Manny Pacquiao...MAN UP!

Porter fans and Spence haters using the Mikey bout to justify the Porter duck.

I remember Porter saying that "if the Spence fight don't happen, it either of our fault, it looks like the wbc has other plans"

And then a few days after that the wbc prez slapped Porter on the mouth and came out at an interview and said they would definitely order the fight if a request for a unification was made by the champion"

Porter went into hiding after that until after the convention.

Ain't that the truth? Yeah, exactly! I remember that. He didn't won't that work from Erroll Spence back then, now that he knows that Spence is turning his attention towards Manny Pacquiao after the Garcia fight now he is saying he wants to fight him all of a sudden.

This was even after Spence climbed through the ring ropes demanding a unification with him after the Danny Garcia fight and yet he still avoided it. He really don't want that smoke from Erroll because he didn't ask the WBC or Sulaiman for a unification bout.

He'll fight Pac and then Lord that over Spence and Crawford. "I beat a legend like Pac, what have you done to deserve a fight with Keith One Time Thurman?"

"Okay, you best a 4 division champ in Mikey, but I beat an eight division champ. You ain't on my level kid"

I can totally see Thurman saying shieet like this to avoid Spence and Crawford. I absolutely DO NOT want Thurman to get the Pac fight.

Spence must get Pac if he demolishes Mikey, and then Keith can get his rematch with Porter. Winners fight each other.

There is no guarantee he will beat Pac, Lopez almost beat him by stoppage, Pac might even beat him by KO.

You know, stylistically one might think that Pac-Porter could be fireworks, but I actually imagine a fight with more headbutts landed than actual punches. It might well be the ugliest fight of all time. Credit, of course, to Shawn.

Truthfully, if Pac let himself get mugged by the Hornet, he's going to get abused by Porter.

Fair point, but at least Pac is closer to Porter in terms of height and build than he was to Horn - plus there is no longer the excuse of what to do with a dirty fighter, as Horn has given him that experience.

Thurman should fight Ugas as his second tune up since this is a "getting back" year for him. Let Pac fight Porter. Spence needs to fight Crawford. Danny can spend the rest of his career fighting journeymen for all I care.
