Legit 50/50 fight... But, I got Thurman.

Pacquiao is fighting for a nation. One Time is fighting for Florida. Home of many a Donkey of the Day and/or a thread on the prestigious Coli. (We break stories nicca... S/O to Perk) :mjlit:

He know he gotta definitely represent versus a One-of-One (only 8 division champ, ever...) legend, to allow him to comfortably rep a state that stay in the red.
All that talk was from a place of supreme confidence. :hhh:

Just finished watching the face-to-face interview (Keith was talking slick), the weigh in, and the most recent fights of both of these warriors.
:whoo:
Keith, who I've known (about) since the amateurs, is cerebral and decisive. Manny likes to be an Outie...his lead food is typically outside the lead foot of his opponent's, helping his style work. When you're able to get openings (angles) from your footwork, it opens things up. :sas1:

The problem, is Keith is a cerebral dude. And he's naturally an Innie. His lead food is usually inside or parallel to his opponents, so the footwork battle in this fight will be crucial. :sas2:

Either way, I'm glad we gotta a big boy fight in the middle of the summer. :obama:

Fight parties (rent parties) will be lit this weekend.
:feedme:

I like Thurman but he is good for letting anybody land 1 or 2 big punches on him. I don't think Pacquiao has that stopping power anymore, though.
