If Mayweather didn't retire back in 07 Pacquiao would not have got the DLH fight or the P4P #1 spot.

I think it's the fact that he's slowed and isn't as entertaining to watch as a result, secondly his opponent selection is pretty bad.

Pacquiao was famous because he was a f**king amazing fighter. He's easily the second best fighter of the generation. He'll go down as a legend and will get into the boxing Hall of Fame the very first second he's eligible. Now yes, did him being perceived as the biggest threat to Floyd boost his popularity? Yeah, obviously. I mean I'm not delusional.
And dude, he's on the doorstep of 40 years old and he's selling out a 55,000 capacity stadium in freaking Australia. Clown the Horn fight all y'all want but how many fighters, at the very end of their career, can go fight freaking Jeff Horn and put 55,000 asses in seats in f**king Brisbane?
To say that Manny Pacquiao is only famous because of Floyd...I mean wow. That's disrespectful as f**k, holmes. Go look at his accolades. His achievements list is so f**king long you can make it into a f**king book.

By the way I don't how many times I have to repeat this **** but the f**king guy is damn near FORTY. The f**k are you guys gonna be doing at 40?
He's been in the f**king pro game since 1996. He's approaching 70 f**king professional fights. So he's not one of the top PPV draws or really even relevant in the sport anymore. Y'all know that happens, right? That guys get old and reach points in their careers where they're not as popular and relevant as they once were?
