Manny Pacquiao: Errol Spence Gives Chance To 'Make My Case' as an All-Time Great

Manny Pacquiao Say the name and you're certain to elicit a response. The vast majority would label him a generational superstar, owing to a championship run that has won him sanctioning body recognition in seven weight classes. Even those who dismiss some of his accomplishments must admire him for pursuing greatness less than six months before his 43rd birthday. His prey this time? Errol Spence Jr . The 31-year-old Texan is undefeated in 27 bouts, has stopped 21 opponents before the final bell, and has defeated five incumbent or ex-champions in his six 147-pound championship contests. Pacquiao, then a flyweight, won his first jewel-encrusted belt when he was 8 years old. Still, the unlikely rivals will meet on Aug. 21 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, where Spence's IBF and WBC belts will be on the line as part of a Fox Sports PPV event that begins at 9 p.m. ET. According to DraftKings' linemakers, the incumbent is a minus-220 favorite, which means a $220 bet on Spence would

News: Spence Jr Says Pacquiao Will Be Passing The Torch To Him

Errol Spence Jr. describes his bout with Manny Pacquiao as a "passing of the torch" event in which the departing superstar will hand over stardom to him. Spence (27-0, 21 KOs) will then be the next PPV star. Errol claims that since Floyd Mayweather Jr. refused to fight him so he could take the torch from him, Spence will take it from Pacquiao (62-7-2, 39 KOs) next month in their battle on August 21st at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Pacquiao rose boxing prominence after taking the torch from Oscar De La Hoya in 2008. Pacquiao was a popular fighter before that bout, but he wasn't the mega-star he became after his eighth-round knockout of De La Hoya. Interestingly, Mayweather Jr decided to retire with an easy fight against Andre Berto in September 2015 rather than facing Spence or Keith Thurman, two of the young lions at the moment who were ready to beat Mayweather and grab his torch/scalp to become the next star. You might say that Mayweather was selfish in no

Errol Spence Jr. Beats Manny Pacquiao Easy – Says Shakur Stevenson

Former WBO featherweight champion Shakur Stevenson believes IBF/WBC welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr will easily defeat Manny Pacquiao in their Fox Sports PPV fight on August 31st. Stevenson believes Spence (27-0, 21 KOs) will win if he does not become careless in the ring against Pacquiao, which is easy for him to do. If you watched Spence's last two fights against Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter, you'd notice that both of those fighters found it relatively easy to nail him with their best shots. Pacquiao, at 147 pounds, isn't a big puncher, so he'll have to land a lot of shots on Spence's chin to knock him out. He's unlikely to be able to pull it off. Pacquiao's last KO came in 2009, against Miguel Cotto, and it was an uncalled for stoppage. Cotto was still fighting back when the referee stepped in from nowhere and called a halt to the fight. Pacquiao's last true knockout came against Ricky Hatton in 2009, but he doesn't count because he was

NEWS: Fighting Words – Pacquiao vs Spence: A Manny-Splendored Thing

When it comes to the best battling the best, the last week has been a mixed blessing. We are only a few days away from Josh Taylor's outstanding win against José Ramirez , a match between one guy who had two of the major world championships at junior welterweight and another who had the other two. Taylor won all four titles and was crowned the undisputed 140-pound champion. We're also coming off the dizzying news that Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua had finally reached an agreement for a massive bout that would establish an undisputed heavyweight champion — only for that match to fall through. An arbitrator concluded that Fury must uphold his previous deal to face Deontay Wilder a third time. So, right before Taylor-match Ramirez's on ESPN on Saturday, Fury inked a deal to meet Wilder again in front of the TV cameras. Then there's the welterweight class. Errol Spence has two world championships and is regarded as the finest fighter at 147 pounds and one of the top fighter
