Manny will beat him! Shakur's southpaw advantage will disappear, and Manny is still faster than him! No, I'm not kidding. There's a reason Errol Spence ducked out of that match. The version of Manny that fought Barrios is still a nightmare to a featherfisted southpaw. The last twitchy awkward southpaw he fought made him cry. This content is protected
While I think this is a ridiculous prediction, I will entertain the idea a little bit. Stevenson struggles when the opponent is able to fight at a slow pace, and Manny is would be a terrible style matchup for Stevenson.
I would actually like Pacquiao to win, just makes Mayweather and the previous generation look superior if Pacquiao pulled it off
I'll go for Shakur and i don't even like him. Manny needs to retire already he was finished when Ugas beat him.
Your predictions are accurate most of the time but I just don't see it. Hope I'm wrong but Barrios was over a year ago. Pacquiao is forty-seven; a year out is more like two or three where speed and reflexes are concerned at that age. I'm just not sure that Manny is close to what he was even a year ago for Barrios and Shakur will definitely have home cooked advantages across the board.
Manny Pacquiao is my second favorite fighter of all time behind Ali and just ahead of Roberta Duran, but he should not take this fight. He could take it for the money, of course, but he has no chance of winning it. He would lose every single round and there’s a good chance that he suffers an accumulation stoppage later in the fight.
While I'm inclined to agree, this is exactly what we were all saying before the Barrios match. Manny is unpredictable as hell.
I'd rather watch Pac vs Floyd (as boring as it will be). Manny in his late 40s has no business against defensive boxer in his prime.
Pac is to old. He couldn't pull the trigger against Ugas. Stevenson is faster and better than Ugas. I don't want to see it. There are so many other fights Stevenson can make.
