    He's not more skilled than Spence; he's nothing more than a power puncher who realized that he isn't. He also has a paper mache body and so approaches every fight in survival mode, relying on his flashy ambush style to take rounds.

    Peak Spence is more skilled, hits harder, is more durable, physically bigger and stronger, etc. Thurman moves better, but it is exclusively for the purpose of avoiding engagement.

    It was Thurman who was tailor made. You can't let Pac come forward. Keith tried to run from Pac and repeatedly got caught retreating. Pac was literally clowning him before getting tired, but folded Keith's glass torso in half to seal the victory.

    Spence is one dimensional. Jab, jab, wide telegraphed hook, work the body with his head down. The pressure and size worked against stationary guys like Brook, Danny, Mikey, and Ugas. Pac turns this dude all day and punishes him with brutal counters.

    This, plus people are now going on about how the all night back tracker Ugas was supposedly bashing Pacquiaos head in all night, even with them rigging the CompuBox they still only had Ugas lading a few more punches than him.

    He couldnt even tear ugas to pieces a guy Spence destroyed. Had Spence fought pac he would've beaten him much worse than ugas did. Also you claimed Spence faked an eye injury to get out of the pac fight yet want to believe he was drained against Crawford when it fits your agenda. Log off

    Why doesn't Pac fight Thurman again or somebody in the top ten?

    Don't you understand that you aren't describing a 42 year old? Old man Pac wasn't turning a damn thing. He lost to Jeff Horn. Lost to Ugas. He tried that side-stepping **** against Thurman and nearly expended an entire fight's worth of stamina. LOL

    That prime Pac was long gone, even during the Thurman fight. Literally the only time Keith had any success was when he stepped forward and smothered Pac.

    You can't just apply prime Pac's attributes here. What's wrong with you?

    People may think this is just me being a Pac fanatic but...I'm gonna say it. You can't say stuff like this but I'm gonna say it anyway: If Pac hadn't taken on all comers and fought just the guys he fought that he lost to, Manny Pacquiao woulda never lost a single fight.

    pac beat horn to be fair. Horn wasnt even in there to win on points he was just there to be dirty. Did nothing to win. Pac shoulda fought dirty back though.

    It’s possible. Spence was shot to bits. No one in their right mind thinks Pac would beat a prime Spence that fought Brook. Even a prime Manny was too small for Spence and wouldn’t got his ass tore up.
