Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao-Keith Thurman: Should We Get the Ball Rolling?

[mathed]

If Thurman calls out Pacquiao the excuse will be "arum won't let him", that's what it always is. That's why fighters don't bother calling him out. But Pacquiao has shown that excuse is bull****, all those bull**** fights people didn't want to see. Bradley 2 & 3, Algieri, Vargas, Rios, Clottey, Margarito that were blamed on Arum, when Pacquiao could have fought whoever he wanted.

Where is Floyd in that equation? Oh yeah, that would throw some shade on your narrative.....carry on.

What about Floyd? Pacquiao ducked that fight refusing testing. He ducked again in 2012 before Mayweather went to prison, Arum needs to build a stadium though, need 6 months for a cut to heal though. Pacquiao has been hiding behind Arum all the damn time. "up to my promoter", well that was a lie.

see... there you go again with the bias. what's wrong with Bradley 2-3, Margarito and clottey?? Pac lose controversial decision to bradley so it make sense to rematch him, Clottey was good match-up at WW at THAT TIME, Margo match was a good fight, it was speed vs size thing, i was marvel at pac's courage to fight margo at 150 just look at the size different when their fight. and pac want to fight Margo, i see some article about pac want to go toe to toe with Margo several years before the fight, i thought he was delusional.

As for other fights you mention i got no problem with that, because the way i see it super star like pac or floyd has earned that kind of fights. i certainly got no complain when floyd fought berto or guererro.

is the same in the case of Loma and floyd's boy toy(i forgot his name). i agree with many floyd's supporter that Floyd boy toy need some more cab drivers to sharpen up his skill eventhough he already held abc belt, i have the same opinion with loma since he only have 7 fights in his resume, but floyd's supporter give loma no pass. Larry even made ****** analogy about "swimming in the deep" about it.

This is a winnable fight for either. If Thurman fights the same way he fought Bundu, Pacquiao with UD dat **** all day along.

If Thurman fights Pacquiao like he fought Guerrero, Pacquiao is getting KO'ed.

What's wrong with them? People wanted to see other fights at the time, but the excuse was "Arum won't let him fight". That excuse was bull****.

[Lester Tutor]

well in my opinion pac doesn't have too. his legacy already set, he clearly want to cash-out chasing the most lucrious fight possible and he earned that right. at other hand there arum want to match him to his young talents.

what i have problem is you pressuring pac to fight thurman, only pac not thurman. isn't the young one job to chase the glory??

your bias against pacquaio is really getting old and very boring.

Rios...Algieri, Bradley, Vargas, Marquez...

Seasoned Welterweights clearly...

How can you blame Boxing writers to not write the obvious?

Stop being a pu$$y... as if Boxing Writers protected Bhop to stay away from Shumenov or Kovalev at such an age.

Justifying Horn as a "young talents" is ******. Why do u think such an article exists...

[Bronx2245]

Yes please! Get the ball rolling ASAP! Pacquiao vs. Thurman! Make it happen!

[Manic Shot]

Pay the man 20 mil, vs Thurman

[Reloaded]

Manny beats the brakes off of Thurman. They all say they are ready to take out the aging legend until they step in the ring and realize they can't handle the speed.

And who is stepping in the ring JWWs like Jessie Vargas. Manny WILL NOT fight a prime top WW that's already been proven so I don't know who the fck your talking about because Manny has not fought a top full blown WW in over 7 years, I know why .
