    Keith got the outcome he should've wanted. He can fight a winnable, high profile, big money fight and avoid Spence.

    If you need a tune up, fine. Get it over with and fight Manny for the full title.

        Manny is the "tune-up!" Fight the small southpaw, in preparation for the big southpaw!

          Keith's "super world" title should be demoted. That dude disappeared long ago and his title should disappear as well.

            That was a very wise and prudent answer from Pac. At nearly forty years old he understands his limitations as a fighter. At this stage he knows which battles to choose and what battles not to choose.

            He knows he's nearing the end of his career and Thurman is a lot younger, stronger, bigger and a harder puncher; Who would try to impose his will on the much older and smaller man into making it a very physical and fast paced fight.

            Besides, Pac had his prime and has nothing left to prove. This is Keith's prime. He's 29 years old and what ever injury he has there is enough time for it to heal.

              Apology accepted. Glad you discovered the error of your ways.

                I doubt Thurman would return to fight Manny, although that is definitely a proper tune up. Manny is a top 5-7 ww still. But Thurman should get the rust off before fighting a top 5-7 guy.

                How about Manny/Khan with Thurman/Horn on the undercard and the winners fight?
