          Nah! Once he gets tagged, and he will, watch him run. The only remote possibility is that Thurman just opens up immediately creates a wild exchange and Manny gets caught.

            The bold is his plan. He wants an early ko. But yes. When that fire is returned, plans can change. It's not difficult to outbox Pac (if you're a live body). Exchanging with him is.

              I don't think he's really ever been outboxed. He's had close fights but not outboxed to a convincing decision. Floyd fought scared and did enough to get by. He was too cautious and refused to close the show in rds 11 and 12. I think Manny's foot speed and angles make it difficult for anyone to outbox him.

                Keith is a live body.

                For the most part, Pac has been taking on safe opponents.

                  I can see one of two headlines after this fight:

                  "Thurman outpoints Pacquiao in lackluster affair."

                  "Pacquiao adds to legend, scores unanimous decision in action filled fight."

                  Basically, it will be a fun Pacquiao win or a lackluster Thurman win. I think both of these guys are too experienced to allow a KO loss, unless Pacquiao becomes shot overnight or Thurman just does not care anymore. Excepting that, someone will dictate the pace and distance, and that will tell the tale. I am leaning to a dull, Thurman win, but I am really up in the air on this one. I talk myself in two different directions every time I read another article.
