    [QUOTE=Roadblock;19610879]Off course Id give Manny credit, but he wont beat Spence and he wont even fight him. Spence will destroy Manny he is way too much for a 40yr old Manny , get out out of the dreamscape kid the real world hits hard.[/QUOTE

    Pac would be the underdog because Spence is younger and bigger and Pac is 40 and past his prime but he’s still a very dangerous opponent and anything could happen in boxing. I tell you what, if Spence beats Pac, I would congratulate you but if Pac beats Spence, are you willing to do the same thing? There’s no Arum to manipulate Pac now, so if Pac said he will fight Spence, it will happen. Crawford is Arum’s new victim and expect him to fight nobody but bums until he leaves Arum.

      I will be surprised if Manny fights him, its all talk and he is back peddling already.

        The only thing that would stop him from doing it is the Mayweather rematch or a WBA unification with Thurman. Pac is a real warrior and he will fight at least one of these 3 boxers before he retires.

          Yeah thats why he fights B graders and talks A graders he hasnt fought a in form A grader for years, he dont want Spence its already been talked about, he knows its a beat down into retirement.

            Spence obviously didnt fight him like he did Brook and make it a war.
            Explain? Spence 5'9, a natural 147 pound welter, Garcia 5'6 a natural lightweight. Spence used his jab and reach to keep Garcia at bay. Did you watch the fight, sober I mean? Spence fought the right fight. A talented big, faster guy against a smaller, slower guy. What is it that you do not understand?

                Are they going make it appear it's Pac that doesn't want it and make him the fall guy again just like in the Crawford situation?
                It's weird. Arum and haymon are both scared to put their future cash cow against an old and past prime pac.

                  B graders? That’s old, he’s not with Arum anymore, he didn’t sign up with Haymon to fight B graders. Broner was his tuneup fight before the "big fight”, if there’s no Mayweather rematch, it would be a Thurman unification for WBA belt or a fight with Spence. Win, lose or draw, he will retire after 2 more fights, those are the only fights that he wants. I wanna hear what you have to say when it happens.

                      Pac of the Cotto fight from 10 years ago beats Spence.

                      Today he is too old. He could still give him some trouble with his hand speed and angles, but he gets hit too much now days and he doesnt have the power he used to.

                      I still think he would atleast have some moments as compared to Garcia who had none at all due to his slow speed. I dont want to see it though, why watch pac get battered in a fight you dont think he can win, I take no joy in that.
