    Much smaller.

    Much older at almost 43 years of age.

    Came back from an insane KO that no fighter should be able to.

    And 2 years of inactivity.

    well how many others have had the clout to have it like that? its a small club. its what i would expect from a bonafide atg, hes just fitting the profile. still awe inspiring, given his storied career, personal life and current standing. if he wins, men will have to remove their hats when manny walks in a room.

    Absolutely, the man will be nearly 43, taking on arguably the best in the division after a big period of inactivity, if he pulls it off, unbelievable.

    Not quite Jeffries coming back for Johnson but it's definitely up the list of "40+ year olds fighting a top buck."

    Hopkins and Foreman were older than that.

    They weren’t fighting a guy who was really naturally 2 divisions bigger than them on their 10th weight division from their first championship. A guy who is not only considered one of the best in the division but one of the best in the sport outright who is a rival to who many have as p4p 1.

    Duran-Hagler perhaps if Duran was older. Barkley was similar but Barkley was never on this class.

    SRL coming back from a layoff to fight big scary Hagler is also similar.

    Foreman beating Michael Moorer at 45 might be the greatest feat in all of boxing

    Foreman had about 100lbs on Moorer, bigger, taller, had 10 years of rest and Moorer was HW champ but he wasn’t p4p.

    Not comparable to Pac who would almost be 43 and has been fighting for 27 years non-stop and has been brutally ktfo, fighting someone who is considered one of the most dangerous fighters in the sport due to his size and pressure.

    Basically, if Foreman was Moorer age and Moorer 45, Moorer a small 45 year old going up against the big bad young dangerous Foreman who could really hurt him, - that would be more comparable.
