Comments Thread For: Thurman: It's My Time - Pacquiao Ain't Doing Nothing To Me!

[Bluebird]

I mean, Calslappy did it with Chris Eubank, Jeff Horn did it with Manny already...it happens

Jeff Horn did not destroy Pac, stop talking nonsense. The majority of boxing fans didn’t even believe he won that fight. Pac remains in the top 5 welterweight rankings and he is fighting Thurman for the real WBA belt. Nobody destroyed Pac, Marquez did the best job by knocking Pac out cold but Pac came back to become a champion again.

... the Horn fight was 2 years ago... now Pacman is 40 yo... and he's fighting a very different breed, tbh...

Manny is old and no where near the fighter he was ten years ago
but Thurman struggled so bad with j lopez it's hard to see him beating Manny even now unless he gets lucky .

This match up is a 6 out of 10. Hope the fight turns up better.

Exactly this.

Pac is oooold but he can still beat thurman.

You’re right, Thurman is a different breed, he’s undefeated and his resume is better than Crawford’s and Spence’s combined. These young undefeated lions won’t fight each other so the old lion will show them what it takes to be a lion king.

Different breed, sure. Keith isn't a bully, that's true. But Horn showed how to deal with Manny's trademark three hit combo: move right after he throws the first punch, then attack. Thurman can exploit that.
