Says "God told him to." What an idiot. Pacquiao says God wants him to retire, vows to stop gambling, womanizing | RingTV
reminds me of the time my Uncle Mick found GOD when he stopped drinking.......hes back on the booze now though!!!
Job Biscuit (Fancy a pint)!!!!
eh eh!!!
How many times did Ray Leonard retire?
he's ran out of places to hide so well it's a natural choice, funny how when he finally has "viable" options he has a out of nowhere message from Freddie...I mean God, he's running from rematches against Cotto and JMM, tough fights against Martinez and Mayweather, or hell any of the top names at 154
Right when he's facing the possibility of going to jail. Nice timing.
He won't retire, Bob Arum won't let him because there's too much money left to be made yet.
Hope this doesn't cut down his heart on the way to June. A half-hearted Pacquiao will not defeat Timothy Bradley.
No biggy, he didn't want to fight floyd anyway.
if he his hearing voices in his head he should retire.
Geeez... shut up, Manny. You're playing right into the hands of Floyd fans everywhere that are looking for any chink in your armour so they can divert attention from "Money's" own many flaws.
I don't care about his flaws, just his near perfect boxing.
I like boxing, not reality TV ;)
I guess that's the point, really. With Floyd in recent years, it's 10% boxing..... 90% reality TV.
;)
I like the top comment underneath the story in Ring.. ;)

For starters, while I sincerely don't intend to offend anyone's religious beliefs here, I can't help but notice that Pac-Man tends to use religious reason when it's convenient to him, yet ignores it when it's not. For instance, Pacquiao has used Roman Catholicism as one of several reasons that he didn't agree to Random Drug Testing, which would be understandable, had he not already taken a blood test against Morales, submitted blood samples several times to the NSAC, and then proceeded to be blood tested for the Clottey fight. Not to mention having tattoos, which, although I admittedly don't have a Catholic Bible on me at the moment, I'm presuming would also defy the fundamental beliefs of virtually every religion, which tells you not to desecrate your flesh.... I also can't help but be amused by the report that God told him it's time to retire, simply because this would imply that not only does Bob Arum clearly not want Mayweather-Pacquiao to ever occur (and Pacquiao himself may not want the fight), but according to the reports, apparently God isn't particularly interested in the bout either and is urging Pac-Man to hang it up... The last laughable part to me is his vow that he's done with gambling and womanizing, not because of the vow itself, but simply because his steadfast loyal followers have denied EVERY negative report about him, and likely would defend him even with the confessions coming out of his own mouth, meanwhile jumping at every chance to bash Mayweather for being a "woman-beater", or a "cheater", or a "tax fraud", or every other nonsensical issue that has NOTHING TO DO WITH BOXING... Neither does Pacquiao's religious beliefs, his gambling and womanizing problems, or any other issue I brought up here... Before anyone misinterprets my point, I'm merely stating the fact that fans have become such blind worshipers that they actually take times out of their days to insult strangers on a message board while defending the actions of another COMPLETE STRANGER, and it's utterly ridiculous. And the double-standards and contradictions people show are beyond belief. They'll crucify one guy for the very same things they'll defend another guy for... And I assure you that if and when Pacquiao and Mayweather ever fight, the winner will not be determined by "who beat their girlfriend", or "who's a gambling womanizer", or "who owes the IRS", or "who's smuggling fugitives", or any other aspect of their personal lives that's NONE OF OUR BUSINESS to begin with. The only aspects of their lives any of us should be concerned with is their professions, which we pay our hard-earned money to be entertained by. I'd just appreciate it a lot more if people stuck to the issues that pertain to boxing in their debates than going back and forth on the misdeeds of Pacquiao and Mayweather...
Ah God told him to, right? Like God told him to screw up his taxes, be a little toe rag and now retire. I love how concerned God is, or is it that Manny talks a lot of shit?
Didn't God also tell Peter Sutcliffe to clean the streets by killing women with a hammer and then stabbing them with a screwdriver.
I take issue with all God bothering types as they are all suffering from delusions of varying degree of maliciousness.
Agreed, but it's not like we don't hear every other week about Pac doing some political shit etc either.Quote:

The less-than-stellar showings in 2011 against Marquez and the faded shadow of Mosley is ample proof that Pacquiao ain't what he used to be.
He's still very good of course, but he's no longer the phenomenal dynamo he was circa 2006-2010.
59 pro fights and 17 years as a pro; he's lasted longer than most.
of course he has, nit picking his opponents since 135 on up and every time he picked a guy who could take his punch or wasn't weight drained he struggledQuote:

Im still waiting for a fighter who beats a God botherer to thank the Devil for his win or even better when someone says I'd like thank Jesus for my win,the other guy defeated says in his interview ,well I was doing just fine, until Jesus butted in".;DQuote:
