Comments Thread For: Fortune: Thurman Won't Go Toe To Toe - He'll Run From Pacquiao

[Iron Fister]

Still waiting on some announcement from Floyd to highjack the attention from this fight. Probably fight week.

Sooner or later Pacquiao is going to catch Thurman and seriously rock him but Thurman will have pocketed most of the rounds I’m afraid

Clottey became turtle

Mosley on bicycle
Mayweather on bicycle
Broner on bicycle

Not a race thing. There's an exception:

Timothy Bradley.

Thurman will either be bicycle boy or Bradley on fight night.

You don't have to be on bicycle and like a wuss to nullify Manny's punches. Bradley did it better with his head movement and gave us entertainment along with it.

Maywaeathe wasn't on his bicycle but he fought timid. As did Pacquiao

Now why in the hell will Thurman nullify his talents of boxing, stick & move, using the gift of youth in his legs to stand toe to toe (giving pac his only tool at this point)???

At some point he has got to engage and fight Pac toe to toe. When he throws that wide right hand, he will be open for Pacs left. We all know Pac has the faster hands and it will land before Kiffs right hand sails over Pacs head. Remeniscent of Cotto and Hattons. After that he will run, not box. That is how i see it.

who was the forward fighter on that night?

I'll say it again, you don't have to be on your bicycle to nullify Manny. Bradley did it with his head movement and gave us entertainment along with it.

Being on your bicycle against a former flyweight champ does not look good.

Mexicans did not ride the bike with Pacman except JMMemo Heroida Jones!

Justin Fortune, the strength and conditioning coach of eight division champion Manny Pacquiao, does not expect Keith Thurman to back up his big pre-fight talk. Thurman has boasted of going after Pacquiao, knocking him around with shots and retiring him from the sport.

It would be funny af if it ends up being Pacquiao who knocks Keith
around with shots and retires him from the sport.

I think the point is Thurmos won't go after Pac like he's claimed he will. He'll make Floydie's track meet look like a shuffleboard game at the retirement home. Run, run, and more run. Exact opposite of his pre-fight hype claims. Hopefully Pac can shut that down with body shots or we're in for a boring fight.

It is what it is.
