If he had won the fight, which actually he did, there wouldn't have been anyone else left to fight besides Mayweather.
I say

MANNY MUST RETIRE NOW THEN UNRETIRE IF MAYWEATHER IS READY TO FIGHT HIM.

Pacquiao can retire and just enjoy life with his family.

Actually this loss is a blessing-in-disguise to Manny. If he retires now, then his legacy will be intact. Unlike Oscar de la Hoya or Ricky Hatton who lost brutally prior to retirement, Manny was never truly beaten by another fighter, with his last fight being a grossly controversial loss/robbery. He will sail into the sunset unscathed.

If he is truly now a God-fearing man, retire now and get out of this corrupt business. Make a statement. That it's not just all about money. If he stays, what is he staying for? Money. Show that he is now bigger than all of this. Unless it is a Mayweather fight. And go ahead and just give Floyd what he wants. And beat him. Pac is already filthy rich and set for life, for generations. Beat Floyd because the fans want him to. Not only because he is going to still make a ton of money (anyway). And by doing so he will be more a legend than he is now. Bigger than any fighter who laced gloves.

I am waiting for "Arum is a genius" thread. Just because it will mean more money for all directly involved. Then people also complain that boxing is dying.

Whether he actually won or lost against Bradley is not the point that Team Pacquiao should consider. It's just that for the past few fights, we didn't get to see the vintage Pacquiao.

It's quite clear that Pacquiao is past his prime, like it or not, so before somebody (like Saul Alvarez, Victor Ortiz, and of course, Floyd Mayweather) actually knocks out Pacquiao and damage his hard-earned legacy, it's best to retire now.

Before this fight, I knew that Pacquiao may have found his match in Bradley (that's why you rarely see me comment in the Pacquiao vs. Bradley forum), and may have slipped just enough for Bradley to take the decision. And look what happened.
