Is Pacquiao's ring age truly more than Mayweather's?

Note: I'm a statistic guy so I love this stuff.

I see this a lot, some say that despite Pac's age, he has more ring age than Mayweather. But let's break this down a little bit. Pulled from BoxRec:

Manny Pacquiao

Here's some interesting points.

• Pacquiao has been in 17 more fights
• Pacquiao has boxed only 44 more rounds than Floyd
• 44 rounds is equal to 3.91 fights so, by rounds boxed, he's had only about 4 more fights than Floyd
• Pacquiao is 2 years younger than Floyd, at Pac's average fighting rate, he'd have 4 fights in 2 years.
• By rounds boxed, assuming they're all championship fights, Pacquiao (36) has 34 fights, Mayweather (38) has 30 fights.

So my question is this: Does Pacquiao's 2 year age advantage negate the ring age he has over Mayweather?

For the record, IMO, I believe they are both roughly equally passed prime and on even terms. I also believe, that whether the fight happened in 2009, 2015, or 2021, the result would be the same.

Pac has a handful of fights like that, most of his fights he's dominating. He hasn't been in a war since Marquez, and before that? Most of Pac's fights are a one sided beat down

 

It's just to put things into perspective and incite debate and conversation, calm down. Why are you so angry?

 

I did take into account the training but didn't include it. If that's the case, should we include amateur background? :think

 

No doubt Floyd has the edge, but I don't believe that Pacquiao is shot or that Pacquiao is much more passed it than Floyd. No doubt Floyd is fresher, but I don't believe it's a difference maker in this fight.

 

:huh

It's a yes or no question, I'm not making an argument to say Pacquiao is prime or they are equal.
