    Thurman is good and Pacquiao is past prime but he is still damn good. He is a little too good for Thurman and wins a fairly close ud. Both guys are punchers and either could win by KO if they land a big punch and follow it up well. I think Pacquiao would be the more likely one to score the KO because his punches and combinations are faster and shorter.

      Pacquaio would be in over his head

      this would be the first real welterweight he has faced since Miguel Cotto years ago


      difference is, Thurman is not coming off a beating nor is he psychologically damaged

      Thurman has real power, has decent skills and wont be on the back foot against Pacquaio

      Pac-Man gets kayoed in the late rounds


      no more smoke and mirrors...I doubt he can beat any elite welterweights not named Bradley

      He isn't consistent enough with his jab, defense or head movement to try and outbox a bigger, stronger, just as fast guy with more power

          Thurman beats Pacman, possibly puts him to sleep. Pacman can't live off of things he did 5 years ago. One time can box and punch. He has a very vast repertoire. And Pacman is older and less energetic than he was. Times are changing.

                1. Keith doesn't like southpaws
                2. Open for a left
                3. Movement troubles him



                Manny has all 3.
                ADD has stamina problem's to the list
                it all comes down too if Pac is a shot fighter
