    Pacman is also a lightweight fighting welterweights. At 40 he should retire or go down to140 before he gets hurt by Spence?

      I have my doubts about that. WW is an incredibly competitive weight class. I think Mikey would have major problems with any of the title holders. I totally disagree about going to 140. Mikey would feel more comfortable there being closer to his natural weight, with more speed and power. That really is his best option right now.

        How? Because he moved up to a higher weight class and lost to arguably the top WW? His natural weight class is LW but since he lost to Spence he's been exposed. You really are the definition of a casual fan.

            The only person that I think Mikey would beat at 147 is Danny Garcia. I really hope he goes back down to 135

              Porter would just steamroll Mikey IMO

              Mikey might get ktfo by a Danny Garcia left hook, yeah, I don't think he beat Danny.

              He's totally outgunned there.

              I don't even know if he beats the top 140 pounders Taylor, prograis...

              Mikey is ruining his career if he sticks to fighting top.dudes at 147 just like Broner did.

              He sounds as much as delusional as Broner post maidana.
              Yeah, Porter has an iron chin and would maul him to a decision win. I just dont see him beating Garcia either. Thurman's right hand would catch him time and again. Pac's angles would be too much for him I believe. And Crawford would keep him at the end of a jab. Like you said, 140 is deep. He is sort of in a no mans land for himself at 140/147. I doubt he gets back down to 135 without being drained to some extent and Davis and Lom are serious threats. Maybe some vacant belt somewhere but that would be anticlimactic to his career.

                Interesting statistic. Robert Easter is 5'11 with a 76 inch reach and Spence is 5'9 1/2 with a 72 inch reach. One guy gives up his height and the other guy uses it to perfection. I've always thought that Spence gauges distance really well. He also has great balance.

                  Yeah right! He has no chance. All the welterweights will beat him especially Pacquiao, Crawford, Thurman and Porter.

                      Should start from the bottom of 147 or from the top of 140 or better yet retire with health intact and enjoy the money!
