Summary Pacquiao may contemplate retirement if he fails to perform well in his bout against Brandon Rios.
BANGKOK (AP) - Manny Pacquiao s trainer says the Filipino boxer may contemplate retirement if he fails to perform well in his upcoming bout against Brandon Rios.
Fredy Roach says if the Rios fight "does not go well, we will seriously talk about his retirement," but that Pacquiao was training as well as ever for the Nov. 24 bout in Macau.
Pacquiao faces Rios following successive losses to Timothy Bradley in a much-criticized judges decision and then a stunning knockout against Juan Manuel Marquez.
He has been preparing in the southern city of General Santos City, which was not affected by the typhoon that hit the east coast of the Philippines last Friday.
