    Damn people thinking Thurman reallllllllllly sucks if Spence is a bridge to far, but Thurman was a fine opponent choice.

    If Manny keeps fighting I think he needs to fight Spence. Or Bud if he goes back to TR. He can compete with the best guys out there. Its bs not to do so. Either retire or fight real mfers.

    If Manny wants to cash in on a novelty fight of some sort fair play to him doe. Manny vs Conor or Khabib or some sh^t like that I don't got no problem with cuz Manny would make bank & that fight would be bigger than boxing.

      I am a big fan of both boxers and I hope that fight never gets made. I think Manny would stand his ground like he always does and would take a bad beating and get KOed by Spence and I don't want that to happen. Spence is the best welterweight to me. At his age and all the tough fights he has been in I think Pac has earned the right to pick his opponents to some extent and not fight Spence or Crawford.

        Manny can hold his own against Spence. He might not win, but he would put up a good fight. He's passed his best, but Manny proved he still has a lot left in the tank and he can still pull off some tricks when he needs to.

        And if he somehow pulls off the win, that would be the final cherry on top to one of the greatest careers ever. He'll be the heavy underdog.

        And if Manny loses, he'll pass the torch down to a prime young lion like Spence.

          I see your point. Maybe Spence and Crawford are not as much better than Thurman as I think they are. Maybe Pac should fight the best which is Crawford and Spence. I just hate to see him go out on a KO beatdown type loss. I rather he retire than that.

            He be foolish to go out and rumble the way he did with Thurman anymore with anyone. I doubt he scared of Spence and if the fight happens I'm sure pac would have a strategy to fit his own abilities at his age. It won't be a go for the kill type fight which I imagine is a lot more draining.

              Maybe, but he deserves to make his own decision. If he is fine with fighting Spence, then you let him do it. No one would have batted an eye if Thurman was to fight Spence next...and Pacquiao just handled Thurman. He is legitimately at that level regardless of his age.

              And if he does take a beating? He won't be any different than legends before him that went out this way.

                    He still got hit by the same punch that make him sleep. Just imagine if it's Spence or Crawford punch!

                      Anyone who thinks even a 40 year old Manny cant outbox a boxer like Spence is delusional.

                      Manny seen everything. To be honest Spence KO power is overrated. He is a downhill fighter. He wears dudes down. He is terrific at that but that **** dont faze Pac and that's something Pac have seen hundreds of times lol.

                      Spence ain't a precision counter puncher he could easily get lost in Pac's movement. Pac an OG man lol he seen everything
