I really don't see how Spence has earned a fight with Pacman when you compare his resume (even if he beats Mikey) with that of Keith Thurman.
One Time vs. Pacman
Spence vs. Porter
If a guy wants to fight another guy I have no problem. It's boxing and you want to prove yourself. I'd rather have Loma matched against Garcia/Davis/Berchelt or someone more established. Only because at his age, time is not on Loma's side. I get why he doesn't want to go against a prospect that has nothing to really entice him to pick him over anyone else. Now if Top Rank can gather up enough money to sell the fight then I'm sure he would take it.
The thing that I don't really understand is why Lopez's team seem so adamant on making this fight asap. When it's time for your fighter to step up to a pfp guy you want to make sure your guy is in his prime. If I'm Lopez's trainer I'm telling him to go ahead and fight one of the champs at 135 that isn't Loma. Not because there is a lack of confidence but because of the experience and age factor.
Teofimo is a weight bully at 135 and can't handle the cut any longer which is why he's pushing for 140 by year's end (according to him).
He's only calling out Loma for clout because he knows the fight will never happen. If he truly wanted Loma, he'd demand a title fight at 135 to get his name in the actual mix to fight Loma.
Garcia's best wins are still Salido and Broner. It's not that impressive. Titles in 4 weights classes? So does Broner. It's not that impressive. He came to survive tonite. And he had the nerve to raise his hand at the end of every round.
I'd do the same if a weight bully couldn't hurt me.
Thurman needs to learn how to hold when he's in trouble!! He's lucky that was Lopez and not a top guy! Thurman struggles with C level guys like Lopez and Collazo and does good against top guys SMH lol
Thurman has said in interviews that he doesn't like to hold...
Yes he's smaller than mikey but he's so much faster and better and will make spence think twice. I pray that the fight will happen after this.
Are you really a Pacman fan?
I don't believe any real Pacman fan would want to see him fight Spence unless they really want him to be a full time senator
They are about the same height if you compare their photos when they fought the same guy in Broner. Besides, you were labeling Spence as a weight bully when in fact, it was Mikey who asked for the fight. Pac, like Mikey is small at 147 but he has been fighting big WWs for 10 yrs.
1. They are not the same height.
2. Doesn't matter who called out who, a weight bully is a weight bully.
3. Pac has never fought a weight bully, certainly not someone of Spence's size.
Weight bully? I don't get that. If he can make 147 than how is he a weight bully? These casual fans just like to argue lol
If a man becomes a trans-woman and self-identifies as a woman, this person (with all of the natural male testosterone) can now compete with women. Just because he self-identifies as a woman, he's now allowed to box women just because?
And that's precisely what a weight bully is. They're bigger, taller, and stronger than you yet you're both in the same class. Nothing wrong with that but I'm gonna call a spade a spade.
Errol Spence is simply the poster child for weight-bullies all across combat sports.
Don't know why people always ****ting on Khan. He's always taking on challenges and gives the most memorable fights, win or lose.
Maybe this is why so many fighters today duck-and-dodge until they're forced to fight.
If Mikey were to win and he called out Pac that would make Mikey the weight bully considering he's also bigger than Pac
If your aunt had a dick, she'd be your uncle.
What's your point?
You have such a weak argument, do you even do your research before you post? Half inch height difference on paper? Big deal lol! Pac fought jeff Horn, a 5’9 Aussie fighter who recently just KO’d Mundine in round 1 at middleweight. Joshua Clottey, 5’8 who now fights at 160. Antonio Margarito 5’11, slightly bigger and taller than Spence, Oscar Dela hoya, who once held a title at 160 and even fought Bernard Hopkins. Do I need to go on? lol! Spence is a weight bully eh?lol. Sure he would move up to 154 and eventually 160 one day but he would be a small middleweight compared to the likes of Jermall Charlo, GGG, Jacobs and heck even Canelo and 154 fighters like Hurd and Jermell Charlo are slightly bigger than him lol!
There's no argument to make.
I'm simply stating facts.
Yeah right, whatever you say genius. Blatant accusation of Pac’s steroids use for the past 10 years when comparing Mikey and Pac seems logical to you.
The only thing I said about Mikey is that he's taller. That singular statement has made you completely unhinged to the point of talking about Pacman's entire career.
Lord.
1. I dont have to argue with you about their heights, you compare their photos when they fought Broner and you be the judge. Pac is listed as 5”5 1/2 whereas Mikey is 5”6 on boxrec.
2. Spence certainly did not ask for the fight and he did what he was supposed to do. Mikey is a warrior and was trying to write his legacy and become a 5 weight division champ much like what Floyd has done and other ATGs who were champs in multiple weight divisions.
3. You prolly dont follow other boxers’ careers or maybe you just hate Errol Spence that much but Pac has fought much bigger guys (Spence’s size or even bigger) like Jeff Horn, Joshua Clottey, Margarito, Mosley, Jessie Vargas just to name a few.
1. I really don't know what you're arguing about here. They are clearly not the same height.
2. Again, I don't really see what this has to do with Spence being a weight bully. You don't have to actually call out smaller fighters to be a weight bully, cause you know, you're already in a division that is too small for you.
3. You're just further exposing yourself now. NONE of those guys even come close to Spence in terms of sheer size. Spence is a natural middleweight and stands at 5'9.
Pac is not smaller than Mikey. Same height but look at their bodies. Pac has been fighting @147 for 10years now.
They are not the same height. It doesn't matter how much steroids Pacman took for the past 10 years. He's still a midget compared to the weight bully.
Thurman needs it more. If Pac fights someone else like Spence, Mikey or Porter and loses, a fight with Thurman loses it's luster. I think Pac has a better chance beating Porter or Mikey, but we have to see how their respective fights play out.
Porter would make Pac look his age (i.e. retired).
Pac would handle Mikey though.
The commentators are all in agreement that Fury is winning the fight and even TBE had it at 5-0 so this **** will look completely bogus if the judges give it to Wilder.
Because he just out boxed someone almost every one said he could not out box.
Congrats.
The weight bully had his way with a midget and now it looks like he is calling out an even smaller and older midget.
Here we go again with these steroids claims lol. Nobody can prove he had used steroids or any PEDS. Anyone who accuse Pac is a pachater and not a true fan of the sweet science plain and simple.
I understand you’re a fan of Mikey’s I get that. He lost to a better man tonight regardless of weight though. Didnt he say that Spence only had an advantage with his size and power? Robert even said Mikey is going to surprise Spence with his power? After tonight, looks like Spence had an advantage with skills and everything lol.
This statement alone clearly indicates to me this conversation is beyond your scope of understanding.
How you draw that conclusion is beyond logic itself considering I've not mentioned that midget's name even once.
