I liked Thurman in his earlier days, but man he fights like he is a track star, he gets major rope burns from running so much during a fight. He is skilled, athletic and moves fluidly, but he doesn't "fight" enough. If he does he's back to running if he gets into trouble. He wastes too much energy so concerned about getting hit...no one wants to get hit, but he overdoes it, IMO. He should beat pac if he says he's as good as he is. You would think he should fighting a guy who has a lot of fights and is 40 yrs. old. This fight will tell us a lot about Thurman, and Pacman for that matter.

An older head looking to check a youngster on a few things. Kinda hoped Thurman or (any of these young ones )took the pass the touch approach rather than get out the ring grandpa.

Last time I heard someone talk this much was BHOP vs Joe Smith. After 8 rds of Gerri curl juice being sprayed everywhere Thurman about to get carted off the ring after his elbow goes out. What a Btch n166a.

When people say these guys run I know they just average fans that only see swinging.

Talking trash is not Manny's thing, we've seen a lot of non-trash talking fighters trying to trash talk lately, specially in MMA and they look really cringy, like something is really off. Trash talking is the in-thing with today though, nothing wrong with trying to drive up sales.
Manny is something of an exception though because he is like 99.9 percent to guarantee you an exciting fight in the ring, so he's very confident that he can stay in his character and still give fans a great fight.

Originally posted by True That View PostYeah, after watching that PBC Face to Face interview segment you can clearly see how bothered and flustered Pacquiao got with Thurman's trash talk. I don't remember a fight where Pacquiao was this bothered and flustered by the trash talk of his rival.
