    Lol, he couldn`t even destroy Josesito Lopez.

    Best guys Thurman destroyed are Soto Karass and old Collazo.

      Lopez gave a good account of himself and had a successful 2 rounds. He won't beat 2-5 nor will he beat 5-10 at welter. He's an extremely limited boxer who compensates with will.

        Why don't you go and lift weights every week for 10-15 years, injure your hand and elbow, then stop for 2 years. Now when you lift weights again for the 1st time will you lift that 225 like it was yesterday? Prob not. Eh but maybe after a few months of it, if you had strength to begin with, it comes back.

        His 2nd fight will be much better. Also he destroys Pacquiao because it's a poor matchup. Thurman can and will box and land powerful shots. Pacquiao not the power puncher he was in the past who can overcome the skill and power. He gets retired if he fights Thurman.

        Pacquiao aint dumb though. He would rather fight Mayweather. He can't beat any of the top guys at WW including Thurman. And if he fights one of them he risk getting seriously hurt. It happened to Adonis Stevenson unfortunately.

        I think maybe he's made enough because there isn't any money fights for him at his age that's worth risking his health. Thurman will kill that guy. Btw he beat Lopez pretty bad. You guys seem to think 1 round of success that didnt even result in a knockdown negates 10-11 rounds of dominance. Clear dominance.

            Garcia and Porter fights were before injury. And it were a close decision fights. Last man Thurman destroyed was Collazo. So I don`t know what makes you think Thurman can DESTROY pacquiao, lol.

              this is the state of boxing today. an injury prone guy takes 2 years off and is still rated No 1. WTF??

                  Yes, sad. From all these guys Thurman has 1 one name on his record, others have none.

                  Pacquiao is man from other times, he fought all top guys from his times. But others have no excuse to keep avoiding each other.

                    Exactly. Manny fought top guys in 5 divisions and his last 20 fights he was a lot smaller then his opponents even broner. idiots want spence and Crawford to fight Manny a 40 year old bantamweight cause they know their heroes are to scared to fight each other

                      Josesito vs Broner
                      Josesito vs Horn
                      Josesito vs Gacia
                      Josesito vs Porter.


                      All of them would be a very good match, a war till the end.
