Comments Thread For: Ellerbe: If It Were Up To Me, Wouldn't Let Pacquiao Fight Spence

[Szef]

I want to see this fight.

I'm glad Leonard Ellerbe is saying this - nobody wants to see that fight!

[thack]

Agreed ..........

Manny will be 41 and nearly a foot shorter. How many advantages does Spence need?



Frankly, I would first like to see Spence fight the best in his era but by then Manny might be 80.

Manny just beat a tip top guy. He's a hunter & should be hunted right back. He's on the table for anyone at 147.

In fact to me its a 3 horse race at 147 now. Spence, Bud & Manny & Spence vs Manny is the easist fight to make.

You ain't see the fight Saturday or something? Manny f#cked up Thurman's day. He took his 0. He took w/e belt he still had. He dropped the younger man.

Why wouldn't we wanna see Manny vs Spence or Bud for that matter. Its a 3 man division at the tip top & Manny is one of those 3 w/e age he is.

I'm the cat who's always saying its a young mans game, BUT there are & always been outliers & I think Manny has proven in the past he's one of them just with high level success past 33, 35 when most guys are done. And this W just doubles down on Manny being an amazing fighter whos no easy W for anyone & if you don't watch out he ain't a W for you at all.

Not only do.I think Thurman won I think he finished pacman. That was way to much of a beating at his age and put the nail.I'm the coffin. I think it's highly.likely.he gets more in his next fight after putting all into this

You’re certainly in the minority... no one with a brain had Thurman winning bud. Cmon. Let me guess... Tim Bradley won the first fight too? Lol

Keith, a gate keeper? He's more like a brick wall.




There are MAYBE Two WW that have a chance to beat Keith but until they fight we don't know for sure.

IMO there are 4 that could beat him at this point. Danny g could beat him in a rematch. Porter could beat him in a rematch. Spence would stop him and Crawford most likely would as well. Thurman is in fact a gate keeper at this point. The 3rd tier guys gonna have to fight Thurman to get a shot at the actual quality Welters

What blurry stream were you watching so being cheap and pay for the fight so you can see what really happened

I disagree. He should fight Spence. Pac is 40 years old and knows his body and limitations by now but I wouldn't rush him to fight him as soon as come back from his hiatus either.

Right now Pac is gift. To still be fighting at a high caliber championship level against quality opposition at 41 years old is a gift.

He has done his time and paid his price to fight whomever he so pleases. My one only concern is the amount of punishment he is going to absorb in that fight.

If you thought that Keith Thurman put a real asswhooping on Pac, then just imagine what Erroll Spence, Jr would do; With even better timing and conditioning.

[Chris Hanson]

He already won the title Harrison has vs Margarito back in the day. No need for that. Does nothing.

I see. Wow, he should fight charlo then. The worst champion at middle.
