Comments Thread For: Thurman: I Would Love The Rematch With Pacquiao

[KayDub]

It was a close fight. I know everyone is happy for Pac, but let's not get goofy here. I didn't have Keith winning but I wouldn't cry robbery if someone else did by a narrow margin. Manny let a lot of those rounds get real close and let some of them go entirely.

There were a ton of close rounds. 1, 2, 10 were Pac's solid rounds, 6, 7, 8, 9 were Keiths. All the others were up for grabs. Manny had a few flashier flurries but coasted a lot during some of those rounds and Keith did the more constant consistent work.

Super close fight and I'd love to see a rematch, but that's because Keith is my boy and I'm pretty confident he takes the rematch. I expect the next time we see Keith he'll be back in prime form and Manny is only getting older, you could see his age in this fight.

I had Keith winning most of those rounds. I actually had Keith winning by one point.

lololo... there he is. not surprise by the comment lololol.

There's no way Thurman won more than 5 rounds. My goof-ometer is turned way down.

Keith definitely won 6-9, which is 4 rounds. 3, 4, 5, 11, 12 were all close rounds.

Honestly, I would love the rematch.

But Keith should not try to take the rematch immediately. Maybe after 2 to 3 fights down the road.

Like beat Broner, Danny, etc.

I would like the rematch and would be twice bigger than the first one!

I don't agree. If Pac is willing to setup an immediate rematch Thurman should jump on it. Keith got close to pulling it off, Manny won't get better, Keith took a little bit out of him. Keith should only get better from the experience. He said himself he still wasn't at 100% for this fight, the next time out all the rust should be gone and he should be at 100%.

No point ...I had Manny wining by 4 or 5 rounds.The judge who scored it to Thurman was a disgrace and needs sacking.

Thurman definitely won 6-9, 4 rounds. So what fight were you idiots watching where you had Thurman so far behind?

Pac only solidly won 1, 2, and 10.

He was landing some nice right hands & left hooks that all of you guys seem to be ignoring....

Right? By round 8/9 I thought Thurman was going to stop Manny late.

Then that body shot changed that.

I thought Keith lost only 1 or 2 rounds after the 3rd round up.

That's pretty much how I had it. After the 3rd the only solid Pac round was round 10. 3-5 was a bit back and forth as Keith was trying to take the momentum, and it turned by the 6th and Keith was starting to come back through the 9th. 10th round changed that and made the 11th and 12th seem more like rounds 4 and 5.

Good close fight, very entertaining.

No rematch. Lets see him go after Spence or Crawford, but the writing is on the wall there as well

Why do you dudes want the so called loser to fight the champions? Why would you dudes not say the so called winner should fight the other champions?? You dudes are weird.

no point in a rematch.. manny is pretty much done. so what if thurman beats pac in a rematch?? is he gonna take on the other contender after then? i dont think so. thurman should look to take on a tune up then after that go seek out the winner of spence/porter and fight that guy to get the belt.

Keith was landing more hands on Manny than Manny was landing on Keith....

[j.razor]

Thurman needs to fight Spence if he wants a rematch, but Manny will probably fight Spence before Thurman does.

Thurman supposedly lost but you want him th fight the champ? I bet you Manny does NOT fight Errol.
