Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Thurman Deal Can Be Done Quick, Says Gibbons

[_Rexy_]

Of course it can be done quick. They’re both with PBC and they’re both WBA champs at 147. There’s actually no reason for this fight NOT to happen if both are 100%

Pac is not the best body puncher but his body punches against Broner did serve him well. Broner was a little hard to hit in the head in the early rounds because he was moving head ridiculously just to avaid Pacs punches but when adjusted and started to tag Broner's body with straight lefts, it changed the complexion if the fight.
Pac just needs to do that against a runner like Thurman to slow him down, score and confuse him. The bigger Thurman will be running once he tatse Pac'e power. He will be running from the small guy🤣

So did Margarito and Clottey.

Another rip off for the consumer peasants.

Fight an undefeated champion is a rip off

Go somewhere and play.

This fight makes perfect sense. It's kind of a good thing that Thurman didn't look dominant against Lopez, otherwise Pac's pr rep probably wouldn't be making this statement. But this is definitely a fight that I want to see happen. An added bonus is that it would clean up the multiple wba belts nonsense.

Arum thinks Pacquiao can beat Thurman too.

“We made the Adrien Broner in just about 10 minutes, so we’ll make the next one nine minutes. There is nothing difficult when you work with Al Haymon. It is smooth sailing in life. He is the best guy you can work in the business.”

Let's Go! Make It Happen! ASAP!

Even when not injured Thurman fights "one time" per year, and Pac can only fight when Philippine senate is in recess... will their 2 short windows even align?

Thurman is officially ranked as the no. 1 welter, talked about on here as the best bla bla bla, if this fight happens and Pac wins, because he will win as long as there are honest judges, then there should be no excuses from anyone.

Pac becomes the best welter across two different decades.

[Nusky]

Thurman beats Pac. Please please make this fight so we can see what old man PAC looks like against a real elite welterweight. Pac might get his old a$$ KO'd. Prove me wrong Mr senator.

Call me crazy but this fight is all sorts of wrong for Pacquaio at this stage of his career. Thurman looked vulnerable this weekend so folks think it's a given fight but it's definitely not.
