Pacquiao Should Retire - Leaving A Hole In Mayweather's Legacy
帕奎奥应该退休，给梅威瑟的遗产留个漏洞

原著Frank Lotierzo  ——THE FIGHT FORUM  翻译：小强帝国

It's a shame that there's so much money on the table, because in a perfect world Manny Pacquiao would fight Timothy Bradley later this year in the hope of erasing the stench from their first bout this past June, then after the fight announce that he's retiring from boxing.
留这么多的钱在桌上是羞耻的，因为在一个完美的世界里，曼尼•帕奎奥将在今年晚些时候和蒂莫西•布拉德利比赛，希望洗刷他们第一场6月比赛留下的恶臭，然后宣布他退出拳击。

Lets face it, Floyd Mayweather 43-0 (26) has won the waiting game. The fight with Pacquiao is two plus years past the sell by date and everything now favors Floyd. That's why it would be great for Pacquiao to help fans remember in years to come that despite his glowing record, the only fight the fans clamored for from Mayweather -- is the one he ducked and dodged when it was a legitimate pick'em Super fight.
我们只好承认，弗洛伊德•梅威瑟43-0(26)已经赢得了这场等待中的游戏。定下与帕奎奥的比赛日期已过去两年多了，所有的一切现在都有利于弗洛伊德。帕奎奥会帮助拳迷记住在未来的岁月中，尽管梅威瑟有着发光的记录，但拳迷对梅威瑟强烈要求的唯一战斗，并且是一场合法的被选择的超级战斗，他却躲避了。这就是为什么说（曼尼退休）是有意义的。

There's no disputing that because of the way Mayweather has promoted and managed himself -- coupled with Pacquiao's less than stellar showing over the last year and a half, Mayweather is the one who can dictate the terms and conditions if they ever get serious about ** the fight. Floyd has a legitimate claim for a slightly larger piece of the purse since he looked terrific in his last fight and Manny officially lost his. Also, Mayweather must be given all due props for being able to maintain his ability to fight at the highest level for over a decade. Not many great fighters can lay claim to that.
这是没有争议的，因为梅威瑟推广和经营自己的方式，加之帕奎奥在过去的一年半时间表现一般，如果他们真的是要促成比赛，梅威瑟是有权决定他的合同条款。弗洛伊德索求略高的比赛分成是合理的，因为上场比赛他看起来棒极了，而曼尼在他最后的比赛中被官方判负。还有，梅威瑟必须得到所有的支持，因为他能够保持最高水平的战斗能力超过十年。没有很多伟大的拳手可以称得上。

On the other hand, Manny has been pulled and drawn away from staying in great shape and has no doubt lost focus on what's most important in a fighters life. Manny has clearly lost that off the chart speed and intensity, not to mention he fights lazy and is more upright when he presses the attack now. He also has to think and process his aggression, something that used to be reactionary and instinctive. And if there's one thing he can't do against Mayweather, if they were to fight, is try to think his way in and process his battle plan mentally as the fight is unfolding.
另一方面，曼尼已从他的巅峰状态下来，并无疑已不能集中精力于拳手生涯中最重要的东西。曼尼显然已失去了战斗速度和强度，更不用提他战斗懒散和攻击时的更加直挺。他还必须得思考和处理他的进攻，这曾经是他的条件反射和本能。如果比赛成行，有一件事他不能做，那就是在备战中，他不能试图从精神层面构思他的战斗计划。

I don't care how big of a Mayweather fan you are; if you can't admit that Mayweather wanted no parts of Pacquiao when he was really on his game, you must be alone living in your perfect world. The fact is Mayweather used every excuse in the book not to fight Pacquiao, and then let fighters like Miguel Cotto and Joshua Clottey take the risk instead. See, Mayweather knew that because of Pacquiao's energetic style, intensity and work rate, that he'd slow down if he could just wait him out. And hopefully to no ones surprise, that is exactly what has happened. Anytime from this point on, despite him being older according to the calender, Mayweather is the fresher and more live fighter. Something that didn't happen by accident.
我不在乎你是梅威瑟多大的粉丝，如果你不能承认梅威瑟不想和帕奎奥比赛，你一定是独自生活在你的完美世界里。事实是梅威瑟使用了他字典中的每一个借口不和帕奎奥比赛，然后让库托和克洛蒂之类的拳手去冒这个风险。想想看，梅威瑟知道，因为帕奎奥的充满活力的风格、强度和工作效率，并且有一天他会慢下来，如果他只需等待这种情况发生。希望没有人吃惊的是，那确实发生了。任何时候从这个观点上看，尽管他年纪变大，梅威瑟可以战斗得更长。一些事情并不是偶然的。

Being that Mayweather is a counter-puncher who has hand picked his opposition for at least the last half of his career, he hasn't endured nearly the same wear and tear on his body as Pacquiao. Add to that Pacquiao was willing to fight bigger fighters when they were still a factor, has taken something out of him.
是，梅威瑟是一个计数器穿孔机，在过去至少一半的他的职业生涯中，他曾亲手挑选对手。他还没有像帕奎奥那样经历了身体的磨损和撕裂。还有，帕奎奥是愿意对抗更大的拳手，当他们还能损害了他身体的时候。

Suppose Mayweather and Pacquiao never fight - it is Mayweather who will be viewed by history as the fighter who didn't want the fight. Similar as to the way Riddick Bowe is viewed as the reason why he and Lennox Lewis never fought in 1993 when the fight was the most talked about match in boxing. Pacquiao is the fighter who is seen by most boxing aficionados as a throw back to a generation when the the top fighters and champions didn't order from the menu and sought to fight the best of the best every time out. Manny is also the smaller guy, yet it was Mayweather the bigger man who introduced excuses like Steroids and HGH use on Pacquiao's part in order to prevent the fight from becoming a reality when the bout was viewed as a pick'em. And it didn't matter one iota that Pacquiao never once failed a drug test.
假设梅威瑟帕奎奥比赛永不发生，将是梅威瑟，他会被历史认定为不想要这场比赛的拳手。类似的，里迪克鲍都被视为是为什么1993年他和莱诺克斯•刘易斯不能比赛的原因，当时这场战斗被谈论的最多。帕奎奥被大多数拳迷认为是退回到上个时代的战士，那时顶级拳手和冠军不会挑选比赛，并追求随时和最好中的最好拳手比赛。曼尼也是较小的家伙。而这场比赛不得不举办的时候，是个头较大的梅威瑟，把指责帕奎奥使用类固醇和人体生长激素当做借口，以阻止比赛举行。不过这并不要紧，帕奎奥丝毫没有一次失败的药物测试。

If Pacquiao walks away after his rematch with Bradley, or whoever he fights next, Mayweather will forever be remembered, and rightly so, for not fighting the boxer who was seen as the biggest threat to his undefeated record who incidentally was smaller than him to boot. Wouldn't that be a kick in the groin to Mayweather? Regardless of how much he pleaded and griped, he'd be more remembered for the fight he didn't take than the 43 he won.
如果帕奎奥在他和布拉德利重赛后离开，或随便他接下来打谁。梅威瑟将永远被记住，理当如此，因为他没有和被看成是他不败纪录最大威胁的拳手比赛，并且还个头比他小。那不会是正好踢中梅威瑟腹股沟吧？不管他怎么辩护和抱怨，比起他的43场胜利，他的不愿参与的比赛将会被记得更牢。

Rocky Marciano retired undefeated at 49-0 (43) and still he's not considered the greatest heavyweight champ in history. Some will highlight how Rocky fought during a pedestrian heavyweight era littered with older former greats like Joe Louis, Ezzard Charles, Jersey Joe Walcott and light heavyweight legend and great Archie Moore. And that is the truth. However, the one thing that can't be said about Rocky is that he ducked or avoided anybody who was out there and viewed as a threat.
洛奇•玛西亚诺不败退休，战绩49-0(43)，他仍然不被认为是历史上最伟大的重量级拳击冠军。有些人会强调洛奇是如何比赛的，在缺乏想象力的那个重量级时代，掺杂着年长的伟大前辈像乔•路易斯,Ezzard查尔斯,泽乔•沃尔科特和轻重量级传奇和伟大的阿奇摩尔。这是事实。然而,有一件事关于洛奇是不能说的，他躲开了那些被视为威胁的人。

Sorry, but that's not the case with Mayweather. The fact is Floyd avoided Paul Williams, Antonio Margarito, Shane Mosley and Miguel Cotto when they were nipping at his heals as welterweights. Instead he waited for Williams to move up in weight as the others knocked each other off as time moved along and they got older. Then some featherweight Super-Nova comes along and all of the sudden he's using HGH/Steroids and is too dangerous to fight. Something that if you believed, you have to reside in another world.
抱歉，但梅威瑟不是这样的情形。事实是弗洛伊德避开了保罗•威廉姆斯、安东尼奥•马加里托、沙恩•莫斯利和库托，当他们在次重量级紧咬他不放的时候。相反，他等待着威廉姆斯提高重量，让别人彼此击败对手，随着时间向前移动，让他们变老。接着，轻量级的超级新星出现，突然，他的使用HGH /类固醇嫌疑和战斗太危险了，这些因素让比赛夭折。如果你相信一些东西，你必须驻留在另一个世界。

Personally, I'd rather Mayweather and Pacquiao never fight. The fight has marinated too long and is no longer compelling to me. How can it be when one fighter is not only the more live fighter and he'll also demand that the other enter the ring in virtual handcuffs.
Sadly, there's way too many millions on the table for Manny to say forget you Floyd. I have more money than I can ever spend, not to mention other interest that will keep me busy after retirement. Oh, and my resume and legacy is more complete than yours. In fact I'll get a default victory over you in the eyes of the fans because everyone who follows boxing that is intellectually honest knows I wanted the fight with you when it really mattered. No, there's simply too much money guaranteed to Manny for him to go that route.
就我个人而言，我宁愿梅威瑟和帕奎奥永不比赛。战斗已经在卤水中泡的太长了,不再是令我感兴趣。
那将会是怎样呢？当一个拳手不仅是为了存活更久，而且他也要和其他拳手真正比赛。
然而不幸的是，太多的数百万美元放在桌子上，曼尼还要说忘记你弗洛伊德。我（曼尼）有花不完的钱，更不用说其他的我退休后很忙的利益。哦,我的简历和遗产是比你更完整。事实上我将获得一个在拳迷眼中的默认的胜利，因为每个理智诚实追随拳击的人，都知道我想要和你比赛。不，只是有太多的钱保证曼尼不让他走这条路。

As Sugar Ray Leonard once said, unfortunately, it'll never happen that way. Manny will in fact eventually meet Floyd on Mayweather's terms and lose, thus giving Floyd the bragging rights he always craved.
It would be nice if, for once, Mayweather outsmarted himself, which would be the case if Pacquiao walked away. And it wouldn't matter what else Mayweather wound up doing in his career. The talk will follow him for the rest of his life.

就像舒格•雷•雷纳德曾说的，不幸的是，它永远不会那样发生。曼尼将实际上最终会满足弗洛伊德的条款并且战败，这样，给弗洛伊德他渴望的炫耀资本。
如果帕奎奥走开了，这一次梅威瑟将聪明过头。如果是这样，那就很好。我不会介意梅威瑟在他的职业生涯中还要做什么。这个话题将跟随他的余生。

细细看了一遍，给他一个漏洞，给你一个遗憾

感觉原作者也很矛盾。

对攻

感觉原作者有些失望、有些赌气、有些无奈
梅帕比赛商业味太浓，相互之间不做让步，实在对不住支持他们的拳迷

闲着没事

梅黑，可惜曼尼不会给他争气的，既不会打布拉德利，也不会退役
