    In all seriousness I'm a bit worried for his health- post boxing. Not like he has been some wonder defensive genius. Don't want to listen to a punch drunk Pac.

    I can't forsee him winning this at all. If he did somehow, my lord. this would change my mind on not ranking him as a top 10 of all time.
    His era- easily makes it.

    I call this the Roberto Duran legend status, where he is expected to lose these big fights at his age but if he pulls it off then it enhances his legacy. Only a few great fighters ever get to this stage.

    Manny Pacquiao takes swipe at Floyd Mayweather ahead of Errol Spence clash

    Manny Pacquiao has declared that Errol Spence doesn't need help from Floyd Mayweather, claiming that his opponent is a better fighter than the 50-0 legend.

    The usually soft spoken Pacquiao is returning to the ring for a world title bout with Spence in Las Vegas on August 21, and he has previously expressed interest in a rematch with Mayweather.

    Mayweather v Pacquiao in 2015 is still the highest grossing boxing event in history, and couldn't even be eclipsed by the American's fight with Conor McGregor in 2017.

    And in the lead-up to his exhibition bout with Logan Paul last month, Mayweather said he was going to offer advice to Pacquiao's upcoming opponent Errol Spence, having been in there with him in the past.

    And asked if Mayweather had been in contact, Spence told reporters at a press conference yesterday that he had yet to get a call, before Pacquiao interrupted him to say that he is in fact a superior fighter.

    “I don’t think Errol needs advice from Floyd Mayweather," Pacquiao said. "I believe that Errol is a better fighter than Mayweather.

    "Errol can teach Floyd how to fight toe-to-toe."

    It comes after 50-0 boxing legend Mayweather aimed a sly jab at his former opponent in the post-fight press conference for his exhibition with Paul.

    "Pacquiao at his age [42], which is sad, has to fight," he said. "I'm financially set, and I want to make everybody hear this.

    "You're going to hear a lot of people say 'Floyd needed to do this', no, I'm well off.

    "Every property that I have is paid for, my jet is paid for, all my cars are paid for, I own billion-dollar buildings, I own so much property, I've steadily invested in many different things.

    "I'm invested in the tech world, I've made a lot of smart investments."

    Pacquiao won't be overly focused on his feud with Mayweather over the next six weeks as he prepares to fight Spence for the world welterweight title.

    “I don’t want to be overconfident, because Errol is too good of an opponent, he explained at the media event. "His determination and passion for the sport is always there.

    "When I say I’m going to do something, it’s real and from the heart, it’s not to impress anybody.

    “I had started training in the last week of May in the Philippines., so when I got here to Los Angeles, I was just continuing what I was doing.

    "It’s good for me to have the rest that I’ve had the last two years. I’ve been boxing since I was 12 years old until now.

    "When I went back to training, I was still hungry and dedicated."

    The bout will be one of the highlights of the summer boxing calendar, especially with the recent postponement of Tyson Fury v Deontay Wilder 3.

    It goes down on August 21 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, and will go head-to-head with WWE Summerslam, which takes place in the nearby Allegiant Stadium.

    If that's his response, then sounds true he does need the money.

    Terence Crawford vs Shawn Porter officially ordered by the WBO with Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence already set to take place next month

    The WBO have officially ordered Terence Crawford to defend his WBO welterweight world title against Shawn Porter.

    Following his knockout of Kell Brook last year, it’s been unclear what fight would come next for Crawford.

    The American became embroiled in spat with his promoter Bob Arum as both were frustrated over his current situation.

    Crawford is a three-weight world champion and widely regarded as one of the top three pound-for-pound fighters in the entire sport today.

    However, he is yet to face a fellow truly world class fighter in their prime who comes close to his level.

    The vast majority of the big-name fighters at welterweight today are signed with Al Haymon’s PBC, who rarely do business with Arum’s Top Rank.

    The super-fight all boxing fans want to see between Crawford and Errol Spence looks further away than ever for this reason.

    Spence has been able to face the top names at welterweight also signed with PBC such as Shawn Porter, Mikey Garcia and Danny Garcia.

    Now, he’s even secured his biggest fight yet against Manny Pacquiao on August 21.

    With fighters such as Porter out of his reach, Crawford has had to settle for facing lesser-known opposition and so been unable to generate big PPV numbers – part of the reason for the spat with his own promoter.

    Now though, the WBO have thrown him a lifeline by ordering the bout with Porter.

    Both parties have 30 days to negotiate, or the WBO will set a purse bids hearing with the split decided as 60/40 in the champion’s favour.

    Crawford and Porter are friends outside the ring, but have recently said they would put this aside to fight.

    Now we will see if they can force boxing’s politics to one side and give fans a fantastic welterweight title fight to look forward to this year.

    I predict Crawford vs Porter will be contender for FOTY.


    Manny at this stage is an anomaly. Not sure what to expect from a 42 year old who has engaged in some serious wars. Father time has been eluded by very few. Leonard, Whittaker, Jones Jr, Hopkins, DLH. Lennox Lewis came oh so close!


    Pac wins he wants Crawford? Man that would make him a top 10 ATG. No question about it!

    Curious to see how Crawford will handle Porter's headfirst rushes. I swear if I see Porter get KTFO'ed... I'll record the fight and watch it every now and then. He's a nice enough guy... but I can't stand that style of (cough) "boxing." To me, it's a great "go-to" when you don't have the boxing skills or talent to compete in a clean, esthetically-pleasing boxing match.

    Go BUD!!
