    No reason for him to retire, he looked really good early.

    He shouldn't retire at all, the fight followed it's usual route, except Juan was clearly throwing with a bit more power and definite bad intentions.

    Yeah Bob is still trying to milk him though, he made me sick when he walked over to him at the in-ring press conf.

    A 6th fight he says :-(

    Also (and sadly Im sure ive said this before) the fight with floyd is prob more possible than ever, now Pac has been brutally and decisively beaten, there will be no more ultra-huge paydays for him.........all roads lead to Floyd (and another stoppage)

    :deal

    Really all the way up to the KO. He started getting wild once he had Marquez hurt in the fifth. I didn't expect him to go all out like that. I didn't expect him to give a **** about proving anything to that degree.

    Am I supposed to be surprised? lol. Anyways, yeah Pac looked good and might actually even have won the fight if not for the huge counter right, but a punch that lays you out like that for a good couple minutes can scar a fighter mentally for good. Who knows if Pac can even bounce back from a shot like that?

    He should retire. The dude has so much going for him other than boxing. He doesn't need to turn out like RJJ.

    Arum will finally try to make the Mayweather fight now. Cash out time! No one cares to see it anymore.

    Now that Pac's chin seems dent able, the Rios fight looks like more and more of a possibility.

    Manny changed his game plan and it worked for him. He smelled the blood in the water and his killer instinct took over and he abandoned what got him to that point in the first place. Juan's focus and precision under that kind of assault is pretty mind boggling too. Hard to fathom how much guts these guys have. No sport remotely compares to this.

    He was out cold and lifeless for a solid 2 minutes. Either retire now or have an easy farewell fight in the Philippines. Pacquiao is done. But looks like he'll be the next Roy Jones, Evander Holyfield, or James Toney post greatness. :patsch

    The only way a fight v PBF happens is if they accept what mayweather offers. No chance they would get 50/50 and they dont deserve it.
