Pacquiao Now Stands as Favorite vs Thurman — Sportsbooks

[robelneo]

Thurman is acting like a bully here, based on his interviews he's putting a lot of weight on Manny but we all know, he shows his stuff inside the right, Thurman was dangerous I don't see him in his best form in his latest fight against Lopez if he will not show in his best form against Manny he is in great trouble.

I UPDATED THE TITLE FROM "PACQUIAO STANDS AS UNDERDOG VS THURMAN" TO "PACQUIAO NOW STANDS AS FAVORITE VS THURMAN" BECAUSE THE RECENT ODDS ON ONLINE SPORTSBOOKS NOW SHOW A SURGE IN PACQUIAO'S ODDS OF WINNING AGAINST THURMAN, THUS THE TURNING OF THE TABLES.

Manny Pacquiao is now 40 years old, 10 years older than his opponent. He's past his prime years. His attention is so much divided, esp. now that he's very much needed in the Philippine senate (yes, he's a senator in his country), as the midterm senatorial elections have just concluded.

Thurman, on the other hand is young and undefeated. He's very hard on training with so much focus just on boxing. These were the main reasons Thurman was favored by online sportsbooks. But things have already changed. Pacquiao is now the favorite.

       Yes Manny now stands as favorite vs Thurman because if we try to look last two fight of Pacquiao , were very evident that He can damage younger opponent , although He's not in his prime but still can throw heavy punch and the speed is not off .

Nice editing,in just almost a month trend has reset and now the odds favoring the Pacman?well as what I’ve expected since the media shown it all,the comparisons of both fighter in their style and speed?all comes favor to Pacquiao no wonder how fast the trendsetting happen.

Just like what Freddie Roach says,Thurman is slower then Heinz ketchup lol 😂

While Manny on the other hand is faster like a bullet 👍👍😍

I don't know how the bookies ever thought that Thurman could be the favorite in this fight anyway, Pacquiao has a crazy record, and has fought some of the all time greats.

Who has Thurman fought? Practically nobody. I think it's going to be a close match, but Pacman should edge it by at least MD, but probably UD.

Not confident enough to bet on it though.

I did some research regarding Thurman yes he is a good fighter in the ring but unfortunately Manny Pacquiao has a good record and proven its potential in the bpxing ring, I'm predicting Manny will win in this match.

Pacquiao is also my bet knowing he has grown old already in the boxing arena. His matured age is not a hindrance because he is still as good as he was before. Thurman may have good records too as a boxer  but i think his boxing skills is still not enough to beat Pacquiao.

Probably the experience was the best factor of Pacquiao to have greater advantages compared to Thurman. Yes, Thurman had commendable records as well, but based on the videos I've watched he's not that great compared to Manny's previous fights. Don't care about Pacquiao's age, just look how he handled himself and you'll be surprised of his power punches.

Regardless of Pacquiao's experience, he indeedly had proven a lot in the field of boxing. He have defeated a lot of undefeated champion and even Floyd Mayweather although he wasn't able to defeat is no more interested in rematching with Pacquiao again. I'm not sure if it's true that Floyd cheated in a game versus Pacquiao.

There will be a rematch one day.It's written. Mayweather loves too much the spotlights and the money for promoters is too big.

There is no wonder about it since Manny is one of the boxing legends. I just think of this as soon as I have read tge title of the topic. Really Manny pacman pacquaio has really the edge over a new guy but an undefeated boxing player. Well going to see it later in when they will meet in the ring.

[finaleshot2016]

Those people who stand on Pacquiao knows that he has the ability to defeat Thurman.

Yes, Pacman already marked a legacy in boxing so there's no doubt why people are choosing him than Thurman.

Manny Pacquiao is a sure Hall of Famer and i think he got nothing to prove to the fight fans around the world. He fight for the passion of boxing and of course the monetary benefit of it because we know that he is a politician in the Philippines and it needed a lot of funding.

He's good and he's still young so it will be a good fight for Manny, the challenger might have something to show up and bring the fight into a much interesting outcome, the fight will bring both fighters to give their best to win against each other.

I hope so they could show some amazing new moves, especially to Thurman since i've seen his previous fight and it doesn't take a chance to stood against Pacman's speed and power. Thurman may have a strong defense not as strong as Mayweather i gotta admit that but if he wants to go head to head with Pacman, i don't think he will last while exchanging some punch at Pacman.

I think with Manny Pacquiao he is more of passion in boxing rather than the monetary benefit he can get from it. He is already the country's wealthiest man so he has gained already huge funds even from his previous fights. But still i'm very excited for his incoming fight with Thurman knowing he is now the favorite against with his opponent.

I think is part of the people opinion is that not bullynis people opinion is came from their analysis, and obviously most of the people bet for many win. For both boxer have an own style in strategy how get win this exciting fight. Of course mynis for many but I didn't under estimate the capability of thurman as fighter he young and power but if the experience basis many is lot.

Pacquaio's popularity gained a lot of supports not just in asia, but also for western countries like US territory. They've been looking for how many managed his boxing career fairly, and as God fearing boxer he used to beat his opponents 100% remarkable.

[xSkylarx]

Thurman may be younger but pacquiao already proved his reputation to the boxing community. He already defeated some world champions before and been undefeated for some years. It's obvious that pacquiao has greater odds on sportsbetting websites. Imo this is just like his previous fights, pacquiao will win and he'll earn more money again.

He's getting a lot of American fans because of his fighting style which is very offensive and bring the fight to his opponent, not boring for short. Unlike other boxers out there wherein we feel sleepy because their style is more of a counter puncher.

Even if he lose, he will still earn big money, but let's hope he will win so he will have more fight before he will retire.
Thurman did think he can beat Pacman and made him retire, that's mouth will be shut when they fight in the ring comes the scheduled fight, Manny will once again win and prove that he is not too old to retire in boxing.

Its not that simple. For sure he will earn a great deal of money even if he loses the fight. But in case he loses it, then his future prospects may be in jeopardy. Getting a good opponent is very important, and Manny will be getting a big boost if he upsets Thurman on July 20th. Also, in case he loses this one, then his fans may not turn out in great numbers for the upcoming fight against Khan.

Because Manny Pacquiao is one of the most recognized boxing of all time and his name will remain and remembered in the next generation or more

And you know why all the upcoming fight of Manny is blockbuster?because no one knows that this maybe the last fight of his career so everyone don’t wanna miss this chance of a lifetime experience

Pacman will beat Thurman,and without trash talk he will bring the belt In his Homeland Philippines

I'm rooting for Pacman to win the fight, though he does not have to prove anything but this win will make him be one of the most valuable in the market again. There's nothing we can ask for him as he already bring pride to his country and he is an entertaining boxer in the ring, so I will go with the old but still a very dangerous fighter.

Interesting read: Pacquiao Stands as Underdog vs Thurman

The way I see in their previous fights with different opponents. I don't find any reason why Thurman would win this match against Manny. Yes Thurman is undefeated but does he fought an opponent with the same caliber as Pacquiao's? None, so I favor Manny Pacquiao's for this fight.

We have almost the same speculation on this fight. Thurman struggle in his last fight while the Pacman cruise to a unanimous decision victory. The only factor that Thurman had in this fight is the disparity of the age but would it be a factor in the fight, let's just wait and see.
