Will you give Pacquiao credit if he beats Thurman, and vice versa?

    Pac has been saying that he wanted Thurman and Roach has been saying they want Thurman for years.

    The question is why do you want Spence and Crawford to fight a tiny 40 year old who got knocked out by Marquez and lost to Horn and fought bums in Lucas and Broner according to you?

    Why are you not criticizing Spence for fighting Porter who CLEARLY lost to Ugas? Why are you not criticizing Spence for running from Crawford? Why are you not criticizing Floyd for protecting Tank from Loma? Why are you not criticizing Spence for calling out GGG and Canelo and then running from Oscar's offer? And you certainly didn't criticize Crawford for fighting Khan.

    Why? Because you're a racist POS and that's a fact. That's why you accused Pac of PEDs for years until Floyd got caught with a needle in his arm. Your agenda is obvious, troll.

    It's up for debate. Thurman has a better resume than both Spence and Crawford.

    Of course he deserves credit for a win over the recognized WW World champ. AT this stage no one really expects Pac to be anything other than a top contender. The only posters who won't give him credit are the usual idiots here. Most posters already know who they are...

    How much credit is Horn given for beating Pac? It seems like there is always an excuse when Pac loses. Marquez was on peds, Mayweather had illegal IV's, Horn got a hometown decision. It's always something.

    Either winning without controversy or injury they will get the credit deserving of this fight

    That's not pac, fact.
    Pac isn't remotely close to being shot, I G don't think pac will ever truly be shot.

    Great fighters don't get shot over night for no reason. Pac has proved over the last few years that he's far from shot, only SHOT fighters can't pull the trigger any longer.

    I don't even know of the last truly shot gear fighter there been since SRL.

    I think it would definitely put him back in the conversation though of who really is the top guy right there with Spence and Crawford.

    Porter, Garcia and Pac. That’s a pretty impressive WW resume.

    Spence is 170lb.

    Lol. The guy should move up to fight Canelo.

    Unfortunately this. I like both fighters, but PAC’s timing and speed have been long gone for years. PAC’s making it purely on his extensive ring experience, which counts, but 40 years old is still 40 years old.

    Marquez wasn't on PEDs?

    Floyd wasn't on PEDs?

    The majority of people didn't think Pac was robbed?

    You're just Pimp C 2.0.

    Only haters will not give pac any credit for picking thurman. Maybe pac did pick thurman because of how he performed against lopez but regardless thurman is #2 at the weight when it comes to resume. Cherrypick? That's funny when the supposed top 2 of the division is fighting the likes of benavidez, khan, ocampo and mikey who probably don't belong in the division anyway.

    Thurman should also get credit if he beat this pac but not as much credit if its against prime pac

    Don't forget about his killer left hand. That thing changes people's gameplan instantly.

    Mosely, Rios, Vargas, Lucas, and Broner all promised to go to war and decided to box or go into survival mode once they tasted the power.

    Not much since everyone thought it was a robbery. I watched it once and i got horn winning but ill probably need to watch it again to make sure.
