MANNY PACQUIAO VS ERROL SPENCE JNR

-

Who wins this welterweig­ht clash and why?

JAY JENKINS

Not yet sold on Spence, he was getting outboxed by Kell Brook until he gassed. “Pac Man” on the other hand is still fast and boxes well. My quess is Pacquiao wins by stoppage in round 10 or 11.

JAMES CARTWRIGHT

Five years ago I would have said Pacquiao, but Spence is the younger, fresher fighter and would get a points win, but it would be a tough challenge for Spence.

SI LOMAX

Even at this late stage of his career, my cash would still go on Pacquiao – he has forgotten more than Spence knows. Pacquiao by late stoppage.

ALBERT AFFELDT

Spence is for real but he is still a work in progress. Pacquiao has been somewhat inactive recently and suffered a serious shoulder injury. If Pacquiao is 75 per cent of his prime self he can still beat Spence.

NICK MYERS

Manny five to seven years ago wins easily, today Errol wins. Spence has shown us a lot already early on. Big things ahead for this kid.

JESSE GRAY

Manny will be all over Errol like a cheap suit.
