      No. He will still be ATG. Look at RJJ - still fighting and getting KTFO by bums but still considered an ATG.

          Can't ruin a legacy after it's already been cemented. Unless a fighter has been retroactively proven to use plaster of paris[which we know pacquiao hasen't].

            RJJ has definitely hurt his legacy by fighting too long. If he retired after Ruiz or even the first Tarver fight he'd be way higher on peoples ATG lists.

              No, this is just measuring how shot Pacquiao is. Most ATG fighters at 39 would get knocked out in these type of fights.

                He's 38 can't erase his entire prime! Still one of the best ever!

                  Won't hurt his status. He is clearly a top 50 allyine fighter.

                  But this showed he is done and should have retired years ago. To get battered by Horn like that was sad to watch. Decision aside, he took a ton of punishment tonight against someone who is not a top 20 Welter.
