Manny Pacquiao vs Keith Thurman on July 20

[sunsilk]

P2P betting, this kind of setup will also work for someone who wants to bet directly with other people. $1k seems huge for me and is this for the upcoming fight or this came from the past fights? handicap and plus can also be applied with this kind of betting.

It was the first Bradley fight, I bet for Manny for there are people who go against him and put a big bet of around $1K, it was huge as Manny lost a controversial decision the first time. And the funny thing is, after the fight, the winners bought some beers around and then we started the never ending debate that night.

At least your opponent included you to the treat haha.

Anyway, I believe that Manny Pacquiao will win this game again.

I still believe in him and will support him all the way for this fight. Few days from now we've got to witness another great fight. I want him to watch on his full attitude anger on the ring base on what his point of view about Thurman's word towards him.

Looks like this fight needs some more hype.

In every Pacquaio's PPV match here provided by my Cable company, the average price is around $25-$30.

On July 21 fight, the price is just ranging to $18-$20. What just happened.

Keith Thurman isn't really a huge name, and his previous fight was with Adrian Broner, who I think is signed by TMT.

Based on that alone there probably isn't as much money being poured into advertising the event, and they can probably tell based on how many seats were sold.

If that number was pretty low, then they can see demand is low and hence will need to lower the PPV price to compensate.

When he was at his peak, there is no one in the Philippines willing to bet against him. But recently, there are some who are willing to bet and ready to place a large amount against Pacquiao.

There are still people who are betting against Manny Pacquiao but they are only betting because of the odds, I know some places in our hometown that doing such a bet, but there are odds, like 100/60. 100- Manny Pacquiao, 60- Keith Thurman. There are also 100/70, it really depends.

If these kinds of odds on local, I'll really go against Manny Pacquiao on this even with small bet only.
Those gambling place or authority are also trusted since some of them are a group of people or business establishment that has a good reputation in terms of gambling, just like Billiards sports gambling , cock fighting gambling, etc.

What kind of odds is that, that's really confusing. Does it mean 1.60 and 1.70 for Pacman and Thurman respectively?

Nope, for example, you are betting on Manny Pacquiao for $100, then the opposite person will only bet for Keith Thurman for just $60 versus of your $100.
It's something like, Manny Pacquiao - 1.60 for 2.665 for Keith Thurman?? Something like that.

Correct me if I'm wrong. If you bet on Keith Thurman, your $60, will become $160. And if you bet on Manny Pacquiao, your $100 will only become $160, if win.

This is interesting because the price is still normal pay per view pricing for me so it must all depend on where you live
With this match set to take place in less then three weeks we will start to see more promoting for the event.
If you are wondering about the ticket sales I just checked the website https://tix.axs.com and there are still cheap seats available which means tickets are not selling too well

It's still 17 days to go it will be filled soon, but yeah this fight is not getting a lot of hype when it should be because this is Manny's biggest test so far after a big comeback from his loss to an Australian guy this is the biggest challenge to Manny Pacquiao because he has not fought a boxer like this in the last two years.

That is how they do it.

They will be getting that "promo" so people would watch and obviously, pay for the PPV. Filipinos support Manny so much that there are a lot of places you can watch the fight. Even the most trafficked road in our town will not be that traffic at that time because all will be having their eyes on Pacquiao stepping his foot again on the ring with Thurman.

Or probably wanted the price to be cheap so that there average boxing fans can buy PPV?

Or it's just Thurman is not a household name even in the US, that's why they can't command high PPV because the US fighter is just the B-side on this fight? Although initially he is favored by we don't know, as we get closer, the odds could shift to Manny.

The hype isn't that much so it's a good strategy to lower the PPV so that they can get more subscribers. I believe they know, they won't get many subscribers as before if they will put it the same price as before. Sure thing if it was Manny Vs Crawford they will make it higher again. It's all about hype.

Manny Pacquiao can still draw crowds even if he is not the same fighter we witnessed years ago. He can still a lot of casual fans in the seat. However, the issue here is the opponent his facing right now. Broner's name is more appealing to boxing fans, as opposed to Thurman who is not that hype a fighter. Obviously he is doing his best. But for Filipino fans this is good news, as the price is really affordable and you can watch it at the comfort of your own home, and not on crowded bars or something.

Nice analysis. Yes, this will be Manny's biggest test so far. As we all know that Thurman is young and have a big puncher like himself.

I think it is gathering steam specially in the Philippines where Pacquiao is a senator and their national hero. Thurman is doing his share as well, hyping and having interview with press people to get some noise and of course so that they're be interested to watch the fight either PPV or live.

This is not good for Thurman. Pacman has his own trash-talking spokesperson in Roach and we all know how credible he is when he talks about speed or the lack of it for Thurman. This could affect the betting (already started) and we could only win small when we bet for the Pacman as he is becoming the heavy favorite on this match.

[Malsetid]

I doubt Floyd will face any boxer again as he declared formally that he is retired and even meet Manny for advertisement early this year in Philippines

If the price is right, Floyd will fight anyone who can help him generate millions of dollars just like what he earned from his fights with Manny and Conor. At this point, only Floyd and Pacman 2 can come close to those fights.

Lol. I personally wouldn't pay to watch two old men slug it out for the sake of them being big names in boxing. These two are way past their prime no matter what anybody say. A loss to thurman would probably make pacquiao realize that he's not the same as before and it's better to just be wise about it and retire, just like floyd.

[mirakal]

I am checking the odds now on the game, and I was surprise Pacman now is the favorite with 1.72 odds while Thurman is 2.01.

Looks like it was flip as it was completely the opposite of the starting odds of the two.

It will be an exciting battle in the world of competition in 2019. KEITH THURMAN's ambition to defeat MANNY was seen at THE HILLS HOTEL at his press conference. But whatever the statement is, all the evidence is in the ring. MANNY can certainly handle it.

I'm expecting he'll handle Thurman easily as Thurman will have a hard time throwing the best punch to Pacman as Pacman is still fast.
The line changes is already a big evidence that despite of the age of Pacman, people still believes he can beat this younger opponent of his.
Most of the predictions favors pacman, even the celebrities in boxing who knows the sports better.

You're right with what you said because Floyd has said it many times that he'll retire but whenever he has faced a fighter which he could earn huge bucks fighting him come along he'll still fight.
Btc78, Floyd is a businessman and smart fighter and I won't doubt him facing any boxer after his retirement declaration.

The last time I checked, you're not the judge for the fight and I wonder why you're sure that Thurman will have a hard time throwing his best punches to Pacman when his plan to tease Pacman around the ring for the better chances.
Dont be too excited because of Freddie Roach statement.

[Dreamchaser21]

17 days left and we will know the winner between Manny Pacquaio and  Keth Thurman. Many bet will happen in the different country . I want to share when Manny have fight Metro Manila have no criminical case on the day during Manny's fight. Many Filipino are really love Manny and we support him even he lose or win but Im strongly Im sure he win this fight.

On the previous fight of Manny, many fire incidents happened and one of those was in my place before well maybe its just a coincidence. More days to go and we should also place are bet now so we can have profit as well. We are not sure for Manny to win but we really hope for that.

I'm just a fan that has put too much confident on Pacman, so I believe he will handle Thurman easily in this fight, if I'm wrong, then be it. 

Dont be too excited because of Freddie Roach statement.

They hype pacman and I got hype, I have no problem with as I saw pacman prove us many times that he is a great fighter and can still dominate.
He can't be an 8 time division champion if he is no dominating, Thurman has still more to prove, so hopefully I'm wrong so you are right.

I do agree that most fight fans favored or at least want Manny Pacquiao to win, after all he is a legend and a hero to his beloved country. However, we can't really tell how the game will played out, could be KO/TKO unanimous decision.

@Dreamchaser21 - Yes, that's right it seems that when Manny fights, the whole Philippines stops and go and watch his box. There are reports that even criminals do watch him that's why there are 0 crimes in the street, amazing!!!.
