Let's be real, prime Pacquiao would break Thurman in half

Hard to say... thurman mightve just had to shake that ring rust offf from the big injury that kept him sidelined. Pacs obviously passed it

 

Unless Pac is completely shot as in can’t pull the trigger, he breaks Thurman in half now. Just bad style matchup for Thurman. You run from Pac or tie him up, in the case of Floyd he did both. Thurman doesn’t tie and he runs poorly, looks like an awkward mofo moving laterally and so open to a straight. He was always open that’s why he went life and death with B level guys like Garcia and Porter.

And Pac would destroy Garcia like he did Margo, mofo would be lost. Porter would be the toughest and rough because of his physicality.

Only Spence and Crawford competes h2h with Pac/Mayweather and the generation before that, ODLH, Tito, Mosley. Thurman was never on that level.

 

Morales is a legend and he beat Pac fair and square but I don’t think that was a prime Pac. Pac was very unpolished and I remember roach bragging about developing his right hand for the fight, shows you how early he was into his development.

I think Pac really peaked at ODLH fight as he really had to rise to the occasion for that. And it was a very fast linear progression in skill from Morales 1 onwards, showed in Morales 2, 3 and looked even better in Diaz fight. Say what you will about Diaz but Pac never looked that good with lesser opponents prior.

 

Other than a perfectly timed shot(Marquez) or hail mary shot, Thurman really doesn't offer much in this fight. All he can hope for is that Pacquiao gets old overnight.

 

It’s 2019 no matter how much you try you can’t go back so let’s live in the now, This Pac-Man is old win or lose he should retire nobody wants to see him get hurt.

 

We all know this .

 

Mayweather says otherwise

 

Feasts on movers doesn’t do so well with huggers. Horn, Sanchez, floyd.
