Manny Pacquiao vs Keith Thurman on July 20

[Janation]

How's everybody doing specially my fellow kababayans? 

Good thing that my wife's cousin has set up a PPV so everybody will be rushing to his home and will have some sort of party during the fight. Everything has settled now and there is no stopping this fight from happening and I wish that everyone has already put their bet and let us enjoy the fight !!

Undercard still ongoing, so hyped right now.

My bets are already set, well to my cousin,  in fact most of them lost. Right now I'm with Ugas, want him to defeat another undefeated here. This might be not that PPV but all I know is that we are watching more advanced than those wathching on Channel 2 or 7.

So with that it means that you are betting against Filipino?lol sometimes going to other side will brings you winning as well 😂

Anyway I have missed the first pinoys undercard and now looking forward for the main event.

Ugas has an advantage now and upon watching he’s dominating the ring so if he will continue this movement and strategy?he will beat Figueroa for sure

My cousin called his bets first so I have no choice. I mean I can't go with his bets since we will be having the same bets, you know what that means right?

Ugas is making a good match, and his opponent annoys me. Smiling, taunting him like he's done a great job which he did not. All he does was go close Ugas and make some sucker punches there. For me this is a clear win for Ugas, and yes, Ugas win. Here's the main event, good luck to Manny, good luck to your bets, this will be amazing fight.

Currently watching the fight between this 2 fighters. Thurman somehow can throw some counters and can able to push manny on ropes. What round would see a possible TKO?

And we are seeing how Manny moves to get out of that pinch.

Seeing the punches Pacquiao thrown, Manny is still at the advantage of the score. It is round 7 and I think it is changing since he is now adjusting to MP. We will be seeing some decisive changes in the next rounds that can tell who will be winning. Seeing the fight, I guess there will be no KO.

I cant deny that thurman is pretty tough and have that gap advantage plus having some counters. You are right, it seems we cant really see some TKO here.

According to the CBS Sports, Pacquiao at 67, Thurman at 65. As per The Guardian, Pacquiao at 68, Thurman at 64.

It looks to me that Pacquiao is having a comfortable lead, as per all the sources.

The official scores will be available only after the end of the 12th round.

Edit: After Round 9, CBS Sports have them tied 85-85. Pacquiao leading 86-84 as per the Guardian.

Edit 2: Thurman is badly hurt.

[Vishnu.Reang]

Pacquiao wins Round 10. The only way Thurman can win is if he is able to KO Pacquiao. Now it is 99.99% confirmed that Pacquiao is going to win. But you never know, how these American judges score it in the end.

Thurman wins Round 11. Scores as of now:

CBS Sports: 104-104
The Guardian: 105-103 (in favor of Pacquiao)

Wow very exciting  fight, 1st round by right punch of many, thurman down, so what do you think guys the fight ended. I see the victory of many for this I think didn't goes into round 12, maybe round 6 to 8 the game is over.

[carlfebz2]

Pcquiao wins Rounds 10/11. The only way Thurman can win is if he is able to KO Pacquiao. Now it is 99.99% confirmed that Pacquiao is going to win.

99% win? Im not seeing the same thing. When it comes to points thurman had it and now its already round 12 and the last 2 round scores got by thurman.

Edit: pacquiao wins by split decision.

[Vishnu.Reang]

Fight is over!!!!!

According to CBS Sports, Thurman wins 114-113

As per The Guardian, Pacquiao wins 115-112

It is up to the judges and I think Thurman has the "American advantage".

It can't be a draw, because Pacquiao had one 10-8 round.

[Vishnu.Reang]

OK... Official Results!!!!

Manny Pacquiao beat Keith Thurman on split decision!!!!!

Scores by juror: Pacquiao/Thurman

Glenn Feldman 113/114
Dave Moretti 115/112
Tim Cheatham 115/112

The next fight for Pacquiao is against Amir Khan (Nov 8, 2019 - Saudi Arabia). After that I think it can be Pacquiao vs Mayweather 2 or Pacquiao vs Canelo.

Pacman really proves himself, Good fight for Thurman tho I am really still seeing his eyes(scared) from the weigh in until he got knocked out on the first fight. It was indeed a very entertaining fight. That was actually quite close if Thurman did able to score a knockdown that might turn the table around. Even tho, Pacman won it is still really noticeable that he can no longer do finish it with a KO

Congrats Manny!!!

This is just historic.

I am speechless. This is historic, despite the irritating judge that scored against Manny, this should not be a split decision match. Congratulations to Pacquiao, he lives to his legacy, a 40 years old Manny Pacquiao defeated a 30 years old Keith Thurman. Congratulations to Thurman for that fight, it is a nice fight.

Yay!! congrats to Manny Pacquiao. You proved yourself once again, I don't know what the one judges who score the fight for Thurman was watching. Pacquiao won the first six rounds for me. But I will give Thurman at least three rounds. The knock down was the big difference here. Anyways, congrats to Thurman as well, I thought that he wouldn't last the whole 12 rounds but he did.

Edit: I will let this thread open for the next 24 hours and put your analysis of the fight.

I knew it, Manny Pacman will win the fight!

CONGRATS MANNY "PACMAN" PACQUIAO!!

PROUD TO BE A FILIPINO

Thurman was knocked down in Round 1 so Pacman has a chance to win via split decision even Thurman is a defending champion. Congratulation for those who bet for Manny Pacquiao with a lot of BTC. I win too but it's a small amount of BTC only.

That was the turning point. The first round went 10-8 to Pacquiao, and after that it became really difficult for Thurman to catch up. We expected Thurman to win a majority of the rounds from 8-12 (which he did), but that was not enough to neutralize the advantage Pacquiao gained during the initial rounds. Frankly, no one expected Thurman to get knocked down during the first round. I think he was a bit overconfident (which was evident from all the trash-talk). And when someone does trash talk and loses the fight, it doesn't look good. Thurman's career is pushed back by a few years after this defeat.

For those who missed the fight, here are the highlights (first round known down at 4:20): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ilvczAb5CI

What do you mean Pacquiao has a chance? Thurman is the underdog.

As the casters said, this should not even be a split decision. I agree with them since we are seeing Pacquiao retaliating whenever Thurman make a move. Also, MP owns a lot of rounds, this should not be a split decision, should be a unanimous decision. Any "balato" I can get here? Hahaha. I won against my cousin since I bet a lot to Pacquiao but that is just 500 pesos, like $9-$10

[LogitechMouse]

It ended with a SPLIT DECISION in favor of Pacquiao .

When I was watching it, even Thurman was knocked down in the first round the remaining rounds are favoring to him so what comes to my mind is this will end a close fight / split decision or a draw. 114-113, 116-112, 115-112 I think is the final score.

Now the fight has ended, what are your thoughts regarding the fight and the future for the both of them .

I imagine manny that he will win the fight in my dream. It was true! “age is just a number” manny pacquaio

We filipino’s are super proud. Congrats and Thank you for the another victory you brought to us country! A truly aspiring filipino.

It was a close fight. Manny had two really dominant rounds which was round 1 and the other was where Thurman peddled back after a nasty body shot. The rest of the rounds was back and forth. Thurman is quite lucky Manny isn't 30 anymore.

[nutildah]

That was pretty fun... The crowd went nuts after Thurman got knocked down in the first round. It was hard to hear the announcer on TV, but I did hear him say that it was also "pandemonium" in the MGM Grand. Things got a lot quieter in the middle of the fight. That Manny sure can take a punch. Then in the end, as expected, a win for Pacman. However, at least one of the announcers wasn't too happy that it was a split decision victory -- he thought it probably should have been unanimous.

Well, as I expected Manny Pacquiao will always win his fight. And now officially PACMAN is still undefeated in his boxing career.

LOL wut?

Now the fight has ended, what are your thoughts regarding the fight and the future for the both of them .

This fight tells us an important lesson, that being braggart will bring you nothing . I felt pity for Thurman because I'm pretty sure that on this moment he is now regretting for all the trashtalks he told to Pacquiao. But well, I admit that he is a good fighter as well for being brave to fight blow by blow against a fast opponent so props to him. I also appreciate him because he knows how to humble himself after the fight unlike other fighters such as Broner.  Anyway, Thurman was still young and this is just the beginning for him. His career is not yet over .

Now, what I'm looking forward to is Pacquiao's possible next fight. The interviewer said that the winner between Errol Spence Jr. and Shawn Porter's fight might become his next opponent. That would be an exciting match because those contenders are pretty fast and aggressive too.
