Pac faded and should have put him away after the body shot. He got old the 2nd half of the fight. Hard work, experience and The Lord gave him that great performance. He will look awful in his next fight. He left it in the ring last night. Time to retire on top. It will never be the same. We will never see anything like him again. I prefer him over the defensive wizard any day. All his fights were offence. The haters are just miserable people. How could anyone not like this legend. Please retire, there nothing left in the tank and there's nothing more to achieve.Comment

When I saw Thurman get dropped in the 1st round and hurt to the body in the 10th, I immediately thought Crawford or Spence would have done the same thing, possibly getting him out of there. That version of Thurman wasn’t the same one before the injury when he fought Garcia or Porter.
Or maybe, just maybe, a 40 year old PAC exposed that Thurman isn’t really that good after all or that Porter or Garcia aren’t that good. So I’m not falling for the smoke and mirrors of last nights win. It was a tremendous win for PAC at 40 and adds to his legacy and all time greatness. But Spence and Crawford would have dominated that version of Thurman last night also in more convincing fashion I believe. And I believe both would beat PAC who would be over 40 years old by the time either of those fights are scheduled. Until I see Spence and Crawford not dominate an opponent in the ring, I have to get them the edge over a 40 something year old PAC.
Spence is taking a good step in fighting Porter, but Crawford has a long way to go to proving how great he is at welterweight.Comment

I'm a big Thurman fan but let's be real here. Age played a part here. Prime Pacquiao takes the Thurman from July 20th out. There's no shame in that, prime Pacquiao is considered one the best ever.Comment

And quick question for you, where was Kell Brook ranked when he fought Spence with only (1) loss on his record moving up in weight against GGG when their fight took place?
And where was the then undefeated Jeff Horn ranked by the time he fought Crawford?
