    manny's Stylistic Advantage Over Spence

    do you see this playing a major role in their fight. manny has traditionally done well against come forward pressure guys even the ones who can box like Miguel & Errol

    what makes Spence different from the mold is he's a lefty. Having the same stance gives his jab additional openings to land

    Spence is longer/bigger than Miguel and can (arguably) box better on the backfoot than Miguel.

      I think Spence's size and youth advantage will be bigger factors.

        I am going with Pacquaio to win, I think spence style just leaves him to susceptible to shots and Manny shots dont play, spence will feel a shot or two and entire game plan will change and Pacman will go on to win a clear decision.

          Spence probably has the best jab he's ever faced to be fair. This fight could look like Lopez-Lomachenko.

            Stylistically, Pacquaio has advantages.

            Prime for prime I’d favour him heavily but at this point, I think the age will be too much.

            But Pacquaio will have a lot of moments regardless. He still has the speed advantage by a big margin.

              It could play a factor but Spence is prime, big, strong, a lefty and damn good at what he does. I just think that combination of things will make Spence just too much for Pacquaio to deal with.

                I think Spence has a great chance to catch Manny coming in.

                  Spence has a really good defense for how offensive he is.

                    Pac has done well mostly vs guys who were at their worst AND right handed.

                    Spence is neither
