Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Drops, Bloodies, Decisions Thurman For WBA Title

Very entertaining fight. Stats wise, Thurman did very well. But he just reacted poorly to every shot that landed. Not sure whats going on with him. I hope Pac fights Khan or Garcia. I think Spence, Porter and Crawford all beat him. He is still great, but I think his stamina isnt there.

The PBC broadcast on the other hand...brutal. the commentary made no sense. We didn't get to see corners. I miss HBO.

Pac showed his age after the first half. At his peak, he could have easily knocked out Thurman in the first 6 rounds. He's just so fast and sneaky.

Thurman showed great heart. He fought with all he has left.

It's time for Pac to retire. He's not going to win over Porter or Spence. In fact, he may have suffered some irreparable damage today.

There's one more important job to be done before Senator Pacquiao can retire, and that is to rid boxing of Amir Khan.

The foot and handspeed will go in his 90s. The guy is a machine.

Pac vs Spence would be insane.🥊

I'll be insane not to watch that!

Said it before, I have no idea why people favoured Thurman in this fight

He had a massive layoff before looking terrible in his last fight against a guy who was stopped by Berto plus there’s doubts about him being 100%

Wouldn’t be surprised if Keith retires

I have to admit, I underestimated GrandPac too much... While I see him massively declined against Thurman, he's still a dangerous opponent for boxers below Top 5...

Incredible perfomance by both fighters back and forth entertaining war, there were no real losers tonight. That being said another poster mentioned this earlier but I do not see Keith Thurman fighting again there was some real emotion in his congratulations that made me feel this could be it for him. I would love nothing more then to be wrong because I’d love to see him rematch Garcia or go after khan, solid night of fights.

I predicted Manny would win this fight and maybe even stop Thurman , which he came close to doing
Pac in my eyes is one of the best fighters I have ever witnessed fighting
But he did gas out between the sixth and tenth round imo
What he did tonight was incredible considering not only his age factor but also take into consideration the wars this man has been in
All right his to state that unfortunately as much as I would cheer for Pac , he does not beat Bud or Errol at this point
These guys will run a fughin train on him
He’d have that punchers chance but it’s time to walk away , no need for more punishment or even accomplishments
He’s done it all , oh yeah and fugh Khan too , let him get a paycheque elsewhere ( imagine Khan wins , we’ll never get rid of that mofo )

Pac it’s time to go from a big fan

There are thousands of idiots out there who have hated the ALL TIME PAC and can’t see the forest for the trees😂

So Sad !! Pac will go down as an All time Great!! It’s a lock!

I couldn’t believe Mayweather got up in the ring😂😂😂what was he gonna do ? Shlt?!
Mayweather fought a one armed PAC ! You idiots need not worry 😂 Mayweather won’t fight a two armed Pac😂😂😂🔨.

Pac fought A UNDEFEATED PRIME ELITE 10 years younger that him and beat him easily!! Put him on the ground!!

Mayweather has NEVER IN THE LAST 12-15 years fought a PRIME UNDEFEATED ELITE!!

Legacy: Pac goes down as an ALL TIME GREAT

MAYWEATHER GOES DOWN AS A FRAUD COWARD WITH GREAT SKILLS ! He showed he had No Heart at the Elite level. His heart was more like a D-

Pac is A+

GO PAC 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Honestly I thought Thurman won the fight - but it was close enough for me not to be mad about it. Pacquiao fought way better than I thought he ever could at his age and he showed that he's still more than relevant to the division. Thurman can still rebuild, but this is obviously a big setback for him and regardless of whether you thought he won or lost it's clear that those days when he was seen as the top dog at WW are well behind him. As for Pacquiao, I think he'll probably take that Saudi money and fight Khan next. Either that or start angling for Crawford next.
