      KT is not going after him in that sense, he will counter box and look to land a hammer.

        I see that Justin Fortune is heavily involved in Manny's training and that a lot of it is taking place in the Philippines.
        good question but i believe that's a question for Al haymon, PBC and floyd. those are the main guys running this show. by the way pac vs horn also didnt have VADA testing. if my memory is correct, i believe pac loss that fight?

          Thurman by decision after a cautious fight in which he stays on the move, looking to time Pac with a big shot like JMM did.

            In "fire fight" when they are trading leather, there is no better fighter than Manny Pacquiao.

            And even though he is at 50% of where he was in his prime, he is still too much for Thurman if the decided to trade with him.


            Thurman is no fool and will look to box, look for the counters, use his height and reach and take it later rounds.

              I agree. This will probably be the plan. Whether Keef can execute throughout the duration of this fight without either letting Manny pile up too many rounds or without getting hurt by Manny is the question.

                Does it really matter any more? You got guys like Miller who are already lining up they’re next fight after double red flags and Nelo is still a golden boy in more ways than one, Fury now the apparent saviour of the HW division is a time served cheat.

                Pretty much all of them are doing something, boxing has never been a clean sport.

                Also, if they are not cheating with drugs, they cheat in contracts, refs and judging, might as well just sit back and enjoy the show.

                  Thurman has longer arms he should go after Pac.
                  Test and see if his defense and chin have aged well.
                  Pac legs are starting to go. He doesn’t bounce around like he used to. Thurman needs to let his hands go and don’t be fooled by Roach.

                    mofos still holding on with hopes that manny will get popped with peds.. not even sure why this is still in their head when like you said there is actually guys that just got popped recently that they dont even talk about.
