    Prime Pacquiao would've ended Broner in Round 7/8 - was gutted he couldn't pull through.

    I love Pacquiao but he's old now and I think he should retire. Maybe a last fight with Floyd Mayweather to cash out then retire for good.

Now he's just chugging along cashing every check he can get & he can lose to all these guys at 147 that got a belt & he's still not gonna be cashed out. And Manny might even get another cash out vs Floyd. Or if McGregor boxes again Manny could be in play for that payday too.



        Manny's a tough dude. And oddly outside of his KO losses the worst I ever seen him look in a fight waa when Horn was allowed to mug him. I'm not sure Manny beats any of these guys except maybe Porter, but I don't think he's gonna take some horrific beating to any of them.

        And hell man Manny has money problems cuz its come so easily to him like a lot of athletes. Nothing is gonna save him from himself with that except him having big money coming in post boxing.



        Lol wut? What kinda paydays do you think Josh Kelly & Regis Prograis are bringing Manny?

        And do you honestly think Manny is running over those guys anyway?

        He's not getting paid half as much for those fights & those guys are risks too. And at Manny's age he could come in a shadow of himself for any fight & be done. In the risk vs reward assessment it makes zero sense for an old guy to not run towards the money while he can.

        And lol at your theory the PBC 147lbers get sorted out by the end of this year. Thurman has been sitting on his hands for a year & change now & he's only fighting Josesito Lopez next. I got no faith he'll fight again this year. And Porter has had chances to fight Spence already. These guys ain't figuring out nothing with who's #1 in the next 11 months. I'm not even confident there will be a fight between the 3 of them that happens this year.
        Manny can get decent money fighting almost anybody, and all the 140 champs would pose a risk, but they are all winnable fights. The 147 champs are all high risk, and the reward wouldn't be that great. Thurman, Porter, and Spence, need to fight each other to really make the Pacquiao PPV big.

        Also, you said you don't think Manny will take a horrific beating against any of the 147 champs, but I think he could end up like Adonis Stevenson if he's not careful. Spence is stopping everyone they put in front of him, Thurman has good power, and Porter's rough style would be a nightmare for Pacquiao based on the Horn fight.

            Porter or Berto, if he wants to keep fighting.

            Two proven welterweights.

              I think danny manny would be a badasss fight. Manny can definitely hang with all the top welters IMO

                After the 7th, it was kinda ****** of Buboy telling Manny not to go for the kill. Buboy prolly still traumatized from that Marquez fight

                  Ahh maybe they were scared to death because Pac still hit like a ton of bricks.
                  Haven’t you noticed most Pac opponents back pedal when Pac is their opponent. You guys should realise pac, packs a wallop in his punches. They go on survival mode when they taste it. Tyson always say, everyone has a plan until they get hit.

                    The winner of Spence/Garcia would be great

                    As a Filipino, I'll be so afraid to see Pac going against Spence

                      I think Thurman, Crawford and Spence want no piece of this version of Manny.

                      They are unbeaten lions, getting first L against 40 years old smaller man would hurt their legacy bad.

                      Otherwise, Porter, Danny, Granados, Berto...don`t have to care about unbeaten status.
