Retirement rubbish, Pacquiao won’t leave 50-100 million on table

LOS ANGELES–If you’re buying this ?last chance to see Manny Pacquiao? pitch as to the Nov. 13 bout against Antonio Margarito then you’re the greater fool that the pitchmen are targeting.

They will do anything, by necessity, to get you to pay your way into Jerry Jones humungous tent in Arlington, Texas, or to click your clicker to buy the PPV telecast.

Common sense, a phrase Pacman seems to use often now, tells us that no athlete who is about to turn age 32 quits his sport for good when he is at the top of the heap, artistically and financially.

Not when he’s guaranteed about $12 million per fight even against a pedestrian opponent such as the morally challenged Margarito.

Not when he has not reached his boxing zenith.
