Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Drops, Bloodies, Decisions Thurman For WBA Title

Pacquaio won. I'm ok with the split decision because the right man got the decision.He threw the more effective,harder punches,despite Thurman's higher percentage.If Pacquaio hadn't hesitated when he hit Thurman with that murderous body shot,he coulda stopped him.One Time took out his mouthpiece ready to quit.Lol.

Pac goes up the ATG ladder! Thurman was classy and even after he was heart to the head a body a number of times he still tried to take Pac's head off. But Pac should ride off into the sunset...he cannot expect his body to keep up this pace. Retire, no need to fight Spence or Crawford. Not a damn thing left to prove.

Manny emptied the tank. That’s why I pay to see him fight. He absolutely went all out trying to knock a younger prime fighter down. This is why he’s an ATG and a legendary fighter.

Props to Keith as well. But yea, that’s probably the last we should see of Pacquiao at this level. He should fight Khan for a paycheck and call it a career.

Pacquiao still got a great chin, Pac clearly won

Keith just doesn't have IT anymore. That 2 year layoff, and getting married has pretty much taken the desire of fighting out of him.

I don't expect to see him back in the ring ever again.

But how about that performance by Pacquiao? That was very impressive.

To me he looked much better than the Lopez performance, but Pac just defied the order of the universe and looked that much better. I think Thurman would have looked better against the lion's share of the division tonight.

thurman got pretty beat up by a 40 years old manny, can you imagine what a pacman from the cotto/margarito's era would do to him?

Congratulations to Manny Pacquiao on his much deserved victory the fight had gone as I expected. I also, would like to tip my hat Keith Thurman on such a bold and courageous display of fortitude.

Even though, he is no longer prime, I was more than a little surprised about how well he rallied and rocked Pac on occasion in the second half of this fight.

It was highly entertaining fight for both guys as they both battered each other but the best man won here tonight and that was Manny Pacquiao.

I would like to see Pac retire after this fight. He ate too many clean punches from a shop worn Thurman. I would advise him to stay away from Erroll Spence at all costs.

Anyone who fights this old roided out midget without drug testing deserves to have their belts taken.

And anyone who thinks what they just watched is normal and natrual, deserves to have their brain taken.

Even Pacquiao won but a SHAME for judges scores. SPLIT decision??? BVLL****

A shame judging it's not that close, a shame for that judge who scored for a loudmouth Thurman. Yes Thurman have some moments but not the round. A SHAME for boxing if this is always the case of scoring.

I hope there's a FAIR new scoring system in the future.
