I cant believe nobody questioned this? It makes sense now why he was looking better than most older fighters he is two years younger than his list age. He lied about his weight he cheated on the scales and put weights in his pockets he only weighed 98 pounds when he fought. The man lied about his age too, if you recall the philippine little league team was banned from the sport in the 90s for lying about their age they put older players in and said they were 13 when they were actually 16 and 17 years old. Even in the dominican republic they believe albert pujols is actually 44 years old not 41.
Those two years make all the difference, he would have been 38 when he fought Thurman, now he is 40 and will get washed, also to you guys saying show proof, you think Pac will actaully show proof just remember he lied on his weight and age to box, I think he said he was 16 but that would mean he was likely 14 when he turned pro
bruh!!!!!! you think pac could have been fighting pro in the US with fake documents!! geezuz man!!
on boxingscene, pac is the only guy that can get away with juicing and lying about his age without getting caught!! lol..
There is nothing different from a 40 year old fighter and a 42 year old fighter.

A “15 year old” baseball player who is smacking the ball all over the place attracts more eyes than an 18 year old baseball player who is doing the same. The one’s to blame is really the system itself. Scouts, managers, agents, teams, value younger players because younger players means they’re going to “last longer”. An 18 year old kid still has a chance, he just has a way better chance if he says he’s 15.
“Oh damn, he is only 15 and so good already at a young age. We want this one!”
Athletes from second world countries lie about their age because they are told to by the people
handling them. It all comes down to more opportunities and money. It happens quite often. Some athletes get caught, some athletes take it to their grave. But honestly they’re too young to even know what they’re getting themselves into. Yes they know they’re lying, but they don’t know any better. They have their managers/scouts/etc telling them to do it or else they won’t make it.
It is very, very common. There could be zero proof of it. The athlete would likely need to get snitched on by someone who knows them.

Right. And he’s a slugger it’s not like he’s a slick out fighter trying to avoid damage. He’s every bit of his age at this stage in the game.
He's right, I watched a video with Manny over the weekend and he talked about being underweight for minimum weight and lied about his age to fight. True story.
Post the link to the video.
Of course it makes a difference. The big decline most of the time starts at 37-38 when old man stamina settles in, then it starts to go downhill fast.
40 or 42 is a big difference.
the bolded....
so it makes no difference then.. pac aint 37-38 like you mention.. so since pac is actually 40 and not 42, he has already pass the declining stage "37-38"... which is why i said 40 or 42 makes no difference since he's already over the hill.

You have no legitimate evidence so just stop with the bullsh** man. :lol1:
Bro he said he lied on his age, a lot of third world countries the players will lie on their age, some say Rigondeuax is older than his age too.
Where? post it.
