Do you think it's time for Manny Pacquiao to retire from boxing? email this discussion to a friend?

After that impressive win against "the Hitman" (I'm always getting hit, man) Hatton there are no more doubts that Pacquiao is THE best pound for pound fighter in the world.

Pacuiao definitely has nothing left to prove. he doesn't have to fight for money anymore.

I defintely want to see more of Pacquiao I want to see him blast a hundred more fighters but from his point of view do you think it would be wise for Manny to retire while he is on top of his game.

Like I said with regards to achievements I don't think there's anything left for Manny to strive for in boxing and he clearly has more interests.

How many of you think it's time for him to retire so he can pursue those other interests?

He is at his prime right now and it is really sad to see him retired in his career. I do think that he is going to his older age but I think his strength is really really good at this time that he can afford another fight since he was not badly damage by his recent fight.

But I think, Manny is already considering that option at bay. He is in fact preparing himself for political career as he is rumored to run for Congress in Sarangani Province. I just hope that with this decision he is doing a right decision. He may proved to be a good fighter on the ring but I really do not know how he will be in Congress.

Hope Manny will go on fighting while he is in his prime. Perhaps another fight for this year and will retire in a year or two. But I really do not recommend him to join politics. He can help the people in so many ways but not in politics. Politics is so dirty in our country. His aim to join the politics is to help people. He can help us in so many ways but not in politics.

I don't think it's time for Manny Pacquiao to retire. Not at this moment when he is at his prime and the most bankable boxer today. Doing that might disappoint a lot of people but for him personally, i think it depends on how he feels. I don't think he would retire. Not this year at least. It's not yet campaign time for politicians so i don't think he would. He may want to earn more for his campaign. Makes sense right?

I would suggest that Pacman retire now. I think it's not a matter of proving what he can achieve but for him to enjoy the fruit of his labor. He can have all the time and all the money needed for his family and i believe for generations more to come if he will be wise. But if he retires from boxing i'm praying as well that he won't take politics as his next arena. He will surely be knocked out if he will take a plunge into it.

I think that I would like to see Manny fight Mayweather first before he retires. And if he beats Mayweather, then there's really no doubt, that Manny Pacquiao is the best and #1 Pound for Pound boxer in the world. Then he can retire and live happily with his family, wife and kids. That's only my opinion though. happy earning!

Retiring while you are on top of your game is really the best option. However, with what he showed during his fight with Hatton, many analysts are saying he is actually at his prime as a boxer now and he can do more. He can still fight and there's but a slim chance that he'll lose. If that's the assessment about Manny's capacity is realistic, I think he should still do a fight or two before eventually retiring.

I think Manny Pacquiao is more determine to find the much stronger fighter.. Someone that Manny could sweat on.. And I don't think for now would be the right time.. He's still young and can do much of fight in the few more years.. He gives so much excitement and happiness to the Filipinos for every fight he has... I'm not an avid fun of him nor the boxing sports, but we must admit, he has really strong impact to most Filipinos to unite for a day.. And that's really something.. I hope others not only Manny can do something what he does... It's just a good thing to know people unite... happy

i think manny pacquiao should fight two or three more fights. i mean he is at the peak of his career right now and it'll be a shame if he hang his gloves right now and retire. i think he's going to fight the winner of the mayweather-juan manuel marquez fight. i know mayweather will go through juan manuel marquez so a mayweather-pacquiao is possible and hopefully they sort things out and get the fight on. i'd also like to see pacquiao go up agaisnt juan manuel marquez again sicne i think among the mexican boxers that pacquiao faced, juan manuel marquez gave the best effort and really pushed pacquiao to the distance. a fight with miguel cotto is also good since cotto is also a great boxer and i think pacquiao and him can light up the boxing ring, just not so sure if this fight will bring it the money from fans. economics is always a factor to be considered in fights like this.

just my thoughts!!!

cheers!!!

I am a huge fan of Pacquiao and i don't think it's time for him ro retire from boxing. he's too young to retire, he hasn't found his match yet. i think he can still find ones that he can really sweat on like Mayweather. i can't wait to see the pacquiao-mayweather fight. i am sure it would be a big one. mayweather seeems to be a tough fighter and i wanted to see the real action between two great fighters. go manny!
