Pacquiao will simply finish off what Jesito Lopez started on ThurBoy. TKO on or before the 7th round.
Pac UD. Although I am not particularly confident of this. A fighter of his age can get "old overnight." It could happen in this fight.
I have a feeling that people are gonna be saying any or all of the following if Pac beats him: Thurman was shot Thurman showed up for a paycheck Thurman took a dive
Honestly, this fight is as close to a pick'em you can get. Thurman was the initial odds favorite, but now Pacquiao is a small favorite on the odds. Like most guys on the forums, I am rooting for a great fight because boxing wins. To quote Forrest Gump, "Life was like a box of chocolate. You never know what you're gonna get." Who knows what we are going to get from Manny or Keith?The only thing that will be 20/20 is hindsight.
May the best man win - Clearly and without any controversial BS because of incompetent and corrupt judges.
Manny is perhaps one of the most disrespected legends in boxing history for having been robbed thrice already (JMM 1 - judge admitted error in scoring, Bradley 1, Horn) . That's not to mention the bogus rounds that were given to his opponents too, whether he won or not. I won't be surprised if it happens a 3rd time in this fight. All things being clean, I'd go for a Pacquiao UD. Keith will be backpedalling all night. If the judges will score that as "ring generalship" then yeah, Thurman SD.
