Manny Pacquiao ATG status declining?

[daggum]

he was never great and this proves it. one day he will even die. how you going to be great when you dead! as supreme commander trump would say "i like people who don't die"

No, a lot of legends started losing toward the end of their career

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

I think he should keep fighting. For example Duran, a guy Manny is compared to by some, had a huge win late in his career over Davey Moore that offset the losses.

Maybe if Manny fought a Crawford or Spence and managed to pull out a legit win like Duran did then IMO that would offset any lingering doubt about his status that was lost when he crapped the bed against Floyd and then lost to Horn (i had him beating Horn myself).

This is actually brilliant. I heard he’s targeting Lomachenko. If he were to win that fight it’d shake up the entire ATG scene. I wouldn’t even know where to rank him if he pulled that off. Duran is still highly rated and some even have him as the best ever despite the losses.

His legacy as a legend of the sport is set.

If he decides to fight too long and lose fight he shouldn't or wouldn't have in his prime then like a lot of greats we will have some bad memories of him as a shell of his former self.

But his legacy is set.

I feel that your legacy is cemented when you’re just past your sell by date, manny is way past that. In my eyes his atg status can only improve at this point in his career, loses are expected at his age and circumstances, but big wins (against top level fighters in their prime, ie. not Matthysse) would reflect very well looking at his career posthumously.

[The Smash]

He's in his 7th division, is 39 years old and is a sitting senator.

No, his legacy won't be affected.

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

Tried to give everyone Green K and it won’t let me. If I don’t get you today I got you tomorrow!!!!

[FeFist]

He should retire. He's done enough given enough to the sport and I'd like to see him in good health 30 years from now.

That said, losses won't affect his ATG status. He's lost that aura of being inhuman but what he accomplished stands.
