    2 different fighters, and Mikey is not a 40 year old man.

    Just imagine Spence's length,size, power, speed, conditioning, stamina, explosiveness, activity against a smaller aging old man who has been on a straight decline in the past couple years.

    Spence threw hundreds of punches in the later rounds against Garcia, now imagine him throwing hundreds of punches against a smaller old man with slowing eyesight and reflexes.

    It's just a complete mismatch.

      IDK why Arum didn't try to make Pacquiao v Crawford that would be better match up than Spence
      I don't agree with that,Crawford can fight good going back and counter, that's his weakness and why JMM and mayweather were difficult fight for him,Spence fights more going forward which would lead to a more fan friendly fight and suits Manny better in my opinion, there will also be more action

        C'mon now! Nobody wants to see that fight. Let that old man retire in peace. Spence vs Crawford or Spence vs Thurman needs to happen next

          I really don't want to see this fight, but if Manny Pacquiao enters the ring after your fight, you can't say no! I wish Roach would say no, or Haymon would say no, but when Jerry Jones is a player, and you're in front of 47.5K fans, you have to say yes!

          I think Pacquiao would rather fight Thurman, but Thurman doesn't have that fan base in Dallas like Errol does! I guess we're getting Thurman vs. Porter II?

            Ideally, I would like to see Mikey fight Pacquiao next. Now that would be a great, competitive fight.

            Spence hopefully gets Porter next, since Thurman doesn't want it until 2020 or never. Fight Porter next, then the mega fight with Crawford before moving up. I think Spence would be even stronger, and better at 154. He cuts a LOT of weight.

              I saw a video on YouTube with Crawford and Spence talking and messing with each other before the fight last night. Neither guy is afraid of the other the way they were talking.But Spence said something and Crawford agreed with it. Both fighters are trying to cash in before facing each other. Spence said why wouldn’t I fight Garcia, and then Porter, Thurman, and Danny, before facing you. Why wouldn’t I take the easier fights first. Why wouldn’t you do that? Crawford was like true, your right.

                I'm ready to see Spence move up too! Thurman and Porter don't want it! If Crawford fights well, and sells well, it might be time for Spence Jr. vs. Crawford! Spence gonna get that fat check for Pacquiao first! Jerry Jones will make sure of that! If Bob won't let Crawford fight on SHO/FOX, then I would love to see Spence Jr. fight Castano @ 154! Spence Jr. vs. Canelo for Cinco de Mayo 2020!

                  Manny couldn't wait to get out the ring and would be out just as quick should this silly match up be made......move on!

                    The problem with Manny vs Spence is that Manny will engage and take risks instead of just survive like Mikey did, and that will get him KO'd. He would take less damage with Crawford in the non-fan-friendly style match up.
                    Manny says he can beat Spence with speed. He should probably not be spouting off.

                      Great work to Errol Spence, he didn’t just punish a smaller boxer he out boxed a top notch boxer. More success to Mikey!!!
