Manny Pacquiao vs Keith Thurman on July 20

[Baofeng]

It will be the 3rd Pacquiao fight I've seen in the PI... Its always an interesting day, kind of like a holiday.

Welcome back kuya @nutildah  .

I'm sure by now you know how Filipinos celebrate every fight day of Pacquiao (win or lose). Everyone is really excited and hype specially Filipinos. Lots of bets going around even in the local side. I think this is the first time I have seen Manny Pacquiao put a lot of efforts and prepared for a fight. Physical and mental, he is really prepare for a war because he knows that this will be one of the most dangerous and difficult fight of his career, and for some 'personal' reasons as well.

Just out of curiosity, where do the Filipinos here like to watch the fights? I'm still looking for a place... I don't have a "local barangay" so I need to find a sports bar (not many in Cagayan de Oro)...

Hmm, if you don't have a barangay then I guess the best option is to go to sports bars, I'm not sure if movie theaters will cover this one though. Personally? I will go to our local barangays or to some friends house who ordered this on PPV and watch while we drink RH (Red Horse).

Just two more days to go for the fight... the hype started more than two months back and after that it was a long and frustrating wait for the matchday. Manny started as an underdog, and now he is the favorite as per the odds from majority of the betting sites. Extremely important fight for both of the fighters, especially after all that trash talk.

Latest and final Press conference as of today. We can't wait no longer for this fight lol Pacman's eyes is really sharp while Thurman is still doing his thing making sweet talks to hype the fight out. Thurman said that he is aiming for  a first round KO or 2nd round KO or the 7th round KO.

Tho, you can see that Thurman is slowly realizing who is fighting with (a legend).

The ways that THURMAN  looked much bigger then Pacman did at their face-off today makes me wonder if he will be able to back up all of his talk leading up to this promoting.
Part of me wants to believe he can knockout Pacman before the 8th round like he says but part of me makes me think he is just running his mouth
THURMAN will have more pressure this night but I still think can knockout Pacman

Thurman is an knockout artist and the is undefeated, so that possibility cannot be discounted, especially if Manny get careless.
He probably learned his lesson when he was knock out cold by Marques, though that was a lucky punch of Marquez but that could also happened here.

OK, I should locate a bar that will have it on, I have 3 more days to figure it out...

That's a lot of time. Good luck!

Is this in CDO?

No, its in Angeles City, Pampanga. I don't live there anymore, though.

I've drank about a hundred liters of Red Horse since i moved here, maybe more! Though I do prefer San Mig Light... My absolute favorite domestic beer is SM Super Dry, but its a bit more expensive... All the SM's are pretty good, except SMB.

Keith Thurman said he is looking forward to punching a senator, that is funny but that match will be his first loss.

I never look at Manny Pacquiao as the underdog, I mean it is Manny Pacquiao we are talking about. Keith despite being undefeated, Manny still has that advantage to Keith and that is the time they are fighting. Experience and also, don't forget that it's been a while since Keith fought again. He's been resting for years while Manny is still fighting at that time.

For now, I am looking forward to a great fight. Manny is getting slow but the power and the skills are still there. Despite his age, he is still the pound for pound boxer of the Philippines. Bets will be later in our table with beer and peanuts.

Just 2 days more and the greatest showman exciting tremendous fight lol will be publicly watch.

Have you tried Emperador Light yet? it does have 27.5% alcohol volume and much more good  than Red Horse and Sam Miguel Light also I might prefer the “Banayad Whiskey” lol try watch this —> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpmzmTy_bLU it will make your day.

The fight is quite close now. I looked up Thurman, looks like he got a good chance of winning. But knowing Pac's team, they obviously picked a fight that they also believe they'll win. Can't really tell who will win (every time I've bet against Pacman he won). Only thing I'm sure is this will we better than the infamous fight with Pretty Boy.

Learn from your mistake, you should be on Pacman on this fight, though you are a little late with the good odds but 1.60 is better than nothing.
Hopefully you can decide soon as the odds of Pacman are dropping like the way people drop their money on him.

Good luck, always make a wise decision.

Yeah, it will definitely be fun, and worth drinking in the morning for! Last fight, I was at a budget hotel with mostly westerners and their Filipino wives. The owner of the hotel was playing the fight downstairs in the bar area for all to watch. He was pouring shots of whiskey for everybody, I got pretty fucked up, it was good time to be had by all. The owner was completely wasted, which made him all the more generous with his alcohol. He even gave a couple bottles of Emperador to the staff.

Just out of curiosity, where do the Filipinos here like to watch the fights? I'm still looking for a place... I don't have a "local barangay" so I need to find a sports bar (not many in Cagayan de Oro)...

I believe in CDO(Cagayan de .oro) there plenty of places people do celebrate and watch the game as well,in place near fish port of Cagayan there are multipurpose hall or basketball court to be specific that people watch together,they drink and enjoy the whole fight of Manny and it was sponsored by the city as welk(only the subscription and the wife screed ofcourse not the Liquor)

You can easily find some local place which advertising their own paperview and have some free beers/foods.
But those kind of place are common, some places are on those billiard places which also you can find some people who want to gamble on the fight. (Just expect some beers on every places you will encounter on the fight of Pacquiao vs Thurman)

According to Pacquiao, Thurman is the biggest and best test.

"That's why I want to fight with him. We will give fans a fun fight boxing and a great night,"
one of the PACMAN statements lately.

He probably didn't meant it when he said that. His biggest fight was against Floyd Mayweather. I don't think that the fight against Thurman would come anywhere close to that one. The only opponent who can match Floyd in popularity and hype is going to be Gennady Golovkin. But then, a Manny vs GGG fight may never happen due to the weight difference.

He either make some fake compliments in equal with Thurmans trash talks but deep inside there's a hatred trying to burst out.If not then he might sees the potential of Thurman to give out a good fight.

I think what he meant by "the biggest and best test" is Thurman being the only boxer available who came down knocking to him. I know there are boxers like Terrence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr. on top of the welterweight division but Thurman like what Adrien Broner did is the first one to approach Manny's camp with the agreement. I don't even think that Crawford and Spence have an interest in fighting Pacquiao. Thurman wants to prove that he can defeat a legend while Pacquiao want to show that he still got it so I think that Pacman is right on saying that.

I can feel the intensity with his words. This isn't really a big and the best for him, he's just stereotyping Thurman and probably mocking him with those words the way Thurman talks about him.

We know Pacman and he's down to Earth and a humble guy but when he's starting to heat, he just can't show on how he would badly want to beat the out of Thurman immediately.

Have we seen Pacman very intense like this before? I can't recall him being so aggressive with his words. He used to be "let my fist do the talking", but it seems he is responding from all the bad mouth is throwing his way, very uncanny for Pacman so Thurman might really irked him a lot and that is not good for him, lol.

Knowing Pacman he really give his best everytime he has a fight for his fans. This is another exciting event and for sure less crime and less traffic again for the people of the Philippines. Pacquiao's fight is the reason why filipinos are uniting for the particular day, only 2 days to go.

Maybe Manny was really affected by Thurman's attack here or just wanted to bring more hype in the fight. But the only thing we are sure is that Manny seems to be on a good shape in this fight. His preparation and changes in his training regimen is really evident even at age 40. And from the sparring sessions he done in public he is already in fantastic shape and the hand speed are still there.
