>>> Pacquiao has no wins over an ATG while in his prime...

[travestyny]

well.. look at some of the comments on here.. they're questioning if marquez was even in his prime when he fought pac years before floyd fought him so how can he be prime when he wasnt when pac fought him?

I dunno. Ask the guys who said it. He was definitely in his prime when he fought Pac in my opinion.

The truth is, most fighters don't. Most fighters' resumes are built off fighting a string of good fighters with MAYBE 1, or if they're lucky, 2 really great ones sprinkled in.

Was Marquez out of prime when Floyd fought him?

Not out of prime, but not at his best. He came up two weight classes drinking his own urine. Floyd didn't bother to make the catch weight and refused to be weighed the day of the fight. JMM wasn't the same chiseled version of himself that KO'd Pac later on.

I can agree with some of that, but in the end of the day it's a fight. A fight is a fight.

Marquez was 143 when he blasted out 147 Pac.

He was 142 vs. 146 Floyd.


I certainly think he physically looked better vs. Pac, but that's how he chose to prepare himself. Know what I mean?

Marquez dropped right back to 135 after the Floyd fight. He actually fought at 130 the year prior to the Floyd fight. It was too much too soon.

lmao! yall reaching. if that's the case then aint no boxer is in their prime ever then lol. 29 years old and not in his prime? lmao!

lol smh.. i will never forget that part lmao!!! hard to say marquez was prime or in the best shape of his life when he fought floyd for that simple fact only.

in your case, no boxers is ever in his prime then! so when can a fighter be in his prime? at the age of 18? lmao! i guess spence, crawford, all them aint prime no more then. all over 30 or close to it like you mention barrera being 29 "almost 30" lol.

in my case....dude a fighters prime is not the same for each fighter
spence and crawford have not had wars like bARRERA vs mckinney, jones 2 x, morales and other fights like he did and he is a smaller man
use common sense man


He had twice as many fights as them at the same age come on man

for example Wilfred benitez was shot by his mid to late 20s...why? he was a pro as a teenager, a champ by 17 and 3 division champ by 22-23 and had over 50 fights by the end of it all....dude come on aint know reach you just dont know when i a fighters prime is and everyones prime is not the same age
