Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: I Decided To Pick Spence Because I Wanted To Give Good Fight To The Fans

[djtmal]

Pac spent 2 yrs trying to get easier fights that the public would fall for.
1st up was Conor (failed)
2nd was Mikey (moving down)
3rd maybe Ryan would move up (super long shot)

....and what did he wind up doing...fighting and beating Thurman the guy Floyd ducked only to fight a shopworn c fighter in Andre Berto...

you Floyd boys love to divert and try to focus attention on the wrong thing

Pac would have given anything for the Conor fight to have happened instead. Pac is no fool. Spence and Bud were absolute last choices.

Can't wait for him to retire.

You don't but THEY DO

Correction. You and Floyd boys do.

If Floyd would have just beat these guys in their prime you wouldn't have to make up all of these silly excuses.

That's why Pac wouldn't take less than 40mil to fight Bud !

Floyd was low risk, high reward to no risk high reward

Danny beat Khan and Matthysse @ 140, and not the version that Crawford and Manny fought! I think that was better than Postol and Indongo! However, at 147, he was real average! Who knows what Bud is at 147! The only thing that makes Bud better, is the "eye test!" We assume he's better, but we don't really know!

Crawford never fought Matthysse man. Postol is a better fighter than Matthysse anyway IMO though. I liked Matthysse but he’s slightly overrated, the guy never won a legit world title in his entire career.

Danny had some very good wins at 140 but he never set the world on fire. Crawford dominated every fight he had at 140.

What the public was talking about
BUD and SPENCE ! For the first time in a long while Pac will be fighting 2 legit fighters in a row (with a long break in between)

Apparently Bud was too expensive to make so Spence won the ticket. IMHO, If Pac had his choice of opponent and that opponent was available (and had won his previous fight), it would have been Conor.

Trying to manufacture a reputation for PAC that don't exist. PAC has reputation for fighting all comers. When your in your ,40s, having 70 fights under belt and being former flyweight and your last 2 opponents are Thurman and Spence you can't call PAC a cherry picker, you just can't.
Floyd had a reputation for cherry picking ever since he was known as the main man. And with his last fight as Berti he cemented that reputation in people's hearts, mind, soul, subconscious, phyche the whole works, the whole nine yards and then some
