    42 year old Pacquiao vs Haney, Davis, Lopez, or Garcia at 140lbs

    What if Manny Pacquiao for his last fight decided to move down to 140lbs and fight one of these young guns?

    Some of boxing’s youngest future stars are at 135lbs- Haney, Davis, Lopez, R Garcia, etc. They’ll have to move up a few pounds to 140 but Pacquiao is very up there in age. Another possible opponent is Josh Taylor.

    To be great you must dare to be great, as Pacquiao himself once did.

    Will Pacquiao’s size and experience be too much for these kids? Or could one of these kids pull off the upset against the aging legend and achieve superstar status?

    How do u think each of these fights play out?

    Remember Pacquiao will likely be 42 by the time of his next fight.

      Yeah I agree with this, they talk about 140 when it suits but they have never been serious, there is difference between making weight and making it not hurting you.

          Honestly I don’t think 140 would be the problem, 42 is the problem. Too many miles on Pac to match up well with those youngsters.

            Bullshyt. Manny has to eat crazy calories just to fight at 147.

            He can make 140.

                Pac chews up these kids and spits them out. Especially Haney and Garcia. Tank has a punchers chance but doesnt have the character or mental toughness. Lopez has a punchers chance but Pac is still too fast for him.

                  Nah. I don't see it. The Pacman should retire and enjoy his wealth before he's seriously hurt, or worse.

                    Pac isn't chewing anything up at 140. He's not at welter for fun.
