Hope there is a decent undercard. Don’t want to pay too much for this fight.

I hope it's Benavidez vs. Dirrell! I would love for "Boots" Ennis to make an appearance this card too! He's the best prospect @ 147! It would be great exposure for the future of the division!

Nah 100% pressure is on Thurman. This a win/win for Manny just for taking this fight

Welp, this is where Pacman's recent rebirth ends . Thurman is gonna move and counter all night long.

The only thing Thurman wins in this bout it money. If he loses to Pacquiao, it seriously damages his career. If he barely beats Manny, people will question his abilities. If Keith destroys many or completely dominates Manny, people will say he beat an over the hill fighter. But Thurman will have a lot of money to console him.

First Pacquiao fight I'm excited since the FMJ fight.

The two are not on their best moment still I thnk their styles are gonna make for an entertaining fight.

Pacquiao by UD.

Thurman isn't Broner and watching a once great 40 year old being cannibalized isn't entertaining. If Freddie Roach cares about Manny he'll end it like Virgil Hunter.

Senator Pacman vs Run Time Thurman.. IS ON!

One thing to keep an eye on is that this should get rid of another WBA "regular" belt.

If the WBA really intends to phase those out then they shouldn't bring it back after this fight. And if they do then fans and media should loudly let them hear about it.

I hear they are bringing in the intergalactic, interstellar, galaxy class, solar systematic, global, intercontinental, oceanic, transcontinental, Mexican, Americas, island pacific regular belt.

I don’t see Thurman cannibalizing Pac, not even a 40 years old Pac. Once he feels Pac’s speed and power, he wouldn’t fight toe to toe. It’s a 50-50 fight but I believe it’s Pac who would retire Thurman and not the other way around.
