    Damn near even in my eyes. Neither Kov or Thurman were at their absolute bests. Kovalev a better fighter at his peak than Thurman. Pacquiao 40 but at his comfortable weight. Canelo in his prime but moved up 2 weight classes. Odds wise you’d have to give it to Pacquiao but I think both were VERY impressive.

      LOL, Pac-Thurman 10000000000x. Thurman was the better, significantly younger fighter, and Manny was old. They were evenly matched. Kovalev was coming off 2 losses, took a fight on short notice, and was a 5-1 underdog.

            Manny battered the man around 1 year ago was called the best welter on the planet.

            Canelo is amazing and an atg but he beat weaker competition here.

            That being said both are higher atg than the cherry picker floyd

              Hit the nail on the head.
              This is all true.

              Manny, a PART TIME boxer, FULL TIME SENATOR, AGE 40, OUTCLASSED a PRIME, UNDEFEATED, 30 year old Thurman whom 1 year prior to that was considered the #1 WW and the MAN TO BEAT. Those words spoken by Terence Crawford himself.

              The Manny defeating Thurman is a greater achievement than practically 99% of the matches this year thus far.

                    Kov-Canelo.

                    Thurman hasn't really boxed in the last 2 years, if you don't get hit in that amount of time it's going to have a huge affect. Pac, I feel like his body has really filled out at the weight, he looked solid despite his old age and ofc has power, I think he's gotten heavier handed with age and much more durable.
