Though no official statement from the camp of Pacman but this news is close to reality as it comes from an individual who is close to Manny and that is no other than his business manager Arnold Vegafria.
Many fight fans might be disappointed with this breaking news but this might be the one healthy fight for the Pacman himself as he is not force to bring the best Manny Pacquaio in this fight if push though.
Pacquiao vs Garcia in Dubai, says Vegafria
https://www.rappler.com/sports/boxing/vegafria-says-pacquiao-mikey-garcia-fight-dubaiI don't think it would be healthy for him now, since Manny isn't that focus compared from his last previous successful fights. The situation of Pacman these days has been divided, because of his political career due to his rumoured future Presidential candidacy which is now become controversial for several netizens who've been following his entire life.
Hopefully this would got good results and doesn't affect his incoming fights despite the fact of pressures behind him.
Well if we go on your argument, then Manny wouldn't have focus on his boxing career since he enter politics. And yet we still saw him winning against the young Thurman. So I don't think that Manny is divided up to this point.
If he goes boxing, then he is 100% focus, we can still see the old Manny trying like he even doesn't age. So after his fight, goes back to his desk job as the fighting Senator of the Philippines. And we really admire how Manny develops, from his obscure beginning to now a Senator or possibly the next President of the Philippines.
