Manny Pacquiao vs Keith Thurman on July 20

[nydiacaskey01]

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.

He is in good shape for this fight, we can see the videos being uploaded about his sparring and training. Thurman trash talking has no effect on Manny. We will see on Sunday if Thurman can really walk the talk.

Manny as the underdog of this fight before but suddenly Manny is now on top. There should be a good reason why they changed the odd that favors Manny. Whatever that is, its not good for the Thurman camp. I remember Thurman announcing that he made a bet on him self.

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.

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.

That is proven all almost all people herein in the Philippines stop woking and watching their idol fight.

Correct even many is busy to their job as senator mininzed their time both work and training, and many paquiao at 40 nithing change their movements before their younger age and his body really good and more shape improvement.

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.

Listening to the press conference, i think Manny Pacquiao is affected by Keith Thurman's trash talk and it is good for the fans because the killer instinct of Manny has been awaken by Thurman and it's not good for him.

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.

He's mad as told by his coach in the past months and I think these trash talks are not new to Pacquiao it is just that the way Keith said his trashtalk, it is like personal.

I know that this will be a good fight since Manny is again fighting another undefeated boxer, and the fact that he is mad when Thurman says that this will be Manny's last fight before he hangs his gloves, that will really make everyone mad. I know that that is how they hype the fans for the fight but I think that gone overboard. Tomorrow is a big day for Pacquiao since that is the day he will be giving a knockout to an undefeated boxer.

Maybe he is paid in free shawarma for life.

And a bag of soap.

On the early stage of his career, we really cannot say that it is his biggest test, but on the current state of his career we can really say that it is "one" of the biggest test. Pacman has nothing to lose right now but he still wanted to prove to everyone that this is what he loves to do and he is being passionate about regardless of what age a person can be. And that doesn't hold the bars.

If Pacman will win then it will be a really big breakthrough for his career.

Correct,  Pacman has nothing to prove anymore and the fans would accept if he loss in this fight, both of them can make money but Thurman's possible first loss is too big as a gamble since he is still young and he can still fight champions in boxing.

But, let's forget about their reputation, let's focus on what they can bring in the fight night.

I think he is affected but not that much and instead if getting affected, the trashtalking attitude of Thurman lead him to motivate more in training and its just Pacquiao is not that fluent in English that is why in the press conference, he is somewhat affected of the trashtalks.

Pacquiao is confident at that time with a smiley face and I think he is 100% ready for his fight.

Never seen the press conference (final presser?) But if indeed it's true that Manny Pacquiao is affected by Keith Thurman's trash talking then we might see the old Manny and being the aggressor here. I wanted to see the old version of Manny like in the Marquez fight wherein he goes for the juggernaunt in the early rounds.

Also you mentioned that killer instinct which many boxing fans says that Manny has no longer had. I'm sure it will resurface again in this fight or boxing fans have seen it already during his televised trainings that's why the odds really changed on Manny's favor. Just two days to go guys!!!

[mich]

Both of the guys PACMAN and 1 Time look very confident in this press conference.
Honestly the entire fight bill looks to be one with knockout potential so Im really looking forward to this

Let's hope it will end up that way as it's been a long time that we did not see both fighters have knock out an opponent.
This is going to be an interesting fight, with the hype around, I think that really helps a lot and this is good for them as they can make big money for this fight.

Speaking of Pacman, I think he ought to retire and focus on his son career after his fight with Thurman and Amir this year cause the injury he had during his fight with Mayweather  seems to weaken him somehow but the result of tomorrow fight against Thurman will make come to a conclusion.
Pacman might have nothing to prove anymore but him rewarding the fans that bet their hard earning on him this time should be enough.

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)...

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)

Yep, I found one, there's a middle eastern food place downtown that is advertising it, along with a free plate of shawarma for your entrance fee, lol. Sounds pretty good! There's actually only 2 billiard halls here and they both open late. Maybe there's smaller ones that I don't know about. Speaking of shawarma, which Filipinos seem to love apparently (there's at least one place in every mall) (?), saw this billboard the other day:



Didn't think he was so hard up for cash already, lol. Maybe he is paid in free shawarma for life.

A fighter with huge business mind like May weather won't sign a deal of free shawarma for life cause I'm sure he will go for something more better.

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

I understand you clearly but I want you to know that I'm also a fan of Pacman and I also supported him during his previous fight against Mayweather  which is why I choose Thurman as the winner of this fight because there some fighter which Pacman can't beat now even when he's in shape and Thurman pose such fighter attributes.
Meanwhile, you shouldn't think Thurman is running his mouth cause his previous fight is enough to give me confidence/experience needed to beat Pacman and if you recheck the face-off you'll see than Thurman seems calm and ready for the fight.

one of the PACMAN statements lately.

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.

I don't remember too, I just watch him during his fights but not all of those times that he has to go with press conferences before. Are you also feeling the intensity that I've felt with those words?

I think it's easy to feel it because we are aware on how Thurman talks and on how Manny replied to his words before along with the opinion of Coach Freddy Roach. Manny just can't reply directly on what he really feels and words through street talk.

Though it's a memes it does not mean Floyd would step back into the ring to fight Manny. We know Floyd is now a promoter and also a friend of Manny which makes the anticipated second fight between them is almost impossible.

He probably got well paid for these though, and it sure as hell beats training for several months and getting fit in the face.

Sure, it's not $100+ million, but it isn't 3 months of camp either. A few hours of his time and probably a couple hundred grand, not bad.

Last day to place our bets with two of our favourite boxers in the world, Manny Pacquiao vs Kieth Thurman.



Odds are really favoured for manny and thurman just really getting higher and higher for his odds. All predictions bets manny to win (I hope so ), but thurman is not that easy to fight with because of his undefeated record. Let the greatest showman begin.

Lol, surprised to see Floyd with that Shawarma advertisement. As far as I know, I have seen shawarma in mid 90's already here in the Philippines and yes people are swarming up to this day to get one. So just that one free shawarma with Red Horse while watching the fights. 

Anyways, everything is all set now, even here in the Philippines and both fighters are ready for a WAR!!! Thurman tries to intimidate Manny but he has gave Keith a taunting smile. Both fighters weigh-in at 146½ pounds and Manny looks very sharp.

I think I will just watch this fight instead of betting . If you really want to bet, I think its better if you place into both of them because this game is a 50-50 fight. You can't predict who will win in this fight because of some reasons.

Thurman is undefeated and he will do everything just not to get out of the ring with a loss and on the other side, Pacquiao is very confident and motivated into this fight and at the age of 40 he wants to say that he can still fight even and age is just a number for him.

Odds are really dropping, I think that will be the lowest as it's already game time tomorrow.
Probably the line would not drop below 1.50 for Pacman, and that's too low considering the starting line for him, people should regret if this is an easy win for Manny for them not betting on the odds early.
