    Do you really think Pacquiao woudl stand still like Cotto and let Mayweather jab him without throwing back? There's no way Mayweather would "kill" Pacquiao - a top form Pacquiao would give Mayweather all sorts of problems, why do you think the fight hasn't happened?

    Mayweatehr knows his weaknesses a lot better than his fans do

    and i believe that was like 2 years ago.... he's had an contractual extension w/ Arum which is due to expire in the next year?

    Whatever the case, he's said that multiple times in the past couple years due to his governmental service as a congressman....

    Didn't we heard the same **** during the Clottey fight? And that was a couple of years ago.

    He's fighting Rios next, Arum already set that up.

    That would be worse than Bradley. Rios has no skill fighting somebody who can actually box. Pac picks Rios apart, he takes the worse beating of his life, and gets knocked out unless Pac feels sorry for him.
    But yeah... It probably is Arum's intention, but he's ******ed.

    Pacquiao needs money for his political campaign, next up he will be running for Governor. He wont be retiring anytime soon.

    Boxing is gonna retire Pacquiao, he wont retire from boxing. I can see him getting beat up by B level fighters within a couple of year. I hope he retires on top though. If Floyd wont fight him, take Rios next for one last easy fan friendly fight and go out on that.

    Go out in a fight hes bound to not look his best in? Doubtful.

    Much more likely he will end with Rios. A guy who will make him look sensational. Go out on a big fight and big win.

    Agree with this.
    A Manny loss prob keeps him in the game longer.

    :deal Only fight I see happening after Rios is Floyd in a cash out fight for both boxers.. If that doesn't happen he'll end on a high note with Rios.

    I doubt it. Manny is a heavy spender and was reportly going broke. His payday with JMM is not enough to sustain his lifestyle. He would need to fight at least 2-3 more times.
