Did Pac reach his prime above or below lightweight?

I'm one of the few who still thinks he's reaching his prime at this point.
Many believe he's already reached it, others say he's peaked.

I think Pac will be one of those few rare fighters who retires with wins and not a several loses. Possibly even as a champ...

Like Carbajal, Monzon and Jofre (with wins)

I think now is Pac's PHYSICAL prime its only a matter of maintaining it. it could be all downhill from the Marg fight.

TECHNICALLY I think he's at 90%. Margarito should have not cause some damage.
He should learn to avoid unnecessary damages.

I think it's the opposite.. technicality wise, he fights smarter than he ever has.... I just don't think physically he is what he was 4 to 5 years ago, and that made him take more from Margarito than he could have..

He has carried the weight up incredibly well though, so he can physically overpower BIG welterweights like Margarito and Cotto...


I think if "prime" encompasses everything like intelligence, physical attribute, mental will, skill etc.... Then right now as Mick said, he is absolutely prime and could look better in every fight he's in...

That's another nice way of looking at it.

But i think PHYSICALLY the strength, stamina, speed, power etc are already at their PEAK. No way he could be faster, stronger, etc from this point.

Saying he is TECHNICALLY at his peak means there are no more additional skills he can acquire which i think is not the case because IMO Pac can still add up to his arsenal.
