    Saying one can make 135 and actually making the weight EFFECTIVELY (which you missed), are two different things. Yeah, and EQ test would be great.... :rolleyes:

    Which, again, Pac, his promoters, his trainers, his S&C coach, his previous opponents and their coaches and teams, boxing analysts, his childhood friend, his wife, his priest, his Senate coworkers, his basketball team players, his dog, that guy who changed his bedsheets in a hotel once and pretty much everybody who knows Pac is saying that he can do.
    Explain the part to us again where you think you know better than all these people?
    Have you ever even stood next to Pac? I did. A couple of times. That frame, let alone that height (he is 5'5" at best and definitely not 5'7" as the books say since I always look taller to him in our photos together and I am a short 5'6") can definitely make 135 easily. EASY.

    Let me guess, you also think Pac did A-side meth based on internet photos of his head?

    Here, make your parents and ESB proud. Remember, knowing you have a problem is the first step:

    From the man himself. Zero hesitation. Even looks excited about the match up.

    Would prefer any of these three:

    Mikey Garcia
    Danny Garcia
    Terrence Crawford

    Can toss Spence in if/when he returns.

    Father Time!

    Apart from him, he will probably be fighting one or both of the Garcias

    Mayweather embarrassed him.

    Marquez demolished him

    I cant stand Danny but he probably does the same. Everyone on the list does, except for..

    Tell him to go fight McGregor and call it a day.

    How about calling it a career. He's in is 40's over 50 fights and he's not exactly a defensive master. There is life after boxing.

    Are you really complaining because Loma isn’t calling out a 40 year old fighter, two classes above him? If Loma was fighting scrubs, I’d probably be right with you but he’s fighting to unify LW. Manny says a lot of **** but in reality is that he hasn’t fought at 135 in a very long time and it’s doubtful he could make the weight. If he wants to try, I’m certain Loma would fight him if Manny was mandatory.

    It’s funny, I am pretty sure the same guys slagging Loma for not trying to make the Manny fight happen are the same ones who would give Loma no credit for beating an older “drained” version of a Manny. If he beats Manny at 135, the next line will be “but can he beat him at WW?”.

    Stop being a child and just enjoy the remainder of Manny’s career. He doesn’t have many fights left and there are lots of good opponents at 147, a weight we know he can fight at and be competitive.

    KO Danny, have a cashout fight with McGregor or Mayweather, then call it a career. He owes nothing to no one, has nothing to prove to anyone. At a minimum, he's on everyone's list of top 25 greatest boxers who ever lived, and until his 8 (7 if you must be a killjoy grumpas and insist the super-welterweight title was illegitimate) weight-division conquest is matched or surpassed, that is not likely to change any time soon, if at all.

    I'd love for him to get it on with Spence and Crawford, but Crawford is really, really good, and Spence is a big ole' boy who can and probably one day will make middleweight. Young 20's/Early 30's Manny would pulverize them. Hell 35 Manny would probably outpoint them. 40+ Manny? Maybe, maybe not, but the uncertainty makes me nervous.

    Right, that's why he just fought the guy with the best resume in the welterweight division besides himself.
