    Not that I wholly disagree but in what world was Pac prime vs Mayweather? Granted, both were just shells of their former selfs but still...

    Youre an absolute idiot if you believe FlIVd faced a prime Pac.

    Hearns -his skill, reach and power are too much for Manny to overcome.
    Leonard - I lean toward Leonard but a prime Manny is a tough fight for Sugar. I say its a toss up.
    Duran - Duran had trouble with Leonards speed and movement. I think Manny wins
    Hagler- Hagler was a tank at 160lbs. He probably stops Manny.

    Paco has had an unusually dare I say suspect long prime.

    There are different stages in a fighters fighting life span.

    Green/Prospect, prime, peak, past his peak but still prime, and shot/past prime.

    Its called the an agenda. He hates Pac cause he beat so many of his Mexican fighter (JMM, Barrera, Morales, DLH, Diaz, Margarito, etc). So of course he is going to say a 37 year old Pac was prime when he lost to Mayweather.

    Neither guy were prime but Floyd was clearly less shop worn than a Pac that had been in some very tough fights.

    As for the Fab four. I say they all beat him. The size advantage and all being great boxer would be to much for a smaller Pac to overcome.

    Hate to be rude but look what you've made me do. Go play in traffic if you think Pac has any chance against any of the fab four.

    How is pac more shopworn when pbf was older and retired years ago and pac is still fighting and winning. What kind of sense does that make?

    The fighting style between the two. Floyd has never been in a fight where he took a beating where as Pac has. Pac has gotten hit way to much because of his fighting style and style that also diminishes as a boxer age. He was also never the same after the JMM brutal KO.

    A Floyd that didn't take physical punishment when he fought and retired cause he had no motivation is the less worn fighter of the two in my opinion. If you don't think so then thats your opinion. I stated my reason and stand by it.

    All of them were bigger and hit harder than Pac. The Fab 4 will beat Pac by way of K.O. Hearns and Hagler who are a lot bigger than Pac will stop him in the first 4 rounds.

    If Juan Manuel Marquez is Manny's father...then you better starting filing the paperwork because there will be a custody battle on our hands.

    Spence and Porter are nowhere near the level of the fab four at all.
