Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence

[Spoon23]

I'll leave that to the boxing historians.

As a boxing fan I want him to go for this fight. But I am worried he will get badly hurt.

True, he's suppose to be old,, but he seems to defy odds..Like a car with a long mileage but still running fine. A well built car..

We don't know how much is left in him.. We all know he still can box at a high level. Enough to fights these young dudes. He can lose overnight in his coming fight or he can win it.. We don't really know.. That's what makes it exciting to watch.. but yes, I rather he retires now. He has nothing left to prove, at this point he is only adding to his legendary career. And if he beat Spence. He will again be fighter of the decade. A tall order but if he does the impossible and defy the odds he again adds to his legendary career.

The money has to be right

Pac got 20 million for Broner. I expect he’ll demand double for Spence

Should be worth it just in case he gets badly damaged.

Everyone picking PAC to beat Spence are crazy

Spence is too young , big , fast and powerful for PAC at this stage in his career

PAC has proved in the last couple years that he has enough in the tank to beat regular World Champions ( Broner , Vargas , Algieri ) The whole crop of top end WWs ( Spence , Crawford , Thurman ) would wreck PAC ,


If Haymon is setting it up that PAC fights the winner of Spence / Garcia ( which makes sense for the winner to be the one to take the torch from PAC )
Either Garcia or Spence are going to absolutely beat the f.ucking brakes off Manny in the worst way and it’s going to basically be a public execution designed to make either Mikey or Spence a star

Spence will knock PAC out.
He looked off balance jumping in against Broner I know Spence comes forward but manny doesn’t have the same reflexes power stamina and agility to stay in with Spence at his age right now.

Spence can beat Manny in a beat down not Mikey.

What is the common denominator between Mikey, Porter and Pacquiao?

They all fought Broner.

Who among the 3 fighters Broner was scared to let his hands go in fear if getting beat up?

Pacquiao. Broner wasn't scared of Porter or Mikey's punch and he traded with them, while Pac was too strong that he rather just cower and try to survive 12 rounds. That's the difference.

So if Spence loses to Mikey. It means Pac can handle Mikey and that Spence is not the beast that he was meant to be hyped about. And obviously Pac handle Mikey since Mikey exchanged with Broner and not Pacquiao

And If Mikey loses to Spence in a close battle. It also shows, Spence is not the beast that the boxing fans are making him to be and will make for a competitive fight with Pac in a 50/50 fight.

IF Spence wins in a dominating Fashion against Mikey. Then I say Spence is a scary mofo that Pac should stay away from him.

The Spence and Mikey fight will tell a lot on how good spence really is. Spence easily got tagged by Brook which is a slower man than Pacquiao. If Brook can hit Spence, for sure Pac can hit him even better.

And that is why Pacquiao is still in the conversation. It shows what he still got.

Manny recently talked about how he couldn't believe he "survived" against Margarito in their 150 lb catchweight fight back in 2010 because Margarito was so much heavier, taller, and rangier than he was in that fight. Pacquiao was in his prime back then and messed up Margarito's face, but Pacquiao took some hard shots in the process.

Pac is now much older, and Spence is stronger, fresher, and better conditioned than Margarito was back then. Pacquiao's fight night weight against Broner was only 149, imagine what Spence's fight night weight will be.

Margarito is 5'11, spence is 5'9, margarito then was considerably stronger than spence is now, margarito is much more durable, and has a much bigger skeleton(bigger skull etc), spence is a peanut in comparison, pacquiao's big ass head and frame would have him looking like david tua next to spence. Not to mention it will be at 147, not 150.

The fight is winnable for either guy. Im favouring Pacquiao but it needs to happen now at the latest, because he's ability to take a punch and stamina have surely declined with age and will only continue to do so.

TBE didn't fancy it at youthful 38, the well preserved hardly touched, only 49 fights under belt. So Pac should stay away.
But if god says Pac should face these guys, I think the only scenario is if spence, Crawford and thurman, Garcia fight it out amongst themselves beat the snot out of each other first then Pac can fight one of his choice.
These posers haven't the decency to fight each other and people calling Pac to answer call. DIsgusting.

[Scopedog]

Spence ices any welterweight outside of the top 2 or 3. If Pacquiao were 10 years younger then he might stand a chance but at 40 I just don't think he'd be able to deal with it.
