Manny Pacquiao and Keith Thurman in Advanced Talks For A July Showdown

[Bjl12]

This is a great fight. I would predict Pacquiao would win by U.D, and working the body a lot more.

Thurman has been hurt at least 2-3 times to the body...and in each of those situations he was hurt to the point of nearly being KO'd

Winner vs Spence/Porter! Then unify vs Crawford would b heavenly

I'll gladly post a picture of my betting stub if it's close to even money.

Pacquiao is ALL WRONG for Thurman. Thurman likes to pitter patter punch and move. He did it against Lopez, Collazo, Danny, and Porter. And Lopez and Collazo both severely hurt Thurman to the point of flat-out running away...and that was BEFORE he went on sebatical.

Pacquiao, even at his advanced age, will get to Thurman and will hurt him. Pac has the veteran craftsmanship to finish an injured fighter. Also, Keith doesn't have much of a chin. He's been on ***** street a handful of times in his career and was only able to finish because of how bad/limited his opponents were.

I'll gladly collect money from people like you though

Would be happy if ur right, i love pacman. Good luck with ur bets buddy

The writing is clearly on the wall. Spence just fought in front of almost 50k people vs garcia. The money fight for pac right now is spence aside from floyd which isnt happening. So why fight thurman for way less money? Ill tell u why, Team pac understands he has no shot to win vs spence and since thurman is under al, its the smart move by team pac because he actually has a chance to win the fight vs thurman and again no shot vs spence.

This doesnt surprise me at all. Smart business decision by team pac

Wind the clock back and Manny was all over Thurman as soon as Keith looked like crap in his return fight, smart business is an after thought, picking the easiest title fight was priority, the money fight is Spence but they know they lose that and have a chance to beat Thurman, but they also can get the back fire effect as Keith gets motivated and gives him boxing lesson.

I bet Keith studies Floyds blue print like a surgeon watching another show how, just keep turning him and control range with a long reachy jab.

I feel Thurman will out box Manny and that the higher class and bigger fighter will show Mannys has been fighting B+ level guys to get here.

Agreed, i know they say "Boxers" don't like it to the body. But damn! Thurman literally can't take a body shot. If Pac gets to his body then i can see him stopping keif..

I love Pacman, it was around his peak I turned from a casual into a hardcore fan and he played his part, but it's Thurman's time now mang. #1 baby

Lockey baby

Thurman's time?

Thurman's ass will retire before pacman

so why fight thurman then? if that's the case, shouldnt pac be asking for a b-c level guy?

Pac has underrated body punches too

He hurt a lot of ppl to the body

He just doesnt do it enough

[Southpawology]

Damn man...Pacs resume is DEEEEPPP. Imagine if he fights porter and spence after thurman goddd damn!
