    Manny has fought one full blown WW in 8 yrs and that was Horn.
    A lightweight pac was fighting giants since 2008.

      At the same time you think about it. 41 years of age, had more wars than any fighter in his battle-worn body, still fighting at a weight limit beyond his natural body weight and he's not fighting a stiff fighter,--He's fighting an Elite world champion whose stronger, bigger, longer, more powerful, younger and in his absolute physical prime undefeated Champion. Keith is not faster than Manny but he's faster and more athletic than Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter, Errol Spence and Terrence Crawford.

      Pondering with it. How much longer can he hold off against such
      a compounding disadvantage?--how much more handicap can a one man take? .. I think this is a perfect storm for Thurman.

      Keith is such a smart man, he knows that this is his one and only shot at greatness, by winning, he can put behind all his competition at welterweight and with Pacquiao's head he is likely to get a supreme leverage is future negotiations against any welterweight. This is why he hired 2 S&C coaches, he dusted-off his ring rust against Jossesito Lopez, and he speaks with utmost confidence never before seen in all of Pacquiao's opponents. He knows he's 120% well-prepared and he's not leaving anything to a chance. He expects to destroy a legend this coming July 20 no ifs and no buts.

      If only you knew his age.

          His other past opponents was just there to win 7 rounds. Thurman is here to hurt Manny.
          enters marquez lol... i dont think manny has any tougher fight than this guy here. when manny fight with marquez, after the fight, you can tell that pacman's been in a fight.

          at this stage, thurman might be the most dangerous fight but i dont think it'll be manny's hardest fight. yall giving these young guys too many respect when they havent really done much. i will not be surprise if thurman looks amateurish.

            Thurman looks really bad in the clips from his training camp

            he looks slow

            and the sparring clip where he eats an uppercut does not look good


            I was picking Thurman because his legs are fresher

            but if he gets tagged by pac, he could get knocked out if he is still not used to taking shots, he looked off when lopez was tagging him. I thought that would help him become familiar with getting hit again, after the layoff

                ... normally, Thurman beats an old Pacman...

                  Youth vs power and experience.

                  I won’t bet this fight...
                  I’m a degenerate gambler..

                  Let the best man, on that night win..

                    Thurman has been going backwards for years and doesn’t have world class power

                    He should be a big underdog

                      Nobody has destroyed Pac, even Marquez was losing until the KO.

                      Thurman is in for a long night, win or lose.
