Mikey Garcia's Grandpa says Spence has no power. He didn't prove that in the ring with Mikey. A 70% Pac is enough to beat Spence | BoxingScene Community
Great Interview with Mikey Garcia's Dad (not Grand father). Some quotes I've written below, but there's more to it in this video. Good watch.
https://youtu.be/1_IzdyFyFFM
@0:51 - "And look who he's fighting now! The best fighter in welterweight! That means Pacquiao is not fuvking around! Pacquiao would even fight the devil! He's not scared of nobody."
@ 6:40 - "Errol Spence hasn't shown he's super strong, he beat us but he never hurt Mikey, therefore he didn't show he's super strong. He's a difficult fighter because he's a south paw, tall reach he's good, he knows how to use his reach. But I think Pacquiao si gonna get on the inside and take away his distance. If that happens, it's a dangerous fight for Spence.
@6:14 - "Nothing would surprise me! I think Pacquiao will stop him! He throws a lot of punches. I think Spence won't be able to handle that pressure. I think Pacquiao can stop him, if he pressures Spence... be careful Pacquiao hits hard, very hard, he is very strong!"
@6:35 - "If Pac has something left of his greatness, then is dangerous!" ---- Yes! with 70% of what Pacquiao was he can beat Spence.
@ 5:52 - "Pacquiao has destroyed a lot of fighters outside of his natural weight class, he's so good! It is possible he's going to beat up Errol Spence, Don't doubt it! Pacquiao is very brave. He's tremendous!"
pac gets sloppy in the later rounds tho! you cant deny that... he took some unnecessary punches from thurman in the later rounds by being sloppy.. i dont think he can afford to do the same against spence. he doesnt like to grab and hold when he's tired so he'll punch it out against his opponent but in the later rounds, he's a lot slower and more sloppier so this will give spence a chance to catch him.
You can call it sloppy or basically Pac got caught.
When you get tired. You get caught since you lose focus.. We can say he tired out that's why Thurman was catching him towards the end.. I think it can be either of the two. Pac got caught or Pac was clumsy, but what caused it could be down to an old man's stamina.. That's what worries me..
Spence has a real shot at winning, if Pac's stamina depletes in the later rounds.. Spence should find away to capitalized that. Pac will get tired in the later rounds. It's up to Pac to find away to win those rounds while being exhausted and old.
Exactly! His not a 1 punch knock out artist. His an accumulation puncher. Pac is too smart to stay in a pocket for too long for Spence to unload in him. He can't KO Pac, while Pac has demonstrated he can drop guys with one punch and not just accumulation. Most recent will be Thurman round 1.

Well no s h ! t
He couldn’t KO Mikey, Porter or Danny.
He’s not even rattling PAC.

Manny's counter-punching and defense in that fight was very effective.
A lot of what floyd threw just got caught in gloves or simply evaded and countered. You could tell floyd was hesitant to throw the jab with any authority - hence why none of his punches seemed to hurt manny.
Floyd got caught bad in round 4 and from that point on he decided he'd just go into survival mode and let his paid judges score the fight for him. But even after round 4, i just saw floyd simply get outlanded in most rounds.
Yes, to counter Floyd's Jab. Manny became a counter puncher that night and his constant moving around gave Floyd all the trouble he can face against an injured half effective torn rotator cuff Pacquiao.
Its not the same use of a jab.

Wow.. Now you're learning to research.. You have a point, but you didn't realize Floyd could have done a double or triple jab to push Pac as well, but Floyd felt it won't be effective against a moving target like Pac. That's the problem if Spence uses his jab plodding forward in a straight line without head movement. (Spence walks in, in a straight line). This will Easily be seen by a vet like Pac. Which Spence has no head movement at all. Pac will just spin him from the side and get that Right hook then unleash from different angles. That will disrupt Spence Jab throughout the fight in my humble opinion, and if Spence keeps using that Jab. He will find himself resetting position, because Pac will be gone by the time he throws those jabs.
man i aint even gon take anything serious coming out of his mouth!!! this the same mofo that said mikey was gonna stop manny in 9 rounds or dont pay them!!! lmao!!!!
that's a fact.. spence doesn't have power. even mikey garcia doesn't look hurt.. he was just neutralized by spence.. but for manny? a 80% pac will annihilate spence how much more if he gets to 90%..
True, Pac neutralized Floyd's Jab. That's how good Pac is in evading jabs. Floyd couldn't use to his advantage. Spence will have the same problem. Pac will find away to take that out of the equation.

I dont think their speaking on emotions they are professionals been around a long time , I think its more,like face value on what they faced, Errol fought a very different fight in that he wanted to outbox Mikey and didnt care to really go for a stoppage, its easy to get into that groove in a fight where youre winning well within yourself and dont push for a KO unless it just presents itself, its the same deal where Manny is a recognized big puncher and you have guys like Bradley saying he dont punch hard, so much is taken on the back of what was faced and fighters dont always have the same power fight after fight, lots of variables alter how the power is delivered and perceived.
I think tim bradley said manny punches hard, you might be referring to jorge solis who said his wife hits harder than pacquiao even though manny stopped him.
True, Pac neutralized Floyd's Jab. That's how good Pac is in evading jabs. Floyd couldn't use to his advantage. Spence will have the same problem. Pac will find away to take that out of the equation.

pac made floyds jab ineffective. floyd was too hesitant to step in with the jab beause of mannys speed and countering ability so he stayed so far away that he wasnt able to cleanly hit pac with it. then again he "won" the fight even though pac landed most of the hard shots so i guess that set the precedent. then again spence isnt floyd and doesnt have his political power

You should know those old school Mexicanos are racist man, they do not like blacks, so you cant take Senor Garcia seriously here, he is speaking off emotions. Also Pacman is 42 and hasn't fought in two years, unless that long rest rejuvenated him, which I doubt, he gets stopped by Errol Spence.
Spence has show he can take a punch and he hits hard, he has already broke the bones of fighters in their face, if he didn't hit hard how come he broke facial bones?
