    If you'd told me a year or two ago I'd be not very confident who'd win between Keith & Manny I'd have thought you were being funny with me, but here we are today & this feels very 50/50ish & I'm leaning Manny's way.

        This bout should serve as gauge on just how much mileage and wear and tear that Manny Pacquiao has left in the gas tank. If Keith Thurman loses to a 40 and half year old Manny Pac, then he should seriously ponder retirement.

        If not, then he'll be one step closer to gatekeeper status and subsequently a stepping stone for young and rising prospects.

        In any case, I am expecting a hotly contested and highly competitive championship bout between these two and also the Porter vs Spence title unification bout.

          Honestly, I favor Manny just a bit. I didn't think I would say that but since Thurman's inactivity and Lopez fight, I think Pacquiao really has a shot.

            SOME welters are. Not all. Case-in-point:

            "Cojones" is the proper spelling, one. Two, I would have agreed had Manny not specifically and blatantly excluded Errol Spence and Jeff Horn from that survey. Regardless of what you think of Horn. IT's a duck on both.

            He's only challenging Thurman because Keef was getting beat from pillar to post by Lopez.

              I mean this will be on the prelim card before the PPV fight. But I'm saying what do you mean it is weird to announce the UC fight before the main event? Technically neither have OFFICIALLY been announced yet.

                I was feeling that way but I think Keef got the rust knocked out of himself. Maybe he’ll reshape for this one against the Legend

                  I don't know what to make of this Thurman looked like a shadow of himself in the Lopez fight maybe he is cashing out
                  Same. I'm a P a c t u r d but this will be a very tough fight, for both.
