    I read somewhere that theres only been a handful of champions league 40 and older?

    Anyone know what the official number is and who they were? Foreman and Hopkins are the obvious ones.

    JMM? Vitali? Cant believe I cant recall this. Im slippin.

    I think it's time for Pac to call it a day.

    His left eye is injured again (scratched retina) like what happened in his previous fights.

    We don't want this ATG to go blind, do we?

    He's already a living legend and this legend should only be fighting his co-legends/ATGs at this point or finally hang them up.

    Pacman had the right opponent in front of him. An inactive, and unfocused Thurman. Pac looked real good to me through about four or five rounds, then noticeably lost something, as far as pep in his step and energy. He should stay well away from Spence, or Crawford. I know I wasn't the only person to notice that there were rounds in the second half of the fight where Pac ate several flush shots and looked a bit punchy. I didn't like his reactions to being hit at all. Thurman with his low ring IQ, and skittishness wasn't seeing it.

    I'll add that this is clearly not the Thurman from the Porter or Garcia fights.
