    Default Pacquiao vs Thurman

    So apparently this fight has been made for the end of July. This is the first top fighter that Pacquiao has fought in a long time. I think that Pacquiao wins this but Thurman is obviously a good fighter who has a good chance at winning.

    The one thing I like about this fight is that the winner would seem to have to fight Spence next.

    Thurman should beat Manny but he has declined since his inactivity but hope he has enough to beat Pac Man.

    It will be a good indicator to where Thurman is at now.

    i feel that both are damaged goods at this point and no longer their best versions. I actually favor Manny in this one. Manny is at the age and has the wear and tear to get old overnight, but I think he is catching Thurman at the right time and just has too much speed for Keith.

    Which is what makes this a good matchup. This is to find out who is the 3rd best welterweight in the world.

    Thurman may have been blunted by inactivity & that makes him a bit of an unknown quantity, but he isn't Adrian Broner.

    Pacquiao is well beyond his prime at 41 & that will become hugely apparent if he takes on a big dog like Thurman, even if Thurman isn't fully back to his vintage best yet.

    Always a chance that Pac grows old in the ring, but I reckon he’s got too much for a faded Thurman.
