    Why must Spence compete in Jr. Middleweight?????? He has no trouble making welterweight. He is strong as hell at 147 and smashes everybody. Why would he move to 154 to fight bigger stronger men when he make weight and fights so well at 147? That would be ******. Ir he had trouble making 147 and was weight drained then he should move up but that is not the case. He is 29 so his growing days are over. He can stay at 147 forever if he wants to.

      After the beating Spence put on Mikey I think he would slaughter Pacquiao. It would end in a KO because Pacquiao won't go into a defensive shell. What will a bad beat down and a KO loss do for his legacy? Now would be a good time for him to retire after this great win.

        I’d just be really worried when he eventually tires, his level visibly slowed against Thurman after around 5 rounds, and he took some clean shots from Thurman. I genuinely dread to think what damage Spence could do in those last 6 rounds. Manny is a tough warrior and would attempt to endure it also.

        Just out of interest, how do you think Pacquiao beats Spence? Outboxes him on the back foot or forces him backwards the way he did to Thurman several times?
        Uses his lateral foot movement, and lands in between his gloves, and spins him all night. Also, Spence is very aggressive, and will give Manny a lot of chances to land on him.

        But then again, Spence's reach and jab can give Manny a lot of problems, but Manny can also counter on top of his jab as well.

        Honestly, this is a tough fight to call, and wouldn't be surprised at either guy winning, and agree, Manny did slow down during the latter rounds. Prime Manny could bring it every second of every round, but this older version has to take more rounds off.

        I'd favor Spence 55/45.

          Brain damage? You know this how? Oh let me guess your an internet doctor. Get out with this nonsense.

            LOL at comparing Mikey Garcia to Pacquiao. Sorry but once Spence tastes Pac's speed/power combo, plans go out the window.

              Lulz, you listen to Pacquaio talk? I know English is his 2nd language but damn, he sounds like he has a hard time thinking and you never hear him say anything very bright.

                He comes from the slums in Kibawe, he’s had little to no education. What do you expect?

                I’m no doctor but I see know signs of brain damage.

                  But that time Pacquiao had youth on his side, this time it’s firmly against him.
                  That’s what makes the Spence fight a million times more exciting. The odds are against Pac. Can he beat em’? If he can, the reward would be phenomenal.

                    Pac s best of era already. Oldest ww champ ever so I'm not sure he can top thurman win.
                    Spence and Crawford didn't fight and beat thurman a former flyweight did.
                    So no point Pac being a martyr.
                    Pac s fought everyone for 20 years. This current trio have not fought each other yet, Pac s started the ball rolling he took responsibikty.
                    That's enough

                      ... ODLH win was truly "for the legacy"...

                      ... a Spence fight, right now, would only be for "huge money", but not for "legacy"... (Pac is 41 yo...)
