    Two guys with relatively fan friendly styles with vulnerabilities squaring off. Decent power, relatively weak punch resistance (Thurman body, Pac head)

    Entirely possible Pac faceplants again with 1 Thurman bomb and it's VERY possible that Thurman gets hit with one of those Bernard/Oscar type body shots and goes down for the count!

    We shouldn't expect a contest of high boxing ability, but one punch from either man could be lights out! I gotta say, I'm stoked for this one!!!!!

    This should be a DAMN GOOD FIGHT!!

    Let's get it on!!!

    Let's hope we see an other worldly KO in this fight!

    I'd put money on 12rds.

    That would be disappointing result for Thurman, mostly. He should be able to knock a 40 year old man out.

    You consistently display some of the worst attributes that a person can have.

    a) he isn't a KO artist, let's put that myth to bed. Fine boxer, though.

    b) Pac has now fought several consecutive natural welters & light welters, including a couple of natural super middleweights (Horn and Broner, if we're being honest) and one monstrous puncher (LMM) and hasn't so much as been down. So.

    Not a KO artist, but should have enough power to KO a 40 year old Pacquiao imo.

    Let's not forget Marquez isn't a true KO artist either and he put that boy to bed.

    I think both could get stopped here. I think the chances are great Thurman gets it.

    This fight isn't going the distance. Because Pacquiao will put a massive beating on Thurman.

    Accumulation TKO!

    PAC is neither glass nor cannon. When is the last time he bombed someone out?

    Manny was definitely a KO artist earlier in his career, at his weight.

    If anyone gets stopped here it will be Pac.
