Comments Thread For: Ellerbe on Pacquiao-Thurman: I Think They Need To Do Rematch

[Spoon23]

As soon as his contract is up, Pacquiao team would surely shop both sides of the street, it would be funny if Bob Arum suddenly accepted Manny's 20-30 million offer to fight Crawford after all what he said about his care for Manny's health and all. haha

I'd say if Pac beats Spence. That's more than enough to cap his stellar career. But yeah, it would be funny if Bob offers him top dollar for a Crawford fight.

For me win against Spence then fight Khan for his last fight with a KO victory and ride of to the sunset.

That's a fairy tale ending lol

Manny's not going to fight Errol, especially if he wins.

Did he told you that?

[Truth Serum]

pbc is acknowledging the potential disaster should manny beat the porter/spence winner. They’re doing their best to avoid pacquiao screwing up their cash cow division.

bingo!!!!!!

It was a really, really good fight. Pacquiao won clear but Keith displayed in the back half of the fight that he could **** with Pacquiao in a rematch and for sure have a chance to win.

Thing is, Pacquiao will be 41 in his next fight. He doesn't have time for rematches that weren't controversial.

This wasn't controversial.

By the way, I absolutely think Manny would have a very real shot at beating Terence Crawford.

I'm not saying he'd be the favorite, but he'd have a very realistic shot. What's Crawford's best win? Terence hasn't beat anyone near Keith Thurman's level. Let's be honest. If Crawford beat Thurman (before Pacquiao beat him) it would be by leaps and bounds the biggest name on his resume. Hell even after Pacquiao beat Thurman it would still be by far Crawford's biggest W.

And size wise Manny would be much more aligned with Crawford than he was Thurman.

It would be a tremendous fight and I really find it hard to believe that it would be the one sided fight that a lot of people think it would be.

Reality ending he wont fight Spence because they lose, will probably fight Thurman again because he knows he wins and it was a good fight so would probably sell ok, he could have fought Spence instead of Thurmon, he chose for a reason, he wants non of Spence no matter what he says his face walking away from Spence at the face to face call out was like he seen a ghost.

Fighting a totally shot Khan for his last fight is way worse than Floyd fighting Berto , same ol double standards you spew everyday.

You dumbass. I brought up Khan since it’s like a farewell fight. His last dance. It could even be in Manila. He’s last dance has to be with an easy opponent that he can toy around. Like a Berto lol

Off course a last fight has to be a sure win. He ain’t leaving the sport with a loss, but that’s too difficult for you to comprehend.

Secondly, didn’t say Spence is a walk in the park. It’s a 50/50 fight. How do I know that? Since a light weight Mikey who went up to welterweight was able to last for 12 rounds with Spence. A mobile full welterweight Pac with foot work can obviously give Spence so many problems. Pac has said in many interviews Spence is a viable opponent. He’s not here for a pay day. He’s here for legacy. So expect Spence to be his next fight unless PBC won’t allow Pac, since Pac can derail their present and future cash cow. They might take a hit. And that’s the bottom line.

Oh guess who Floyd bet on the Pac Thurman fight? Floyd lost money that night. Floyd bet on Thurman to win. Here’s a video showing how disappointed his body guard was for hearing Pac won. Obviously Pac wasn’t suppose to win.

@ 0.30 after being announced the winner. The FLOYD minion was so disappointed and the whole TBE entourage was upset like Floyd lost big.

They already were hoping Pac will lose and get robbed again in Vegas, but they couldn’t. Coz Pac won convincingly.

There is no point whatsoever in a re-match.

[champion4ever]

Technically speaking, Pac can avoid a Spence fight he wants to. He doesn't have to necessarily unify the titles. At this stage of his career, that man can fight whomever, he so pleases and so can Money May. They are both OGs in the sport. They both have done their time and paid the price so they have nothing left to prove.

[SplitSecond]

If he fights Spence and loses badly, he might retire or at the very least the Thurman rematch wouldn't be anywhere near as much of a draw on PPV.

Meanwhile already knows he can beat Thurman and will make either the same amount of money if not more more, so fight Thurman first.

Pac is still fighting because he needs the money, so he better maximize earnings in these final bouts.

If pac wants money and to hang around as long as possible, he should avoid Thurman, Porter, Spence or Crawford all together.
