Would Porter give Pac the same problems Horn did??

[Richard G]

Let's all agree that every time Pac gets beaten it's a robbery LOL.

With that out of the way, the Porter - Spence fight very strongly indicated that both would beat Packy. The physicality and endurance shown in their fight would be enough.

stop being a drama queen... the only times pac was trully robbed were vs bradley 1 and jeff freaking horn

there are a few that claim robbery vs floyd but they are in a huge minority

First, I think Pac got robbed against Horn. But, everyone saw that Pac was bothered by the physicality and bullying. He didn't have a lot of answers for that. Porter is a much higher level bully that Horn.
Whatcha think??
Pac is the better fighter for sure but is this a "styles make fights" thing?...

Porter would be an absolute nightmare for this version of Pac stylistically.

[FinitoxDinamita]

Porter used to be Pac’s sparring partner for years. They know each other well.

[uppercut510]

porter would beat pac man at this point style is all wrong for him

You kinda took a dump on your own credibility in the first paragraph but your conclusion regarding 40 year old Pac is probably right.

I agree with the robbery...and yes Porter's aggression would make it a dog fight and hard for Pac but baring a robbery I think the version of Pac (Pac on a good night) who fought Thurman wins.

If that fight happened it's gonna be 2020 Pacquiao and Porter will be a VERY hard night for a (nearly) 41 yr old 70 fight veteran. Horn gave Porter a blueprint that Porter could execute better, and I see him beating Manny at this point in time.

I also think Porter beats Thurman if that was to be both guys' next fight!

They have sparred a lot of rounds which always changes fights. I think those sessions at the wildcard probably helped shape Porter as the fighter he is today, especially the mental side.

I think it's a tough ask for Manny at this age, not impossible but tough. I think it could go either way, Manny is a bit more compact, faster and closer to Porters height which might actually help him defend and land in close quarters compared to Spence, I also think Spence hasn't actually got a lot experience at that level.

Just a footnote - I didn't think the Horn fight was a robbery at all, not sure why people think that, it was a close fight, apart from the 9th Manny was the one being hurt more often.

Except that blueprint required a robbery...Horn didn't really beat Pac.

Well, without getting into the "robbery", as the record shows a loss for Pacquiao, what I was trying to say (if you didn't get it) was that Horn showed a style that Manny really struggled with and Porter can do it a lot better imo. Just an opinion, no slight on Manny.
