Manny Pacquiao gives the edge to Errol Spence over Shawn Porter!
Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao will face WBA super world welterweight champion Keith “One Time” Thurman on July 20. The two will chuck knuckles at the MGM Grand, stationed in Las Vegas, Nevada, live on FOX pay-per-view!
Pacquiao has found himself answering the standard fight-week battery of questions from the media. To begin, he fielded the typical questions about camp and how he thought his fight would play-out.
Intermingled into those inquiries, the eight-division world champion was asked about his thoughts on Spence Jr v Porter. The two dangerous welterweights are slated to tangle in the Staples Center on September 28.
The fistic-minded politician has a history with Shawn “Showtime” Porter as a sparring partner in a number of trying camps.
Having proven himself to a useful and skillful fighter, Team Pacquiao thought it a prudent idea to keep the bruising Porter around. Regardless of their history, from the Pacman’s point of view, the edge is going to Errol “The Truth” Spence Jr. Although, not by much.
“Spence and Porter fight, I think Spence has an advantage. Spence has the advantage, but it depends on how Porter prepares for the fight.
“Porter also has a good chance for Spence, it depends on how they prepare.”
When topic of Spence v Porter is brought up, a sizable chunk of boxing fans seem to think The Truth has it in the bag.
Apparently, Pacquiao views the impending showdown as a much narrower affair than most.
