        Manny is already an ATG... If he beats Errol then he transcends that category and becomes an AFL.. That's Absolute Fekken Legend!

          Still leaning towards Manny for this. Yes Spence is strong but I think his slower feet and lack of a straight left will be his undoing. Spence’s money shot is that left to the body like Canelo but I don’t think he’s going to get close enough often enough to land it often enough to make a difference whereas I do think he’ll struggle with Manny’s odd timing and particularly his straight left. I think Spence will struggle to dictate the pace and rhythm. He struggled with Porter and Pac is a lot more accurate and quick once he closes range, also has quicker feet.

            I think Pacquiao is just being humble. He already knows that he's on e the the all time great. all fighters and boxing fans know it.

                Nice Winning gloves on Pac there.
                And he's definitely an ATG

                  Pacquaio's legacy is secure. He's been in with better fighters than Spence. This adds to his legacy, because to beat one of the best, while being age 42, that's the thing.

                    Pac is not an ATG, and the beating he’s going to get from Spence will shut the door in his face. He’s got a better shot at becoming the president of his country, the Rčtārdo Islands

                      What does a victory do for Spence? Everyone is raving on how great Pacquiao is, and many think Manny wins easily, however, I get he feeling if Spence wins, then it's "Oh, Pacquiao was 42!"
