    No, I say that based on the whole of his achievements. Did you not read my article?

    Pacquiao loses to Spence and Crawford.

    Pacquiao beats Porter, Garcia (Legohead and Sin City Mikey), and Thurman (dude couldn't put away ancient Bundu and was almost KO'd on a body shot by Shotlazo).

    Yup.. totally. Because I think an aged, long in the tooth 40 year old Pac, who hasnt beaten a high level opponent for years now, cant beat the current best welters that are in their primes (one of which toyed with their common opponent, the same opponent that Pac struggled with), is exactly the same as picking against him his whole career.

    Youre an absolute genius. I stand corrected. Thank you for your insights.

    Now you're being a tool. That reference carries a lot of BS with it and is highly polarizing. High level opponent? Who would that be with current welters? They're all hyped to hell, can barely face each other. All the current welters are questionable with the amount cans they face. They are not proven with many holes in their resumes.

    Apart from being Only 8 Div Champ ;
    - Rags to Riches to Total Humanitarian
    - Nobody to Congressman to Senator
    - Nothing/Selling Ice water to make a living, to establishing Charitable Orgs
    - Playing Basketball barefooted to having own team and Nike endorsement
    List goes on...
    Above all, still a Humble person

    Not easily and perhaps not even, and only because he is 40.
    In his prime he can beat both of them to pulp in the same evening...

    I know where your'e coming from. I'm not saying Pac can't hang with these guys -- he can. I'm just saying that there's one opponent that remains undefeated... and his name is OLD MAN TIME! It's not complicated. If and when he retires, I just want it to be with dignity, and with his senses intact.

    Well that's obvious but fights aren't won on achievements.
