Following Manny Pacquiao's surprise defeat (62-8-2, 39 KOs) at the hands of Yordenis Ugas (27-4, 12 KOs), there is renewed talk about the urgency of ending the 42-year-old Pacman's career. A voice for the future of the legendary Filipino belongs to his trainer Freddie Roach, among others.

"I don't even want to think about the day he says goodbye to boxing, but this could be his last fight. He didn't have a very good performance," the trainer said, commenting on his boxer's loss.

Ugas, who replaced the injured Errol Spence Jr. as Pacquiao's opponent, said that if Pacman wants to return to the ring, he would gladly give him a rematch.

"Two hundred percent! Manny is a great boxer, a legend. If he demands a rematch, he will undoubtedly get it. A legend like that deserves it," said the WBA welterweight champion.
