    The speed difference will trouble Thurman bad. I think Pac would do well if he could get Thurman to be the aggressor.

      thurman's power is good enough to shock anyone at 147.

      but in terms of speed and skill he isn't anywhere near pacquiao.

        Of course it would if he lands. Thurman's huge and hits hard.

          Already been said a few times but Thurman could put anyone in the division to sleep with his power. If Marquez can KO Manny the way he did then obviously Keith could too with a flush shot. That being said I'd still take Manny to win this fight by a clear decision if it were to happen anytime soon. I can't wait til Keith gets in the ring with some higher quality competition so we can see just how dangerous he really is.

            No, I think it's the other way around.

              If Thurman could find him, then yes he could but if Pac decides to box, then it's going to be very difficult but not impossible to put him on ***** street because Manny is too fast and has too much hand and foot speed for One time.

                Yea Thurman's over hand right has great power

                But that is the absolute last punch you want to throw at a guy 2 inches shorter. Let alone an unorthodox southpaw like Pac. I think this would be a very interesting fight but obviously if they fought today I would go with Pac. With his punch output, power and speed from unpredictable angles, Keith would have to show me a performance I havn't seen out of him yet

                  This right here. The speed plus in and out will be too much for Keith. There's levels to this, I don't know why some people is acting like pac has never face a puncher or hasn't been hit by one.

                  The ko from marquez would have put anyone out and half of it is because manny was coming in, double the impact. Thurman is a good puncher but so is manny. The key to victory for this fight is getting there first, who's gonna land first, and I think that goes to manny.

                    Thurman should be fighting at 160 doe. Let's see where his power goes then.

                    Of course a fighters power isn't as strong going up. Pluck Pacquiao back at LW and he'd be sending guys flying again

                      Negative, David Diaz said its not the power its the speed that bothered him.

                      Pacman hits hard enough but he is not a one punch guy he is a flurry accumulation destroyer.
