Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman: How Am I the 'B' Side Against Manny Pacquiao?

[Roadblock]

Mannys purse, Keiths purse, which is greater that is the A side.

[ruedboy]

You're the B side Keith because Pac has a country, with a population of over 100 million people, behind him. Meanwhile if you ask most people who Keith Thurman is, they'll shake their heads and say "Didn't he used to play for the Yankees?"

I am so sick at the state of boxing today. here is a guy in his prime fighting a 40 year old part time blown up bantamweight. Thurman his staff and the promoter should be jailed for defrauding the public and Manny might even win.
can you imagine Duran leonard hearns etc doing this in their prime? they would not have even allowed it

Blown up bantamweight?? Pacquiao couldn't make bantamweight if you cut off his arms and legs!!
Blown up lightweight maybe. Either way, he's gonna paste Keith

[Clubber Pac]

Thurman should be sucking pace ball's for getting the privilege to face the best boxer since sugar ray 35 years ago Pac is a legend beyond any other of this era and still reckon be beats Thurman by descion

Nice try.

Mayweather is universally regarded as the greatest fighter of this generation, and the numbers indicate that.

Undefeated, and the only guy that was anywhere near him, he boxed his ears off.

One look at your cheque, Keith and you'll know what side you are, player??

There's certainly a debate to be had. Throw Roy in there too

1. Its Manny ****ing Pacquiao
2. Fewer people are fans of you by the day.

I think this presents a different angle why the Spence fight isn't happening any time soon.

Thurman don't want to fight Spence because he feels that Errol needs to do more work. It's how he views things. Thurman even sees himself as the A-side against Pacquiao. So my guess is he didn't want to entertain Errol because he doesn't really have any clout to be talking to an A-side like him. To simplify it, Errol and Thurman does not belong in the same sentence in his personal view.

is this a serious question?
