    Pac vs Chad Mendez or Aldo....

    Pac would be napping. At this point he is too old to really pick up any true MMA grappling skills.
    Even the smaller guys. Mighty Mouse would mess him up imo

      Post of the year right here.

        Dana White would love that idea so he can put Pac in the octagon with a below average fighter that would finish Pac's ass in less than 30 seconds. From Dana's perspective he would use Pac in an attempt to prove to the world that MMA is "superior". Only delusional Pac fanatics would think Pac could go to MMA and have success. We are talking about two different sports here.

          I can't imagine he or most other boxers would do well.

          The only boxer that I think could've done well is Vitali but that's only because he was a kick boxer for many years.

            UFC isnt elite. Anderson Silva training next to Manny Pac.... Silva would look like a lazy ass. They are trained to last 3 rounds.... Boxers stamina is above all else. Even Chuck Liddel had hand speed probably slower than the slowest form of a post-prime Morales. Im telling you.... Speed advantage goes to boxer, stamina goes to boxer, power punching goes to boxer.

            There is a reason people have died in this sport more than any other fighting sport.

                Pac use to do Muay Thai right?

                I mean he has the speed and power to beat some MMA guys I am sure, but ground game and grappling are serious things.

                It'slike a Martial Artist in Karate would never beat a professional boxer size for size. One is a professionally trained fighter that is athletic and can take shots.

                Same with a boxer going to MMA, it's a serious sport.
