If he gets two clear victories over 2 young lions where do you rate Manny all time?

No announcement yet.
How would you rate Manny if he KOs Thurman and then decisions Spence?

I think he climbs a few notches for sure. If you are asking does he pass Floyd-no. Why? Because Thurman, while young, isn't as good right now as Manny, Mosley, Corrales, JMM, ODH or Cotto were when Floyd fought them even though they were older than Thurman.

I think it further elevates his ATG for sure. People will disagree with me but I rate Pac a little higher than Floyd so beating 2 undefeated guys like Thurman and Spence would be icing on the cake.
But let's not jump ahead of ourselves just yet and see how Manny looks against Thurman.

All gravy
Pac is at a point in his career where every win can add to his legacy but can't really hurt it
He's 40

Originally posted by .WesternChamp. View Postbut you just gonna ignored spence? let us know if spence is as good as mosley, jmm, odh, cotto?
That stated, if Manny beats Spence and Crawford, I think we can have a really good debate.
Floyd was 36 when he beat Canelo. Does pac have any win as good as that beyond age 35?Last edited by The Big Dunn; 06-27-2019, 02:03 PM.

Pac won't be retiring till 2022.
2022 is the Philippine Election. I think he has plans to run for President since the incumbent will back him if he runs.
He already transcended boxing when he came to politics. Moreso if he becomes President.

Originally posted by The Big Dunn View PostSpence IMO is as highly respected as all of them except he is not a top 2 or 3 p4p like Manny and JMM were when Floyd beat them. I believe he is between 5-7 in most rankings, which is where Corrales was when Floyd beat him.

that stated, if pac beat thurman, it will definitely put him above floyd since thurman was the fighter floyd ducked. i think this hold more value that a win over spence or crawford (not proven).
