It may have been but honestly, if Pac had to pick between Thurman, Spence Jr. and Crawford... I mean cmon now. Crawford and Spence Jr. have been looking like nothing but fire in each of their fights for the most part.

Thurman just comes back, looks rusty as f**k, and out of all his attributes, he's not great at any. His speed isn't bad but it isn't blinding. His power isn't bad but he hasn't had a KO in years or even dropping guys often as he used to. His boxing ability is probably his best aspect, but Manny probably feels he can out hustle him with that too.

I'm not saying Manny wins this because we are talking a 40 year old here. I just think, when you look at the alternatives of who Manny could of been in the ring with, he has the best chance of the big 3, to win against Thurman.

Bro, a 40 year old Pactits is more than capable of beating Queef time

Why are people trying to make this a cherry pick conversation? Pac is 40 with70 fights under belt. Keith
has only had 29 fights and is fresh and in prime and bigger. Thurman.literally has all advantages. He's still unbeaten. Unbeaten fighters don't know how to lose.

Keith is favou rite. Let's not twist this. Pac is taking risks for a legacy fight. Keith is more in it for money

EXACTLY!!! Props to Pac big-time

I think this is a 50/50ish fight, but all my rooting interest is in Manny. And it gots everything to do with Thurman's remarks concerning the Spence fight where he keeps pushing this fight out further & further & talks about it like its his MayPac fight or some comical sh^t like that. This flute playing mfer needs to get outta the way & to quit guarding his spot so hard. Spence been calling this fake ass Superfly looking mofo since he was more prospect than contender.

Cats like Thurman is why boxing should work more like most sports work. You don't control who you compete against at a certain level. And if you keep winning you eventually get to compete against the best. Thurman over here coasting right now. And he's hoping he can coast over Manny to I bet.
