And I agree, It won't touch below 2.0 considering how dangerous Spence is for Pacquiao, but many bettors still believe Pacquiao could win this one If he will apply a smart veteran tactics. +2.65 might be the final betting line for the Pacman.
In this forum, yeah there are many users who still thinks Pacman could pulled out this one but I don't think it's enough to sway or even balance the betting odds in favor of Manny.
If indeed Manny will win this one, then lucky are those who bet for him as they will win big just like the fight against De La Hoya and boxing analyst would start praising him for his achievements but they never did praise him before the fight as most of them favored Errol to win.
The odds on deal hoya fight for Manny is pretty much the same.

However, if we compare the past to the present, I think Manny is more recognize today as he has already achieved being an 8 division champion, the only reason why Manny is an underdog is because he is already 42 years old in this coming fight.
Yeah, you can't really compare the odds back then against Oscar. Manny is going up in weight there and Dela Hoya already old is the more recognizable name that time. I do hope though that history will not repeat itself here. Because now it's Manny who is the older, yes he might have the speed and power, but he is facing a more hungrier and young fighter in Errol Spence.
