Manny Pacquiao has confirmed that he's retired from boxing at the age of 42

Spence By KO:beatyourass:
Spence isn’t doing nothing like that. He better beware of those fucking angles PAC coming from. He can’t adjust quick and PAC coming from the sides/angles because his reach is limited. If Spence cant reset or counter he’ll lose rounds. Only KO is PAC overwhelming Spence after he staggers him. Nobody getting the one-shot kill.

ok we will see.
 
Horn was battered over the second half of the fight. Pacquiao lost the fight because he started too late and got outworked early by a younger man, not size.

He meant career wise not head to head, and that's his opinion but he wouldn't be the only one who would believe that. With the exception of Marquez, I believe Pacquiao has preformed better against their other common opponents. A win over a p4p fighter like Spence at the age of 42 may surpass anything Mayweather has done in his career in the eyes of many.
You got to be shitting us with this statement. In this era, Floyd Joy Mayweather is the GOAT. But let me tell you, Pacman ain't beating Spence. Spence kicked off into the GOAT's ass. You just got to know that Spence is a smart fighter. You don't shut down Mike Garcia or Danny Garcia. Pacman might get knocked out.
 
Pacquiao is fighting guys who were 2 and 3 years old when he began his pro career……and beating them.
From a historical viewpoint, if he pulls off this upset I honestly believe his legacy might supplant Floyd’s.
Again, that’s just my opinion.
Just on optics alone, what looks worse?
Floyd giving you freakshow fights against MMA guys and you tubers or Manny still fighting TOP welterweights?
I’m a Floyd apologist!
But I’m also a realist and I have to commend Manny for daring to be even greater than he already is.
You don't put a man ahead of someone who beat him. Boxing don't work that way. From a boxer point of view the loser of the fight will never be ahead in the end.

Which statement?
 
Another Pacquiao fight!

A couple of things said in this video I don't believe. First, I don't believe Spence stopped Crawford in sparring, I know some of you remember the mostly friendly confrontation the two of them had a few years ago. They were both accusing the other of being hurt by different fighters, at no point did Spence say, I smoked you when we sparred. The other thing I have trouble believing is why Spence isn't knocking people out like he use to. Dude is saying that it's because Spence is wearing bigger gloves. I don't think it's possible for fighters to even fight in different glove but even if it was, he wants you to believe that Spence, who has the bigger name wanted the Garcia fight so bad that he would agree to let Garcia wear puncher's gloves while he wears pillows, don't believe it. I know Hagler wanted the Leonard fight so bad that he gave in on some demands like thumbless gloves and ring size but Mikey Garcia ain't Sugar Ray Leonard.

This nigga be making up shit for views.
Don't believe any of that.
Anytime you see a boxing video with WOW, WHOA etc in front of it, 95% time its clickbait.

I didn't listen to the interview just responding to your post. The gloves have to be the same size as far as weight. However, they can fight with any brand they are comfortable with, both boxers do not have to wear the same brand. Some brands are punchers gloves due to the material that's in them like Reyes brand that Manny uses an others like Mayweather use Grant due to how it's padded.

KEITH THURMAN PREDICTS PACQUIAO VS. ERROL SPENCE; GIVES SPENCE "PUNCH COUNT" ADVICE TO BEAT HIM

 
MAX on why MANNY greater than FLOYD ALL TIME P4P!


Max knows his boxing but I disagree and I don't think the comparison to Duran and SRL is valid because Duran actually beat Leonard in the first fight.

Pacquiao is an all time great no question. Being a 8 division champion is a hell of a feat but it is easier to be a champion in this crazy 4 belt era.

If Pacquiao manged to beat Spence, one would gave to revisit the question but for right now I still have Floyd ahead. Pacquiao didn't come up in weight to fight Floyd either. Pacquiao was fighting at welterweight for years so I think Max overemphasized Floyd's physical advantages there.

Some of those titles that Pac won were open titles and not againt champions.
He fought catchweight and held non factor belts.

I think you're wrong on that, I believe both camps decide on what gloves will be used and both fighters have to wear the same type of gloves. Why would any fighter agree to give his opponent an edge by letting them wear gloves that are capable of doing more damage to him than his gloves can do to his opponent?

They do decide on what gloves can be used, that's why they go into each other's locker room an watch when they wrap the opponents hands. Look at the Mayweather Pac fight you will see what I mean. Mayweather wears Grants an Pac wears Reyes. Those are really the 2 top gloves but they have a few others with different characteristics like Winning and Everlast.

You're right, I guess if both camps agree, it can be done.
