and has yet to rematch to avenge the loss; not to mention his tendency to drain everyone on the way to the top. And I say this as a fan of his.

Oleksandr Usyk ain't fought nobody yet. 12 fights?

I'd give you Tyson Fury, but he's self-destructive.

Clinchko just got outboxed in his last two fights and he's at the end of his career.

I'd give you Daniel Geale had he not gotten stopped by Cotto.

I'd give you Billy Joe Saunders - as a fan - but he's like Calzaghe, barely eeking out victories nowadays.

I'd give you Vyacheslav Glazkov, except he went life or death with a known quit artist in Malik Scott.

THAT is why they're not listed.

Now...who else is even worth mentioning?

We all grow old. It sucks. Many in this site grow old backwards. They have records dating back years, yet still behave like they're teenagers saying things your kids won't even think of saying.

Doesn't suck if you've made millions and can sit back and retire with family and friends. Pacquiao needs to retire and enjoy his wealth, it's like he's been seeking the mother of all KOs since the Marquez fight. Has nothing to prove. Arum is a snake.

How the hell is the Phillipines a neutral place? Getting old does suck, huh Roach?

[LaBéstia]

I'll miss Maidana and Marquez the most...
I just can't feel sorry for Pac, he just went crazy on that born again stuff... Jinky beating religion into him so he wouldn't cheat anymore killed his career

Pacquaio, Mayweahter, they need to leave this sport alone now.
We don't need another decade of Paq/May debates.
Horn is the future now.

Hell heah buncha dudes beings some f@g n **** like some ******

[NC Uppercut]

Pac just hang em up. If you rematch Horn, it is what it is. The days of the fire have slowed down to the days of salt water!

[Manic Shot]

Manny should retire now and enjoy some "penoy n balut".

Not unusual for aging greats to fight B level type fighters on their way out.

We definitely have plenty of the new era stars to look forward to now and in the future, boxing is in great hands for the future. I also appreciate what the aging stars have done and given us as well. I don't have an issue with what they are doing, they will be retired very soon so I just remember and enjoy while I can.

Fair enough bro, you're right, better than nothing.
