    That rematch ain't happening! Floyd would be ****** to fight Pacquiao without a proper tune-up (Devon Alexander?), so at the earliest, the rematch would be this winter! If Floyd was going to do it, he would be in camp with Errol Spence Jr. right now!

    I think Manny and Freddie might want to see how Danny Garcia looks before the make a deal. They have been wanting that fight for a long time! They also have wanted Mikey for a long time too! I think they should go with Thurman, but the other 2 are solid too!

      This was just ring rust, off timing. I think the next fight the odds on Thurman will be longer than they should be and so a good value bet.

        Fury looked awful against Seferi and Pianeta and then a couple of months later, he took Wilder to school.

        Thurman is shaking the rust off.

          Let me be clear, I don't think Pacquiao should be going against the top, younger WW's at this point in his clear. However, Thurman look vulnerable and that's why Pacquiao fans want this fight.
          Lopez also looked absolutely huge, much like most of Garcia’s blown up fat fighters

            thurman himself has been calling pacman for a fight! he knows pacquaio is smaller and over 40 years old. notice how thurman isn't calling out spence crawford or porter lol.

              Because a fight with them wouldn't get Keith anywhere near what he'd get for fighting Manny. Pretty obvious choice.

                Everybody pump the brakes!! THURMAN was off over 2 years with injuries. It will take him at least another tuneup to regain his timing and stamina so it's unfair to assess him.

                  IMO, "3rd-person" Thurman hands looked like they were locked in. Rusty, a lil slow and easily a target. 2yrs too long! Needs 2 more tune-ups. Pacquiao wins easily!
