MANILA, Philippines -- Boxing superstar and Sarangi Rep. Manny Pacquiao is considering retiring from boxing next year.

Pacquiao said his upcoming bout with undefeated American boxer Timothy Bradley Jr. on June 9 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas may be his last fight.

This also means that his much-awaited dream fight with American Floyd Mayweather Jr. may never happen.

Pacquiao explained it may not look good to be seen fighting in the boxing ring now that he has accepted the Church's offer to become a Bible ambassador.

He said he may just focus on his political plans and reading the Bible.

Last month, Pacquiao disclosed during a one-on-one interview with Dyan Castillejo that he has renewed his faith and has turned his back on vices, including womanizing, ******** and drinking.

He has reach the pinnacle of boxing and has had a long and great career. Nothing left in boxing for him to achieve.

Fight Bradley, rematch Marquez and call it a day

There will be NO Pac vs May fight after Cotto takes that 0 away, I'm telling you get prepared for it, biggest win in PR history. Floyd will go to jail and not be the same, retire after that maybe. All the stars are aligning for that -- Pac even retiring? That's crazy! That fight was never meant to happen, Cotto and PLD will not let this opportunity pass up, it's his time.

The stars will not be aligned in May.

I look forward to some sweet body shots from Cotto... However at the end of the day, Mayweather will win and he will look good doing it. Doing it to the point that people will say it was not even fair and that Cotto should have retired years ago etc...

Nobody from 140-154 beats Mayweather and no matter who Floyd steps in the ring with, he would be the betting favorite to win.

Floyd needs to move up to MW in order for the stars to align perfect.

If Pac losses to Bradley, look for a rematch next year, by November 2013, Manny regains his pound for pound status, shared with Floyd. and he announces his retirement saying "we waited around for so long to fight Mayweather but he doesnt want us."
