Just as the expectation of others that Pacman is the underdog for this match.
So the basis of the odds just because Pacman has become older these days?

I've watch some of their pre-match interviews and I can see that Manny is fired up for this fight. That can be either bad for him as he could get careless or bad for his opponent as he won't have any mercy.
Power, Speed, Experience...still Manny for me.

Getting your point OP, in terms of age gap Thurman maybe much quicker than Pacquiao there's no doubt about that this can be the factor why sportsbooks

Thurman is indeed young, quick and undefeated but pacquiao is a legend when in comes to boxing so he can still be a strong opponent to Thurman. I think it too early to predict that Pacquiao is an underdog because I know he prepared enough for this match.
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 are the main reasons Thurman is favored by all online sportsbooks.

Pacquiao has been the underdog on so many of his fights and this is not something new to him and to us, but based on both fighters last fight, Pacquiao seems to have the edge because he has beaten two of the top fighter in the division, compare to Thurman who had a hard time beating Lopez in his last fight.
We already had a thread here, https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/manny-pacquiao-vs-keith-thurman-on-july-20-5142112. And Pacquiao being underdog has been discussed over there, so I suggest to the OP to close this one, just saying.
i think the OP meant older not younger in this phrase - "10 years younger than his opponent".
we will see how far pacquiao is prepared for this yet another fight of his career. he has nothing to prove anymore. he is already a legend in boxing. what is there to gain for this fight anyway? more money? proof that he can still fight at his age? in any case, still interesting to watch this coming july...

People want a fight that, a showdown with Manny on it. I know there are no more to prove but the fact that it is still exciting gives the fight a chance. It is in his blood and I think as much as he can fight he will not stop and continue this passion. You can't just ignore that and we all are the same. Anyway I will be betting on Manny as he hasn't been letting me down.

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.

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.
