    what are his options for november???

    bradley? he loses to him again.

    marquez? he loses to him again.

    cotto? cotto beats him this time if it's 150 or above.

    mayweather? he gets beat the way gatti (rip) did.

    pac should just retire.

    I thought Pacquiao won against Bradley based on the lead he built up at the start..

    But the way a fighter like Bradley - who is a very good fighter at world level dont get me wrong, but basically is nothing that should be troubling a guy who is supposed to be pound for pound one of the top two in the world - was able to adjust and begin to outbox Manny in the last 4/5 rounds, tells me that Pacquiao is slipping big time.

    Why do you think the clamour for a Mayweather - Pacquiao fight has died down over the past year or so? Because it's become perfectly obvious that Mayweather at this stage would dominate him and make him look like a C class fighter. That fight should have happened in 2009 when Pac Man was ****ing people up. 2010 at the latest.

    So I'd agree, if he loses his next fight, or wins but doesn't look very good, it's time for him to retire. He's going down as an ATG and if he can't add to that legacy anymore then there is no point in him fighting on.

    Sometimes when you have already peaked and have accomplished a lot of stuff, your hunger disappears + motivation...many boxers just milk the$$$ until the end...examples: Holyfield, RJJ, Toney and Hopkins

    I agree he should retire if he has another bad outing... Although I'd love Mayweather to beat him before he retires it's never good to see a champion continually look bad because they don't know when to hang them up.

    Wow!! These are some really harsh conclusions to be drawn from a bull****, gift decision that Bradley was given as a present and that 120 out of 122 sportswriters/trainers who went public with their scores had Pac winning.



    Seriously, are you guys serious? You guys are honestly writing Pac off because of a bull****, gift decision in favor of a boring fighter whom nobody really gives a **** about?

    wow. and now the hunger is lost and he is past prime? bull**** excuses. pac's as prime as he was against dela hoya. except that he has been exposed by timmy and pee mouth successively. that's why! had he drained either of them he would have won impressively too then these threads wouldn't exist.

    fact is, he can't handle movement, he weight drains, and he's running away from money may. period.

    emmanroid *is not* going to retire as soon as November. He'll retire after taking some beatings when he's more shot than a '96 tupac.

    Some guys who retired "on time" are Marciano and Lewis. emmanuel doesn't seem nowhere near as bright as those two. He always has someone in his ear.

    Add in the fact that roach has stated numerous times in the past that emmanuel is balling outta control

    He should have retired after Margarito now all his wars have taken it's toll... Pac is on the decline faster than Floyd jr on a bicycle...

    Some of you guys need to follow another sport, cause clearly some of you are not fans of the sport. I can't believe some of you are this fickle. Go watch ping pong or something.

    Hopkins should retire. Jones should retire. Juarez should retire. Morales should retire. But Pac? Seriously? He beat Bradley as convincingly as Floyd beat Cotto, if not more.

    He barely got hit flush the entire fight, didn't get hurt and sustained no damage, but people want him to retire? He's got plenty left in him and he should continue to fight. He'd ***** slap Bradley again if they get into ring a 2nd time.
