    All opponents of PAC that he beat are bums, shot, past prime, weight drained, coming off a loss, etc. PAC needs peds to even beat them.

    You would think there shouldn't be. And that 27 is prime age. But There have been. In this sport and others.

    Quick example: Freddie Roach was past his best by that age. Retired actually.

    He might of been but you shouldnt use age as a barometer for being prime. Look at Vargas.

    The number of fights and kind of fights is what counts, **** age.

    i thought barrera was top 5 p4p at the time of this win and manny was big underdog going in......? anyone who ranks it as not a good win is allowing their hatred for manny to sully their judgement.

    MAB was still prime and was ranked high P4P... Pac was upcoming and quite green at the time. He was a surprise.

    No.

    MAB was past his prime, but a far cry from being shot, IMO.
