    Pacquiaos but he was still inactive. My point still stands. 2019 and before Pacquiao would beat any version of Ugas. Even if 2019 Pacquiao wouldn't win then prime Pac demolishes Ugas regardless

    Totally irrelevant they fought when they fought the rest is all noise. That’s your opinion that had they fought earlier Pacquiao would have won. Maybe you are right but I don’t think it’s necessarily a fore gone conclusion.

    Just like Berbick beat Ali so prime Ali vs prime Berbick is irrelevant LOL. I take nothing away from Ugas but prime Pacquiao would destroy him. The fact that a lead footed 42 year old physically diminished Pacquiao took 4 rounds off Ugas and gave him a decently competitive fight says it all.

    Ali had parkinsons during his fights with Holmes and Berbick, he couldn`t even punch a speedbag before his fight v Holmes.

    I think you are spinning a bit because beforehand the expectation of the majority was Pacquiao would do a demolition job on Ugas and some wanted to call him the GOAT.

    That is true but now we have observational evidence. A slow footed, physically diminished, 2 year inactive 42 year old in pacquiao took 4 rounds off Ugas. From a lot of your posts i can tell you don't consider how much father time can affect a fighter. The fact is Spence was a significant favorite over Pacquiao and this was part of the reason why. But Prime Pacquiao beats both. I won't call it a forgone conclusion but based on evidence it would not be a competitive fight.

    And? Pea wasnt a big lightweight anyway and he beat him cause of his skills not cause of weight. Theres levels to this and Whitaker was several levels above Nelson as a fighter.

    LOL you mean the Spence that was pushed to his limit against Shawn Porter ? Ok. Pacquiao put Thurman in check at age 40. Prime Pacquiao was a monster, Spence is not
