    Being weight drained? Having a broken eye socket?
    Danny would knock Mikey the **** out

    Now you’re just acting like a fanboy. Kell weighed in at 146.5, same as always.

    Spence broke the opposite orbital as GGG. The orbital that GGG damaged was a nonfactor.

    Mikey beat Lipinets. Lipinets knocked out Peterson, who arguably deserved the win over Danny. Claiming that Danny would knock Mikey out is silly.

    Yes. And he always had to cut to get there
    So a damaged eye socket was a completely none factor in the fight? FOH
    So guy A beat guy B who didn't, but almost, beat guy C so he couldn't KO guy A? We both know that's not how boxing works

    Danny would most definitely beat Mikey, if he comes to fight he sleeps, if he comes to run, he loses a UD

    You can chop my post up, but you’ve said nothing at all. Brook was the man at welterweight, not 154 or 160. Spence made him quit like Joshua. Deal with it.

    Mikey would be a slight favorite over Danny.

    Overrated by some, underrated by others, and rated just about right by yet another faction of observers.

    Spence Pacquiao should happen after Spence porter

    Fanboys **** off you guys had no mercy while pac obliterated old mosley and pac was favored to win that fight

    Look I know Pacquiao dosent need to prove anything to anyone. We get that

    However don't be hypocrites manny beating on old man Mosley. pac was favored to win

    But Spence wants to fight pac and you guys bring out protective custody.

    Whether pac wins or loses against Spence hes still is atg nothing changes that .

    Now quit being protective custody

    And start acting like true boxing fans

    Yes I want Spence Crawford damn right I do

    But if I cant get that I want the next best thing in line

    Spence vs pac

    Solid points, solid post. For me belts generate a lot of conflict. Some here swear by it, others say who cares...

    Again I think in time much of this will be very difficult to prove, whereas 30 years + ago, it was kinda easy to see who blew someone in the dust because there was only 1 or 2 belts then.

    I favor those who wanted to leave no doubt they blew people away by saying I got ALL the belts, how can someone 30 or more years from today disprove such, let alone today?

    MY best example of how old I guess I am, is when a young Mike Tyson was on the Joan Rivers show, she asked him now that he beat Berbick what's next?
    Tyson said, when I win the next 2 fights for titles, it will be like a tournament. The winner gets to fight Spinks. That will be me. So there will be no doubt who the HW champ is.

    4give me for being old fashion. That's my criteria. I can't over rate a boxer who wants to unify. Key word unify. No fighter makes my ATG TOP 10 if they can't unify, let alone don't try.

    Last word on the over rated. If Thurman was the man on this website, then no, Pac isn't being over rated for what he did. But for those who long question if Thurman was good. For those who questioned if he is the kind of fighter that can come back after a layoff of 2 fights in 3 years, injury prone, IMO they have every right to say Pac is being over rated. Giving way too much credit for beating someone that hadn't prove he was still a force.
