No more excuses but Pacquiao should retire.

Nah Pac is fine. Only guy that he should avoid at this point is Crawford (because pac is over 40 and don't give Arum a payday).

Disappointing for Thurman. I thought the Lopez fight was due to rust but Thurman has definitely lost something. Kudos to Manny although it really was unanimous.

Nothing but class from Thurman. Fun fight!

Thurman clearly won 5 rounds, two swing rounds. It was VERY close because Thurman stole the middle and the end.



Same scorecard I had. The judges scored more for Manny because of how Thurman was reacting when he got hit especially that body shot. When they said headbutt I was like BS, that was straight to the body, clean as it gets.

Exactly. Goosen was just terrible, like he always is. Saying what Thurman wasn't doing and in between his words Thurman landed 3 big right hands or jabs.

I like the fight. It was a clean fight and the decision made by the judges were fair. Overall, this fight left me feeling good about boxing's reputation. Great job to everyone especially to PBC in making this fight.

Man Keith Thurman is a really likeable guy, classy stuff in the post fight interview, id love to see the rematch, really lived up to expectations, great to see a big fight live up to the hype, Pacquiao really is one of the greatest of all time

ehhh Keith a little too gracious. If one judge has you winning you can claim that you won the fight.

That judge was corrupt lol. 114-113. The guy lost the most important rounds which are the championship rounds. Rounds 10 through 12.

So where does Thurman go from here? this was a horrible defeat for him Spence or Crawford will kill him.

Unbelievable stuff from Manny Pacquiao especially in the first half of the fight. Manny should stay away from Spence and Crawford though especially Spence.
