    Mikey Garcia and Prograis both won title fights at 140. So why no clamor for Manny to fight them? Surely they are better fights than an old shot Lucas.

        Maybe welters are a bit much for a almost forty year old pac now. If he can fight guys like Alvarado, and Lucas, and Rios, I don't see why he can't fight the guys I mentioned.

          I think a guy like Mikey is definitely too much as well at this point. I wouldn’t mind them fights with Prograis or Mikey but it’s not like there’s any demand for them nor are they feasible.
          I prefer the Matthysse fight tbh, two veterans going at it in a kind of last chance fight.

            It's much harder to cut weight when you are older. He hasn't fought at 140 in ten years.

              When talking about Jeff Horn with a casual friend of mine he asked, "Manny is still boxing?"

              He's the past

                68 professional fights in over 23 years as a pro.

                I think he's earned the right to fight anyone he wants.

                  How do f**kers not grasp this??

                  The world's #1 P4P fighter at the time fought Andre f**king Berto (lmfaoooooo) and then followed that up against a dude who had never been in a professional boxing ring in his life

                  Lucas would body bag both of those f**king bums

                  Y'all do know that Pacquiao is a cup of coffee away from being 40, right?!? Jeezus. You motherf**kers at 40 wouldn't even be able to play a half court pickup game of basketball without calling 911

                    Lucas Matthysse is a good fight for Manny, hes a name, and hes got a punchers chance and can hopefully make it exciting
