    He's been wanting out for while... not sure it would make sense to fight Juan again... especially if he got KOed again.

    Roach says it's not the end, and I'm glad. They should take it slow in a comeback fight, but Manny looked really ****ing good early in the fight. Explosive footwork, lightning lead lefts, sharp and short 3-punch combinations that ended in right hooks. He simply met his kryptonite in bulkier, ballsier form. Had me ****ing nervous.

    Hell no. He's what 33? He got a few more in him.

    for me he should retire now. he has a great career. so it saddens me that he still wants to give it a go after the interview. maybe take a tune-up and fight in the philippines.

    One thing is certain, most fighters who get knocked out cold are never the same again

    Nah, I think he's one of those mentally strong types, he'll be back. Hopefully.

    This was easily as bad a KO as the one he retired Hatton with.

    Pac is great, but this was an embarressing, humiliating knockout from a man who many believe has beaten him 2 or 3 times already. It will take a hell of a lot to redeem himself from this.

    I don't see him beating Marquez, so what's left for him now?

    What's out there for him coming off a KO like that? Even if Marquez opts for Rios. I can't see him deserving of a Bradley match up. He's had 61 fights.

    **** no,hopefully.He looked hungry and was doing well but walked onto a bomb and a half.JMM will always be his nemesis and no shame in losing to him.Avenge Bradley and then number V be made.Good to see Manny give all props to JJM and and unlike the Rickster actually gave an interview.

    i hope not. He looked great in the ring.

    Better than in the 3rd fight. He just got reckless.

    But we seen it before where fighters arent the smae after a ko loss like that.

    So who knows.

    One things for sure. Boxing is a much better place with fighters like Manny and Marquez around so hope they both continue figting.
