This thread is in response to that tired excuse that MAB and EM were past their primes when they faced PAC.
Here are some facts for all 3 fighters(well it's only PAC on this list I'd consider a fighter, but that's another argument for another topic)
If you take take a look at all 3 fighters records starting in the year 2003 and ending w/ each fighters last bout...
PAC
5 - 1 - 1
* Notable wins: TKOS over MAB and EM
MAB
5 - 1
* Notable wins: MD over EM and SD over Juarez
- MAB is on a 5 fight win - streak, since his
lost to PAC
EM
4 - 3
* Notable wins: UD over PAC, UD over J. Chavez,
and UD over F. Hernandez
My question is, howcome EM's defeats against Zahir and his last fight against MAB, no one was using the excuse of EM being past his prime? Another thing I'd like to point out, is when EM lost to MAB, he came right back by convincingly beating PAC. It's only PAC's victory, that the excuse of "being past it" is used for EM.
The excuse of " Past his prime" should already been thought of prior to the upcoming fight, afterall those wars took place prior to the current fight.
For example: The notion of EM being "past it" prior to
facing Zahir didn't even enter my head in
why I chose Zahir over EM.
I thought Raheem's sheer athletic ability,
was what was gonna carry him to victory.
I would've picked Raheem over EM in any
stage of EM's career.
MAB always gave EM problems.
PAC attacked EM's biggest weakness he has
had throughout his career... Erika has
never shown he can stomach an all out
assault on his kidneys and liver.
Folks those are the real reasons why EM
LOST not because of being past it against
PAC.
As far as MAB being past his prime, well
his record(it speaks for itself)staring
in '03
is just as good as a "peaking" PAC.
As to why PAC dropped the 1st fight against
EM....
I think it had to do more w/ PAC being
overconfident, not really having a gameplan
(of course no one to blame but PAC himself)
PAC made EM look better than he actually
is.
The rematch, w/ a solid gameplan... ATTACK
THE BODY, setting the left up w/ a jab.
EM ****ted his pants, that's why he didn't
wanna get up in the 10th, afraid the world
was gonna see the mudslide running down his
blood-soaked white trunks and down his
legs(lol).
