    Something is telling me Manny is going to shock the world and easily beat Spence

    I mean the age factor scares me, the dude is almost 43. So we can't be too confident.

    But I've always maintained prime Pac would whip Spence with ease.

    Speed. Is Pac still faster than Spence? Yes. I think he's more powerful too (people will disagree on this).

    0:39. Pac is right here about speed. Assuming your chin is good, and you've got good fundamentals. It's always hard to overcome a fighter faster than you. Speed is the deciding factor, always. You're always playing catchup with the other guy when you can't see his punches coming, struggle to time him, and get beaten to the punch. I remember Pac commenting on the Floyd Canelo fight, saying Canelo needs to be careful because Floyd is faster than him. I didn't think Floyd was that much quicker than Canelo but the fight told a different story.

    Speed is key.

            I don’t see it but it’s not impossible.

              He knocked down nearly everyone he's fought and Spence has no head movement. Straight up and down no special effects.

              He coukd get frozen up by manny and whooped

                Stamina and legs..(footwork). If he has it, then he has a chance. PAC tired a bit from rounds 7-12 against Thurman. Was it the flu or his age?However, he did have a sense of where he was at during the fight.

                He really can’t afford many rounds off. Due to age, he does. He has to pick his spots and ensure he has fuel left.

                  PAC needs to build a lead early like he did against Thurman... 4-2 or 5-1 against Spence. Spence will be relentless down the stretch. Getting a lead allows him to pace himself.

                    I can't agree more and I have the same feelings!
