    this is obviously a poorly translated interview


    "If I'm fighting for the money, then I would have picked some scrub to fight. Why would I try to fight an undefeated fighter if I'm chasing the paycheck?"


    pacquaio doesnt talk like that, so that is def not him in english and there are some slang thrown in by the translator for sure. Pacquaio probably said he would make an easier fight for money or that he could make near the same money with an easier fighter. I dont see him referring to fighters as "scrubs" though. this is a pretty garbage article and translator.

      If Jeff Horn can easily maul PAC, Spence can do it.

        I can't see Manny pulling this off after a two year layoff at age 42. Spence is in his prime, he's too big and too strong. Walks around over 180 lbs. I don't see Manny getting past Spence's jab.

              I think Manny walks around about 155. Spence and Crawford are both 180+, in fact Spence is looking to move to 154 soon, he is outgrowing 147. I suspect fight night he is entering the ring as a middleweight or super middleweight at least.

                pac said in one interview that he will cut some weight to gain more speed so i think he'll be walking around at 150..

                    why not

                    for a fighter massively praised for his offense

                    manny skill set doesn’t include dirty fighting and infighting

                      Really well Algieri is bigger than Spence go look at their match, watch them move around Algieri is bigger. or at least same size. Spences size is being blown out of proportion he has been walking around at 160 for over a year now.
