    Paul Williams wouldn't, and Vernon would have his hands full.

    Some fair points made. Styles do make fights but that bum didn't beat Pac. Pac despite fighting in hostile territory dealing with Horns illegal tactics, biased ref and unfortunately corrupt judges was the better man.

    Yep. Horn is a complete bum. Porter is a real world class operator who takes every top operator he's been In with close.

    I think Spence would probably wear Pacquiao down and stop him late. I'm not convinced Pac would be able to take those body blows at this age.

    Porter is not even close to being as dirty as Horn. In fact, Shawn is not very dirty at all. It's not premeditated like Horn's, it's just physicality because he's bum rushing.

    That's exactly how it would play out. Pacquiao would be a real challenge for 6-7 rounds but it would be all down hill from there.

    Y'all will eat your words. Spence is still #1. Styles make fights.

    Exactly, Porter has been in with many of the top welterweights and has lost razor close split decisions. Spence fought a good fight and managed to drop Porter with a shot that would have decapitated many other fighters. Props to Shawn Porter, he is the real deal.

    I don't know who wins now between the current version of Pac or Spence. I still think Spence wins but I'm not as certain as I used to be. The close fight today put doubts in my mind but Porter makes everyone look bad.

    Nobody is outclassing Porter.. He's in your chest 24/7.. You have to make him run into something or it's gonna be a long 12 round fight for anyone in this era..

    I wish we had seen Spence vs Brook pre-Golovkin. Fking Hearn and his money grabbing.

    I do think Crawford beats Spence but it's not off this. Crawford is just better. And Pac is too old for the physicality Spence (and porter) brings.

    Crawford, Spence and Porter easily beat Pac. Pac is done.
