    Would make sense, tbh

    Both Spence and Porter are fighting March, so lining up the WBC/IBF unification for the fall would make sense.

    Thurman and Pacquiao are also fighting around the same time as each other, and you have that WBA/wba dynamic, but I'm just not sure that that's the fight that Pacquiao would want, tbh.

    Still, both those bouts line up, and you've got a WBC/WBA/IBF unification fight for early 2020 (Danny Garcia is kinda on the outside looking in here, but he headlines in April against Granados, likely headlines again against Andre Berto for later in the year, and likely has one more headlining fight in early 2020 before being the top challenger for the new unified champion for later that year)

          LOL... first it was manny will not fight a puncher, then he stops lucas and then "lucas is a nobody".. LOL.

          funny because pac just fought bradley 3x and the 3rd fight wasnt that long ago. i guess bradley is old and washed up too? lol. pac just dominated vargas, the same guy broner fought life and death with. and now pac is fighting broner.

              if mikey beats spence then pac will fight mikey and thurman would fight porter

              but what if broner beats pac, does he fight thurman?

              its alot of of hypothetical matchups at 147 that ride on broner vs pac.

              hoepfully floyd stays retired. no pac rematch necessary. but maybe he fights broner. add khan vs brook. and bud is left out of all of it. smh

                I agree with everything. If Mikey beats Spence, he should fight Pac and Thurman should fight Garcia or Porter again

                  lucas been getting beat up for years. please stop it bro.

                  you dont have to pump up guys to make pac look good. we get it, you're a fan. but dont bring up matthysse like it was a dangerous fight. nobody picked lucas bro.

                  vargas is the same level as broner. so whats the point in fighting broner? pac already beat up his equal right?

                  bradley, vargas, broner, lucas have how many ko's at 147?

                  about 1 a piece. lol

                      Nope.

                      When Manny signed a two-fight deal with Haymon, he specifically said that if he doesn't get Floyd, he wants Mikey for his second fight.
