    Yeah, Pac is a shadow of his former self, with only half the punch output. He's still a little bit faster than the guys he's fighting but he's gone from great to very good. He might still beat Thurman and Garcia, but I don't know about Brook and Spence. But that's academic at this point. A year from now, he'll probably drop to the bottom of the top ten and just be good. Then he won't be.

    He's about as good as Shane Mosley was at that age. Remember, that's about where he was when Cotto, May, and Pac beat him. So I can see Spence and Crawford wanting a piece of him now, the young tigers earning their stripes.

    Synopsis: still good enough to earn a title. Probably, no longer capable of defending it against all comers.
