i like Pac but beating trash ass Barrios isnt going to change anything regarding his ATG status

I dont think that much of Barrios either especially after his last fight but we really have to be careful not to underrate him.....he lost to Tank and Thurman....two guys that are not in the HOF or even on the porch but they are in the yard. He beat Ugas who really sent Pac in to his first retirement. Should Pac win this fight....he has to get some credit. The question is where does he rank already? I mean he cant leapfrog Floyd or nothing silly but Barrios isnt complete trash if you look at his record.

:sas2:been saying for years all yall favorite athletes are on something.


Jermall just dont look right or act right to me. Look at his eyes. He just seems subdued. At best he is game, at worst....his fire is gone. I just seen this too many times. I think at 35 he is no longer a dominant fighter, especially not at 168.

Brehs in here acting like stepping back in the ring at 46 yrs old and snatching a strap off a youngster is some normal feat.. especially being inactive for 4 yrs.. Hell he was inactive for 2 yrs leading up to his last loss.. I'd be impressed of Floyd came back and did it at 44 yrs old vs Barrios

yeah, Father Time is undefeated. it takes a SPECIAL fighter at 46 to beat a young top 10-15 ranked fighter especially below HW. the lower the weight the harder.

This is a dangerous fight and I don’t like it.

I would hate to see Pac lose to a guy that he would kill in his prime, but it is what it is.
