I never seen or heard the church advising Manny to retire but definitely her mom demand a re-match.

To which advice Pacquiao should listen?

I guess the only person Manny should listen in his own conscience, not her mom or the church or the government or the people in his own camp or trainer. Who is fighting in the ring? Is it her mom or the church or the government or the trainer or the people in his entourage? No. At the end of the day, Manny is still lingering the thought of retiring someday soon or much sooner than we expected. We just have to wait for his announcement.

Manny is the very person who can answer this question with strong conviction not us or the church or her own mother. Like all boxing expert would say, every boxer has to retire. Whether he likes it or not or we like it or not. Boxers have more wear and tear compare to us who are not boxers. After their retirement is when they realized there is already something wrong with his liver or his skull or his body etc. Right now Manny do not feel anything unusual because he is still in his peak of things but we all be succumb with time. Time is our worst enemy. Manny is not definitely growing young each and every day but growing older and slower as the time goes on.

For me, I think it is time to hang those gloves after the November fight between him and Bradley. After he give it all and win over Bradley TKO. His gloves that he personally use here could be sold for 1.5 million dollars. Enough to feed his entire constituent back home in Sarangani province in Mindanao Philippines. So you see win or loose Manny is still the winner here.

Manny's mother does not have the right to demand anything. all she can do as a mother is advise Manny on what to do. Manny is not a child anymore, He is a mature adult and Congressman. That should give him the right to make up his own mind on what to do. His devotion should be to his wife and children and nothing else. Not even the Catholic church, Bob Arum or Freddie Cockroach

I trust each little thing you suggested. i've got in basic terms seen one or perhaps 2 human beings doing it, and no count if or no longer they are Floyd followers or no longer i do no longer understand, yet i think of they are in simple terms attempting to troll and piss Pacquiao followers off, because of the fact they are incredibly undemanding to annoy. the two way, it relatively is previous pathetic. no count what question is asked, there is often some sort of racist answer. You get human beings accusing Sean G and Jose Martinez of having different money owed, and adult adult males like Fred C who in simple terms continuously use racial slurs. The combat itself isn't even happening, so what precisely is the factor of scuffling with over it? while actual followers can communicate with regards to the combat in a civilized way, then it incredibly is totally superb. yet while the trolls come into the equations, they are an entire buzz kill.

in the fields battling between the fittest and the finest
the champion will always be forced to accept a challenge unless he is aged or disabled and not qualified.
in this case, I think MP and associates would be the ones needing to pay more for a rematch

Whatever he decides to do, he should not make it public. He found out how the press can twist things around just for the sake of selling a story. He should be careful of the public statements he makes, especially in English. His English is not that well polished that he can speak without thinking. People will bait him just for a story.
So, to Manny, "keep it to yourself and if you have to speak, do it in Tagalog and think before you speak".
