    Of course, Robert Garcia is one of them. It’s a 50-50 fight due to Pac’s age but Thurman better not underestimate Pac because he might end up retiring instead of Pac.

      Pre fight - ''Me in best condition of life.''
      Post fight - ''Me injured before the fight.''
      You just don't want to accept that an injured pac make floyd run for his life.

        Better used 750ml of IV before the fight.

          QI saw a video yesterday of Manny hitting the heavy bag in typical Manny fashion, fast & hard combinations. Gotta say I was a little impressed at how sharp he looked especially since it was only day 2 camp.

          I'm not saying he wins but I think he still has at least 1 more great performance left in him & I think he's really gonna bring it to Thurman. He always comes in shape, the only fight I in recent memory that he half assed camp would have to be the Horn fight. He didn't look as ripped as he usually does at the weigh in, gassed after the 10th (something I've never seen in any of his other fights), didn't even know who Horn was & didn't even bother to watch tape on him. despite all that I still thought he won, but it was a ugly win.

          He had the flu & a scratched cornea during the Broner fight & u couldnt tell til the post fight conference.

          I'd love to see him get the W and call it a day. But in reality, if he wins he'll end up fighting Spence and going out sadly like Ali.
          How does a guy look sharp on a Heavy Bag, sharp is accuracy against a live opponent .

            "Sharp" is subjective, a guy can look like sh-t on a heavy bag believe it or not

              He got humiliated, that was BS, and if it was true, he still fought he did not pull out

                How do you look sharp on a Heavy Bag, its not sharp because you need a live moving target, thats what defines sharp in a fight its reactive accuracy .

                Any fool can rattle of quick punches on a bag, thats not being sharp in boxing.

                    Seeing is believing. Since there is no visual footage of said injury........
