Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao Shouldn't Take Fight With Spence; Can Get Hurt

[Zano-24]

When you are in your prime you are a the height of your career. Thurman had a 2 year layoff from injuries and looked terrible vs Josesito Lopez who is a guy he should have KOd with no issues. Yeah he was not only rusty but the signs of a shot fighter. I dont even think Thurman can beat Porter at this stage of his career.

Both men can get hurt, this ain't table tennis

Right!!! Excellent post short and to the point!! This ain't no hide and seek bs!!

Spence would end Manny's career as a boxer and also politician. Manny already has severe brain damage, as is evident by his inability to put thoughts together when he speaks.

"If he gets Mayweather, great. They do [the rematch], nobody gets hurt."

Way to sell that rematch.

Bob Cares: If Manny's still with me he'll be fighting Mike Alvarado.

What do you call a high profile fighter that had 2 yrs out because of major surgery with one fight back and looking real bad ?

Do you really think Manny takes it if Thurman blew through lopez.

Wake up and smell the real world.

Very refreshing to see fans that know what they are talking about for once. Salute.

Yer, that's what I think to.
Pacman and his team cherry picked Thurman based on his 2yr lay off & on how bad Thurman looked in his last outing against Lopez.
If Thurman was the same fighter that got rid of Porter & Danny Garcia no way Manny and his team would take that fight.
And saying all that Thurman and his team should have realised that the Manny fight was to soon for there man Thurman to be triumphant in but for the greed of the cash no dought ? & Legacy he lost this 0.

Very refreshing to see fans that know what they are talking about for once. Salute.

I have to agree with you. I would pic Porter in the rematch after watching Thurmans last two fights. He is simply not the same after the lay offs, injuries, and marriage and THAT is why Pac fought him.

Nah.

Manny said Spence reminds him of Ledwaba.

Let's do this!

Manny should give Spence a chance to take the torch from him and carry it into the next generation.

And who knows, maybe Manny can pull a miracle out of his pocket and beat him?
