    I'm not even a big fan. But he's had a great career yet continues to fight against the top young champions. Win or lose that is something to be admired. Just like Hopkins competing against the likes of Calzaghe, Kovalev, and Dawson well into his 40s.

                One Pac fan, Spoony G, would rather have a discussion about what an old timer has to say in his YT video (presumably about May fans. I couldn't tell because the 1st 3min was him whining).

                I asked Spoony about Pac's career and he deflected.

                  He should be getting respect for taking a Spence fight. I give Hopkins lots of respect for fighting Kovalev, but does he move up in the ATG list for the fight? No, that dude lost every round badly. When the same inevitably happens to Pac, he shouldn't be elevated for losing empathetically.

                  Considering that Floyd is Pac's biggest rival, of course it would've made Pac great(er) had he beat him. Doesn't mean Pac's resume isn't great in its own right, but he's just not better than Flody.

                    Don't be so salty now Floyd got full credit for beating the Japanese kickboxer in his hometown.

                      But when Pac eventually does the same after he retires it’ll be cool, right?
