    pac beats him, thuman is a great figher with amazing skills but he's not on manny's level. here's a video clip of one of manny's pass sparring partner explaining how its like to be in there with pac. some fighters are great but pac is elite.

      Thurman moves, but doesn't MOVE.

      Pac is just too good for him. He's a punch and reset type of boxer/puncher. Pac would destroy his rhythm within the first few rounds.

      And his upper body movement and inside foot movement is too rudimentary to not get embarrassed by Pac.

          Pacquiao would take him to school. Thurman is aspiring to be what Pacquiao is (or atleast was)

          And I'm a huge Thurman fan.

          Period.

            Can Thurman replicate the boxing skills and IQ of Brandon Rios?

              Pac would be the favorite but Thurman has a shot and mainly because Thurman has KO power. Basically you got a guy who has great potential vs a guy with a proven HOF record.

              You can go on and on about how Thurman knocks all these dudes out but Pac is a different animal with a PROVEN track record against other great fighters. What happens when Thurman is getting countered by a manny pacquiao instead of a soto karrass? We don't know how Thurman will react. On the other hand we've seen pac rise up to the occasion against Elite fighters.

                  THurman is promising but has fought no one. Overrated by many on NSB
