I think I’m gonna bet on Pacquiao to win, he’s looking good value. I know he’s older now but you don’t lose your boxing brain, he’s still so fast too, one of the greatest ever.

This match will be the most awaited match by boxing fans in the world, especially Manny Pacquiao fans, because as far as I know Pacquiao hasn't competed in a long time so many doubt his current condition, especially when he has to face a boxer who is in pretty good shape with an unbeatable recordsince his debut in 2012, moreover Spence Jr until now has held two belts namely IBF and WBC.
Looks like the match will be a pretty tough match for Pacquiao in maintaining his reputation as one of the best boxers in the world today.

Well seems legit that politics is part of this fight because this very moment Manny Pacquiao is making news in Philippines in regards to His stand for the political agenda now.
meaning this is part of the plan, for Him to come back fighting and also for His political career move.

Pacquiao should've stayed away from politics, it'll tarnish his reputation as a good person in the eyes of many people.
Politics is a dirty business, and it will never become distant that he'll probably play the dirty business too considering the level of education he had, thus political advisers may take advantage of his weaknesses.
Now, he's making the worse move for running the high office (I'm not quite sure, but I think he will).

Boxing and personal business should've been better for him.

Pacquiao career is in the twilight and he is helping people ever since, he will eventually retire from boxing and become a politician, because it is his calling, his reputation as a politician has never been tarnish, he is not involved in any corruption he is very much well known in giving a share of his wealth, he uses his position to help people alleviate their lives if you check his life and you are his follower, you'll know that. 

That's true, there is no question about his personality as he came from a poor family and he is kind now that he has a lot of money to share, but the question is how can he run a country, is his knowledge and experience enough already to be a successful president?

I bet a lot of Fiiipino people would look for a better candicate.

We do have recommendations and suggestion in mind but those would be just good inside of our heads because if he really intent to run for presidency then no one can really stopped him in doing so despite of the possible criticisms that he would get then he wouldnt just mind off if he's really dedicated and believing that he would win such position which i can say to be impossible to happen and i agree that he should have stayed on where he is as of this moment.

Why would he stay away, he is already a senator and it's just normal for a person who has the money to pursue his ambition, that is his ambition, it's either we support him or not, it's up to us voters. But, I disagree that it will tarnish his reputation as him being a politician is honest, but I would not vote for him as I think he is not capable enough to be a President.

You'll understand what I am talking about once he miraculously win the election as a president.
Yeah he is the senator, and If you have heard his latest proposal for the boxers' benefits amidst the pandemic, you'll probably think twice what worse would he's about to do when he's the president.

He might have the good and honest intention, but I'll said it again. Politics is a dirty business.

Man, who said he's not helping people?
Who said his reputation "has been" tarnished?
There's a difference between "has been" and "it will".

So, what do you think is he capable to run as a president? Because that's gonna be his next "Calling"

This site is really not popular in the forum. If I may suggest, better wait for other reputable sportsbooks here to list this fight. Definitely, they will list this match because of the popularity of both fighters. By the way, the link you posted above, is not even loading from my end.

There's one here that posted their odds for this match . At least this bookie is a lil bit familiar in the forum.

So just like as suggested above then its better to wait up a little bit and look for possible known bookies to offer this line.

I bet a lot of Fiiipino people would look for a better candicate.

They wont be risking out the future of their country into a certain Boxer without having much knowledge on how to run a whole country.

Yes, he's filthy rich and a good man but that wont be enough to convince out people to vote for him as a president.There might be some few numbers
but the community wont really be that dumb on entrusting it into someone which politics isnt his specialty.

Towards the upcoming fight of Spence and Pacquiao, Spence is on his prime and Pacquiao is on the verge of retirement so i can see some chances for Spence to win.

Of all of his fights, this will be the only fight that he has a huge number of his countrymen cheering against him. because he said something about the current president which lead him to gain much hatred from his people. now that his fight is close, every word that will come out of his mouth needs to be good because if he does it again, I mean, if he says something bad about the president again, more and more of his supporters will become history for him.

I have no comment on the issue of Manny Pacquiao running for president or anything.

The fight between Manny Pacquiao and Errol Spence Jr will be interesting to watch, and Spence is one of the best welterweight boxers in the world right now and not an easy opponent for Pacquiao, and Spence is unbeaten so far and is also younger than Pacquiao.
although many liked Spence because he was stronger and taller,
and it will not be an obstacle for Pacquiao and has become a regular thing for him because of his stature that is not tall and still able to beat his opponent.

People doubt that he can't win against Thurman,  and now they still double Pacquiao against Spence Jr.

What would people think if Pacquiao would beat the rest 2 undefeated.

Pacquiao at 40's  beat
1 Thurman
2 Spence
3 Crawford,

that should be big news that will be written in the history of boxing.

Pacman still got some left in the tank, and if I were Spence I will not take Pacquaio lightly like what others did, they thought he can't land a punch but Pacman early living make her body last long, and now that he got lots of money, he took care of his body, almost everyone who meets Pacquiao in the ring experience first hand the power, spence should take the fight seriously.

He is a well-oiled machine, he always takes care of his body so age is just a number for him. He won his last fight in a split decision, so we might still see it again Spence, if he loses, I still believe that it's gonna be an entertaining fight and he will never back down, he always gives an opponent a serious fight.

No doubt about that because he proved many times that he is one of the greatest boxers in the world if not the greatest. At his age now, he is still not afraid to fight for the best fighters in the world, it clearly showed that he is born as a warrior and will always be a warrior.

he like the odds that he is an underdog, we should like it too as fans.

Pacquiao is a good fighter and he always give his best during the fight so even at his age, he can still be good at the court but let’s not expect too much from him. I know Pacman will won on this match for some purposes though spence is also a good fighter but its not time for him to win against Pacman, it will be an exciting match again.

I'm sure Spence are not going to take Manny lightly, he knows that. Manny is a legend and has so many experienced. And even if Manny is in his 40's he has proven that he can still fight toe to toe with the best, including Spence himself.

Maybe he just want to psyche himself with those statements. But Manny are not affected by it, he will surely laugh, but inside, Pacquiao mindset is very different.

[goinmerry]

Are the odds for this fight already released? If the margin is just slight or at least 1.2, then we can consider this match has no underdog.

But even the odds were now released and the margin isn't that different, I still don't consider the match has underdog. We all know the capability of these 2 boxers especially Pacquiao where age doesn't become an issue since he entered his post-prime career.

Pacquaio is always a serious player who are too focus so he can win the match, his age is just the number and he will prove it on this match. Trash talking is normal, and Spence should not be complacent because he is fighting a world champion so he must be serious too. Can't wait for this to happen, but Pacquiao is still busy dealing with the politics, I hope he gets enough training before this match because he need to be healthy to avoid any health conditions.

[sempak]

This is a great fight a young and undefeated Errol Spence Jr vs legendary Manny Pacquiao. I think Spence Jr have some pretty solid shots if Manny would be able to absorb his punches he could won the match with the agility and the ability of Manny Pacquiao to throw punches I think Manny can win we all know that Manny Pacquiao is a veteran boxer and probably he knows what strategies he's going to use against his opponent.

That is the big question, can Manny's chin still hold? we all know that Marquez has broken it already. But Thurman hits Manny in the face, and yet Pacquiao didn't break down and ask for more. So it will be interesting if Spence can hit Pacquiao and how will Manny react.

And how about Spence? what if it's Manny's turn and hit him with that perfect left? How is he going to response if he felt Manny's power. So this is still a intriguing match up and Manny has a chance to win.
