Pacquiao, enough is enough!?

[IceTrayDaGang]

yall know what... do i think manny can beat the top 147 guys right now? yes i do! but i've come to realize that he's also 40!!! i caught myself trying to tell this 40 years old man to go and fight these top young guys and im like damm that's fvvvcked up!

so im gonna fall back on trying to tell pac to go after these young guys. the man has done enough for boxing and he can choose to do w-t-f he wants. i shouldnt be trying to force tough fights on him at this age. but if he decides to fight spence then i will root for him, if he chooses someone else then i will still support that.

i also wanna apologize to mikey and his family for saying some nasty shiiet about them this week lol.. mikey should deserve respect for moving up 2 weight classes. as a boxing fan, im just gonna enjoy these fights, whoever it is, we shouldnt be shiieting on it.

I 100% agree with your comments about Pacquiao. Asking him to fight all the top fighters is unrealistic. I think he should give it up.
Garcia. I don't know what his motivation was for fighting Spence. Don't care really. It"s irrelevant. What surprised me was how some people tried to put Spence on the level of a club fighter. I like both guys as individuals the fight happened it's over and there was no controversy. Thank God.

So I see you're conceding Spence might be a little too much for a 40 year old Manny.

If he plans to keep on fighting he should stay away from Spence and/or Crawford.

Crawford would embarrass him and Spence would send him into retirement.

[Redd Foxx]

I feel the same. I think Manny could be competitive with top guys but there comes a point at which you have to get out while the getting is good. He's lucky to still be as healthy as he is. Take a fan-friendly throwback fight. Maybe someone like Maidana. And ride off into the sunset.

At 40, with a big azz family, the risk/reward of fighting a Spence or a Crawford is too great. Shyt is gonna catch up with you at some point. Don't throw away your health and tarnish your legacy by going out in a sad way.

[Jubei]

Its crazy to think that Manny started at 106 pounds and worked his way up, the guy is smaller than Mikey Garcia and is now 40 years old and in his prime would have given all the current top welterweights hell. I cant believe he still competes at that very top level, but come on, a killer like Spence or Crawford is not fair anymore.

Do people want to see exciting fights or bloodbaths? I think Mikey vs Thurman who is still a champion would be a great and close matchup, I hope this fight happens and if Manny loses that one decisively I hope he hangs em up.

[BLASTER1]

I'm not sure I want to see Manny fight either Spence or Crawford but he's thrown his hat in the ring still so if he's going to keep fighting he should be fighting the top guys.
Manny has a warrior spirit.
I think it's going to take going out on his shield to make him retire.
Good or bad it is what he's going to do.
I fully respect whoever he decides to fight next.
Were all very privaliged being able to watch this ATG fight.

[Mister Wolf]

He is greedy for money. Let him go out like a lot of the greats did getting the cowboy piss beat out of him by a young lion.

Crawford would embarrass him and Spence would send him into retirement.

Which is why I keep saying...the fight for Manny to send him off properly AND get a decent payday is to rematch The Hornet in Brisbane.

Before I even read the rest of the thread, I wanna say thank you for coming to your senses. We don't wanna kill this guy. He should start with the easiest, most money fights. Props to you.

Danny Garcia is my highest pick for the Pacman's level now. He might take some damage in that one too. Other than him, who are the guys he should fight? Mikey is a step higher. Find someone smaller with name and no power. Loma? Thurman I'm not sold of.

[richardt]

Pac's best bet is to target Thurman next rather than later and make that his last fight. Forget Spence and Crawford, they may be a bridge too far.
