Any fighter from past to present, started at 106 could duplicate Pac accomplishments?

Thats not the point. Imagine you are 90 lbs kid fighting full grown 106 men in pro boxing. In amateur Floyd wore helmet when he fought equally young fighters.

I like Pac and am a fan. And everyone knows I can't stand Mayweather. But Floyd was fighting better fighters on a national and international level for the Olympics. Age is also just as relevant as an amateur and headgear is just a bigger target. Most fighters I have known prefer fighting without it.

[QUOTE=mushahadeen;11865934]Floyd was 106 at the same age.

One could argue his accomplishments have been as impressive as Pac's on the whole.

Pac's run is notable for the jump from 20s-30s to WW-JMW.[/QUOTE


Floyd got 6 loses at that age in the amateurs! Pac has 2 as a Pro.

At Pac's age, Floyd was in the same weight class, but in the amateurs.

So yes, if more fighters start skipping the amateurs and fight in their teens. Sure they can.

I do somewhat agree their will be increase of fighters that can achieve it, but still not all young fighters skipping amateurs could do it, case in point a lot of Asian barely pass by amateur stage and need to earn a living by boxing, majority of them ends up just accomplishing that becoming a pro but nowhere near Pac's accomplishment

IMHO only gifted/special fighters can do it, throw names like floyd or golden era fighters I could agree, but generalization i could not ...
