Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Wanted Best Available Guy in Thurman, Says Gibbons

since you think i made that up lol --

"Pacquiao-Garcia is by no stretch of the imagination a turd-oozing craptacular. Garcia has come up short in recent bouts against fellow high-end welters and has frustrated with an overall lack of offensive output, but the Philadelphia-born-and-raised Puerto Rican has elite-level skills, a solid resume, and a name that still draws TV ratings and puts asses in seats. He’s also still in his physical prime and if a main stage showcase against Pacquiao doesn’t light a fire under his ass, nothing will (although many said the same thing about Adrien Broner before he went through the motions in a snoozer against Pacquiao back in January).

In short, Pacquiao-Garcia is good. It’s just not Pacquiao-Spence or Pacquiao-Thurman good. And it’s certainly nowhere near as meaningful as either of those fights.

So, what do the fans root for in this possible final act of the Manny Pacquiao show? An old-timers’ mega-money night of legends against Mayweather or a closing number against a young buck in Garcia whose star is a bit tarnished?"

If you read that article, you know why he didn't pick DSG! He did change his mind on Thurman, which is funny, b/c he changed AFTER Garcia sparked Granados! He waited, made an assessment, and came out with Thurman! SMART MAN!

bob didnt wanna make pac vs crawford because the risk is there! pac is bob's cash cow and manny is leaving TR. why the fvvvck would arum give manny a pass? what happen to bob arum controlling manny?

what happen to manny being a puppet to arum? you see, you cant go back on what yall been saying for years now just to fit your agenda. arum put pac in with marquez to get killed, arum didnt care when he made pac vs margarito (which i felt is the fight that took pac's prime) and now arum is looking out for manny's health even though pac is gonna leave him to go join the rival?

Here's what happened, and what made Manny finally cut the strings:

Pacquiao Threatens to Sue Top Rank Over Matthysse Fight, More

Pacquaio announced through his Instagram account that he intends to initiate legal action against Top Rank. According to Pacquiao’s posts, he will sue Top Rank for failing to pay him his portion of the revenue from American streaming rights to his knockout victory over Lucas Matthysse nearly two months ago...

Pacquiao also charged in his Instagram post that he’ll sue Top Rank and “all other parties” for trying to restrict television and streaming rights to his future fights. British star Amir Khan (33-4, 20 KOs), who’s represented by Matchroom Boxing’s Eddie Hearn, is a potential opponent for the Filipino legend’s next fight...

Here is Pacquiao’s entire post to an Instagram account that has 4.3 million followers:

Congratulations and good luck to TRBoxing and @ESPN on your 7-year partnership agreement. I know both of you have been very busy finalizing the deal. However, I have not received the US rights payment for my July 15 fight against Lucas Matthysse that was broadcast on ESPN plus. Therefore, I am initiating legal proceedings against Top Rank and all other parties based on the non-payment and attempt to restrict my future rights. Thank you.

Haters will keep denying it. Pac would have beat crawford if arum made the fight.

No ne is saying he "ducked" DSG, just that he chose Thurman after the DSG fight!

Danny Garcia: I Hope I Didn't Scare Manny Pacquiao Away

Danny Garcia did what he needed to do to re-enter the welterweight title picture on Saturday.

But Garcia is now worried he showed too much during his dominant seventh-round technical knockout against Adrian Granados at Dignity Health Sports Park.

"I hope I didn’t scare Manny Pacquiao away,” Garcia said in the ring after the win

https://www.boxingscene.com/danny-ga...o-away--138227

Again, Thurman was a good choice, and he's "The Most Proven Welterweight," but he's not the best (Spence/Crawford) and he did have the worse performance of all the WWs in the PBC in 2019! That's just facts!

you just said he changed his mind after seeing what danny did to granados. you cant have it both ways bruh. if manny was looking for easy fights or guys coming off bad performances then why didnt he pick mikey garcia???

[IceTrayDaGang]

If you're gonna post a link, then there should actually be a link! Even your post says "Terence Crawford is unmentionable.." LMAO! Stop it now! Pacquiao knows who are the best WWs, and both were available! Spence vs. Porter should be announced soon, but Crawford has nothing! Again, Thurman is "most proven!" Just be happy with that!
