[Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21

[coin-investor]

I hope Manny still has the power and speed that he last showed against Thurman, Spence is another animal that is hard to tame, in Thurman's fight I have confidence in Manny but in this fight, I have a second thought if he can keep up with Spence's speed, power, and dominance in the ring, there's a big size discrepancy and Spence is so great on his last fight while Pacquiao's last fight was two years ago

I disagree though that Spence was great in his last fight, against Danny Garcia.

But I agree about your qualms on Spence here, as you have said, specially in the power department, the Pacman's chin are going to be tested and we don't know if it can hold against Spence, and we all know that Pacman's jaw has broken already and he could get knockout by Spence.

In any case it will be a good fight, an old but very experience fighter against a young and tall which could give Pacman a lot of problem.

[acroman08]

this will be a tough fight for Pacquiao. with Pacquiao's speed I know he can handle himself around Errol Spence but seeing how hard Errol Spence punches Pacquiao will surely feel it and will have trouble taking a lot of Errol Spence hard punches. this certainly will be an entertaining fight. I remember Pacquiao said that he plans to fight twice this year before retiring. I wonder who will be the top contender for him to fight next.

Pacquiao would be fine. Though we might not be able to see an aggressive and entertaining Pacman like we used to, because he might be more careful and mostly in a defensive stance avoiding not to get knocked out.
This is gonna be the biggest fight for Errol and such an honor for him for fighting a boxing legend.
Though Pacquiao needs not to prove anything, but fighting against a younger boxing superstar is such an act of bravery and courage.

If Pacquiao wins this match it will be the biggest achievement of his career, he has beaten a fighter considered to be one of the best welterweights in the new generation, because he has achieved it at the age of more than 40, win or lose he can retire with the big money involved in the fight and Manny getting a big share he doesn't need to fight anymore.

Yep, I think Pacquiao has seen a lot of challenges already, so I doubt that Spence will be different so he will be fine against Spence. Pacquiao will train very hard for this fight, and I would say that this is the biggest fight since Floyd Mayweather.

Errol will give respect to Pacquiao and I don't think there will be trash talking here. And yes, if Manny wins, he will propel himself farther to be one of the greats in welterweight division.

Lets hope that it is but unfortunately he will be busy on his own political campaigns so I expect that his attention will be split up between politics and unto this fight, but I'm hoping that pacquaio will be at his best shape when the bout is on since its so dangerous for him if he's out of shape since remember he's old already and age can affect his game style.

Winning on this match for Manny can be a big exposure on the upcoming election here in my country where rumors are already circulating that he will run as president, this is not his biggest achievement because Manny fight many great boxer already so I don't see that one as the main goal here. The money is always the target here, Spence has a chance to win because he's younger and probably move faster than Manny, though Pacquiao needs to win though.

I remember Pacquiao said that he plans to fight twice this year before retiring. I wonder who will be the top contender for him to fight next.

^ The next contender to fight it could be these boxing fighters, Terence Crawford, Conor McGregor, Ryan Garcia, Keith Thurman, Mikey Garcia.
I remember when Manny Pacquiao once said, he is a faster and strongest fighter, he is very confident to say those lines and I think he did not change of being an aggressive fighter. Nevertheless, in this match it seems Errol Spence Jr will fight a monster on the ring that it is 50-50% that he will able to win, if he wins, that's a cash cow for him.

Many people believe that Spence is the best welterweight boxer in the world, but Pacquiao has never shied away from a real fight and anyone will face him even though his opponent is younger and he always fights against the best and doesn't want to change.
Even though Pacquiao's age is not young anymore, I still believe he can manage the game to stay awake.
And I heard that Pacquiao is in the conversation that he will run as a candidate for President of the Philippines in the next 2022 elections.

[pilosopotasyo]

I like to trust Pacquiao because in his last fight he was very impressive but unfortunately, that was two years and Pacquiao is over 40 years old, we don't know if he still has it while Spence is very strong in his last fight, my heart is for Pacquiao but if I am going t maker a bet Spence is a sound bet for me, I just hope Pacquiao can still stand his ground.

[Cling18]

This was a surprising fight. I thought it will be a match between Garcia and Pacquiao. However, I believe that this fight is something to look forward to but I'll put my bet on Pacquiao because I personally know how dedicated he is when it comes to his matches. It will be a tough fight for Erol Spence because we all know that Manny already knows how to read between the lines inside the ring.

[Sanitough]

Finally, Pacquiao gets the best opponent, is the amount or purse already revealed?

No more speculation because it's final according to OP, the word "signed" means it's already finalized and they are bind into a contract legally.
Hopefully, this would not be like a Fury vs Joshua fight which was already signed but was delayed or canceled.

This is probably the biggest fight of Spence Jr., the undefeated record is at stake here but will be a privilege to fight the legend in the sport.

[suzanne5223]

It was already confirmed just an hour or so ago. I personally want a Mayweather rematch but I guess that ain't gonna happen. At Pacquiao's age, I believe he can still put out a show and be able to showcase his speed and power on the ring. Errol Spence Jr., though an already proven fighter on his own regard, will be having a hard time to keep up with the old man. Still, it's a fight that he will surely cherish for most of his career. I'm seeing Pacquiao as the favorite, but counting out Spence Jr's skill might be a mistake too.

From my own perspective, age is not barriers for Manny if he can agreed to fight Spence Jr and once take on a fighter like Thurman which was said to have a powerful punches but it Mayweather that don't want the fight to push through cause he more after his record and money thats the reason why he chooses to fight people like Jake Paul.

Footing experience, this fight should be an easy win for Manny.

I'm surprised Manny Pacquiao is fighting a lesser known name like Errol Spence Jr.

A bout versus Conor McGregor or a rematch with Floyd Mayweather Jr. would definitely be a bigger payday for Pacquiao.

There seem to be weird politics or business conflicts which are keeping Pacquiao away from some of the bigger fights out there for him.

Its sad how Canelo has so much hype and marketing behind him when GGG beat him twice. Boxing is becoming more like a privileged sport where boxers have to be in with the right people to get the big fights and the big publicity push. Which sucks.

[qwertyup23]

Ever since my father introduced me to boxing, I've been loving the sport as I vividly recall the memories of me and my family watching every Pacquiao match with drinks on the side. I also watch highlights and matches on YouTube of other boxers and Errol Spence Jr is one of those fighters that also caught my attention.

As always, I am rooting for Manny to win but this fight will definitely be a challenge considering the speed, power, and age of Errol Spence compared to him. Despite Manny has silenced all his boxing critiques in his recent matches, this fight will definitely pose a threat to him.

[iTradeChips]

Well, Pacquiao is now in his forties. Though many are somewhat skeptical of a Pacquiao win, much more are confident that he might be able to beat the guy. There are more better fighters suited for Pacquiao but he settles to his fighter who is hardly known by many Filipinos. But of course the fight has been sealed and I would feel that it might be a Pacquiao win. We will see, August is not that far away. It is almost June now and time flies very fast nowadays.

Pacquiao is just a freak of nature, to be able to still fight at such a high level to the point now he is fighting another champion is simply astonishing, he is without a doubt the favorite however probably the best assets that Spence has are his youth and the fact he is only a boxer while Pacquiao is concentrated on many other things.

The only thing I do not like is the fact the fight will take place on August since that is still very far away and I would have liked to see Pacquiao in action sooner than that.

Let us not talk about his age, he beat Thurman which is a young guy, that alone tells us that his age is just his number. Maybe if he can't make it to this fight, then that's that time we will talk about his age.

Both are experienced and it's been 2 years since the last fight with Manny.

Footing experience, this fight should be an easy win for Manny.

I'm for Manny on this fight I wouldn't just ignore the professional record of Spence because he doesn't have a loss and he's got enough experience as well. I wouldn't say that this will be an easy win for Manny but this could also be the same as other matches that he's got before. I'm taking the note that Spence isn't an easy opponent IMHO.
