Manny Pacquiao has confirmed that he's retired from boxing at the age of 42
- Thread starter Gemini
- Start date
I'm surprised Pacquiao would take this fight, great opportunity for Spence to get a legend on his resume and probably his biggest check to date.
As long as he doesn't fuck it up.

One last cash out for Pacquiao.
It’s sad that Crawford and Errol ain’t dancing.

Fucking waste of time. Crawford signed with the wrong management team
Pacquiao wouldn't have fought him anyway IMO.
I think he and his team may feel that Spence is a calculated risk since he was in the accident and hasn't been as active as he would have been normally.
Maybe they feel he's not back to where he was before the accident
I expect Errol to win.

I meant that Crawford's management couldn't get the Spence deal done. They have wasted Crawford's best earning years. This fight with Pacquiao is fucking ridiculous for either of these men in their primes. Absolute travesty for boxing, but shit if folks will pay, get your money Spence. I sure as hell won't watch it.
Crawford simply has the worst management team in sports and he was retarded to resign with top rank four years ago. He had the fight with Manny Pacquiao and they say he didn't sign the contract. Bob literally said he didn't approve the fight because he was worried about Pacquiao's health. WTF your fighter needs fights. Now Errol Spence gets to retire Manny Pacquiao.
Not really a travesty since Pacquiao beat Thurman and got his belt although I think Pacquiao lost it due to inactivity recently...anyways as long as they force VADA testing I am good with the fight....I still maintain Pacquiao was looking suspiciously energetic in the first half of that fight with Keith
No one in their right mind watched Spence's fight with Garcia and thought, yep, Spence is ready to be taken.Pacquiao wouldn't have fought him anyway IMO.

Worst loss than the third Marquez fight, Pacquiao either gets badly ko'd or corner throws in the towel.
I'm not seeing it. Spence is basically a robot. Pac deals with robots pretty easily.
If Manny pulls this off, he surpasses Floyd in my eyes.
I never thought I’d ever say that but it’s true.
This is all-time shit he’s flirting with.
Beating niggas half his age with Thurman and AB.
While Floyd is fighting YouTube stars.
I’m damn near pulling for him.
Simply because he’s old school and these new age fighters are comfortable not taking risks.
There’s no reason why Manny should still be relevant in 2021.
But blame these new cats for not fighting each other.
Manny cashing out 
Crawford has no one to blame but himself. He saw all the weak ass 147s at Top Rank yet still resigned with them. If dude really wants Spence or any other top fighters he better do whatever to get outta that contract with TR. He just getting hyped and wasting away right now.

Pac is past his prime
I would rather see Crawford but that's boxing.....

Hahahaha, that's a JOKE right? smdh...you dudes
He's old, punch drunk and just looking for a payday
FYI - Marquez was a "Robot"
Jeff Horn was a "SCRUB Robot"
He has success with boxers who take unnecessary RISKS easily

He is broke and desperate. The thing Spence should do is insist
that there be random drug tests in the progression to the fight.
I would have loved to see Pacquiao against Tank Davis. I know
that Pacquiao might have problems going down to 135, but is
a fight possible at 140?
Spence ducks no one. Pacquiao is more lucrative for either
Crawford or Spence than fighting each other. It is about
making as much money as quickly as you can
Floyd is 44, and retired. He is fighting Youtubers because some fool
is willing to give him $23 million for an exhibition match. Floyd has
no interest in returning to a serious fight. He will be the first one to
tell you that it is not advisable for his brain health.
Pacquiao will never surpass Floyd. Pacquiao has been knocked out
4 times. Floyd has never been down to the canvas due to another
man's punch, much less defeated. Floyd is an all time great; the
consumate boxer. Floyd is to boxing what Steph Curry is to shooting
the basketball. Both are the products of fathers who were themselves
mediocre at their respective sports, but invested all their knowledge
in their sons.
Pacquiao achieved his best performances on juice. When Juan Manuel
Marquez forced him off all the shit he was taking, Pacquiao was never
the same.
