Comments Thread For: Hopkins: Pacquiao Has The Mental Edge in Spence Title Fight

I see two butthurt males wounded from knowing a fighter of Horn’s level brought it to manny. Yeah a b-level guy pulled it off.

yes styles matter but so does levels

Errol like Horn is also a pressure fighter and he’s 2 to 3 levels better to top it off

[Stuntman Mike]

good job butthurt Mike. Your one achievement is being a huge boxing fan

clap clap

What satisfaction do you get out of posting mediocre dribble like this...you think this upsets or hurts anyone

Non educated in boxing and a terrible troll I just don't see the satisfaction you get from posting unless this is just a bad day for you or you think you're making some sort of intelligent impact on the site or hurting someone's feelings?

It's ridiculous ,every post in this thread wouldn't have upset someone (which is normally the point of a troll,said person feels great satisfaction hurting someone's feelings)

And non of your posts are educating no factual or opinionated

It's just meaningless hatred

If I was Spence, I’d be very confident knowing JEFF HORN of all fighters gave manny hell

Is spence planning to headbutt and clinch and wrestle and rabbit punch?

Finally an actual opinion on how the fight will play out ,sort of

You fail to see that Horns amateurish head first lunges would be a problem for a lot of fighters especially a smaller fighter with less range ..

Levels or not he takes chances and its normally head first,much like Shawn porter in his earlier days more rough and rugged a problem for absolutely anybody..granted he's honed his skills down more and alot more adaptive and less lungey (porter)


OK so spence is more technical,he's going to work his way inside...he's not going to rush in headfirst from a non power punching stance with both legs off the ground like Horn

Spence will move forward with his legs set always in a position to throw a power punch(unlike horns amateurish bum rushing )

He will work his way in with a jab and set feet (which can be countered if mannys on form)


Two totally different fighters and its obvious spence is the better fighter out of Horn and spence but that's not to say that spence isn't more stylistically tailored for mannys style and countering

To compare the Horn fight and the Spence fight is completely moronic

Whatever it takes to win

manny is an offensive machine but is lacking with inside fighting and dirty fighting

why not capitalize on an area manny isn’t good at

manny getting worked by lower level Horn fuels Errol’s confidence

Errol is good inside where Horn did great work and manny is lacking. How foolish of you to think Errol’s trained eye won’t find things in the tape he can use besides HEAD RUSH

manny hasn’t experienced a very good southpaw jab

I think people are telling themselves whatever they need to make them feel good about Manny's chances here. This is a very very tough fight for Manny. He's definitely fighting an uphill battle. He hasn't fought a fighter like Spence in a while and he's gonna get hit, especially with that jab. If he can't hurt Spence, he's gonna have a tough fight. I think he starts strong but by mid way through the fight Spence takes over.

The only advantage of spence is his size, age and physical strenght and probably power but other than that it's all pac.

Will Pac win?

Let see if Spence lands his jab more than usual as they both southpaw. He has a direct trajectory to land it

Floyd who isn’t known for his jab upstairs won the manny fight with the jab
