    Yep, after beating Manny he'll ride off into the sunset.

    I thought Roy was smart enough to retire on top or close to it. But I guess he had something to prove after being KO'd and now has so many losses on his record. Pride and fighting instinct gets in the way.

    I think Pacquiao represents a serious threat but I don't see any other 147 fighter being that kind of threat. It'll be interesting to see how he comes back from a defeat though since the greatest fighters have all had to come back from a loss or two.

    If he fights Matthew Hatton, rematches JMM, then fights the winner of Margarito -Cotto II, then he can retire undefeated and the *****S won't know the difference!

    I say no the dude blows through money like a crack *****, hes bound to be in the ring when he gets older for another payday and he will probably lose

    Pacquiao could beat him. If he doesn't fight Pac there aren't any other real challenges for him at 147. I don't believe he will ever fight Martinez or Paul Williams at 154 or above. So I can see him retiring undefeated, yes.

    Unofficially he's already lost once as anyone who witnessed Mayweather - Castillo I can attest to. Pacquiao's probably the only one capable of inflicting an official defeat on Mayweather (below 154) but whether it will happen or not is another story and I favor Mayweather in that match up anyway.

    Yeah, I did too. He even talked about it several times, about how he wasn't going to be that kind of fighter. :patsch
