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...
Even if he younger than on his opponent Pacquiao was a great boxer all over the world. This coming fight we will see if who will win in their fight. We see it already in the past fight of Pacquiao that he has already many proven for the boxing.
You're when you said Pacman have improved in his previous fight with Broner but don't forget he won the fight with an eye injury which was said to be severe but his camp never said anything about it and having an opponent like Thurman which was among the hardest punchers things might get worse for Pacman which was the reason why online sportsbook chooses Thurman.

I really hope he will not be hit hard that he will regret of getting this fight. What is his main motive of having this fight at the dawn of his boxing career? He has everything already, yet he feels that he's still in his primetime years.

There is already a thread talking about this fight so it is better that we should focus on that one as what we are discussing here is the same on the first thread.

OP, please lock this thread and you should see to it that the OP you made is not redundant.

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
based their bookies odds, but it can also be a trapped for people to play with thurman as experienced and determinations can still be with Pacquiao, knowing how he loves fighting for the glory of his countrymen, be very careful not being tricked analyze more deeper before betting.

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.
Yeah right, there's still time to analyze and not to fall or if you are really a fan and you love taking the risk betting with Pacquiao will give you a comfortable earnings when he wins it, speed vs maturity will determined who's going to win this match.

Take your side according to what you observe and analyze then enjoy watching the fight.

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?


The basis is that Thurman is undefeated and young as compare to Manny, so the oddmakers put him as the favorite in this fight. But Manny's fans and himself knows that he can still pull the trigger, not like before though, be he still have the pops on his punch. We have seen it during the Lucas and Broner fight. The good thing though, the odds is very attractive, so I'm sure that many boxing afficionados will bet for Manny Pacquiao in this fight. And who knows, maybe the odds will change as the fight get's closer.
Definitely many Manny Pacquiao fans would bite the odds. I'll bet but I think that will be few days before the match to have that verification if the odds didn't really changed at all. Manny still has his winning punch and I've this many times with his other fights where he's treated like this. The crowd's favorite was his opponent but still he won that fight, I can't remember if that's with Clottey or Bradley.

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.

Interesting read: Pacquiao Stands as Underdog vs Thurman
On any sort of analysis then we would able to see on who do have the edge on here in terms of active

training which do focuses on boxing only.We know that the other party(Pacquiao) is really busy with his
current senatorial career which do mainly affect his boxing-no doubt.This is on where they do get up their
odds but we know on what Manny is capable of.

       Yes that's true Manny is 10 years older than his opponent and as far as I know that Pacquiao was trained according to their program and he loves boxing as his passion in life so I don't think Manny will be beaten easily  , and if we try to analyze his last fight is not convincing to stop fighting.

Pacquiao is said to have joined some of the greatest players of all time, something which of course Thurman has not proven to have at the moment, but he has a real chance in this fight. However, Pacquiao is 40 years old, and has proven vulnerable to bad style battles (as are most fighters). But whether Thurman will bring a style that really troubles Pacquiao, especially given the history of his injury, remains to be seen.

That is also true. The previous injuries will likely be making a fighter slow, if a knuckles are already broken Paman may not be able to punch as hard as it was long time ago. The bones in our hands are tiny pieces and once cracked due to the hard punches thrown to any hard heads, these tiny bones deteriorate that a fighter will not punch harder or else he'd get injury in the middle of the fight.

Yeah. It could be the reason for that conclusion plus Manny's attention is not on boxing alone that's why he was considered the underdog. But, I guess Pacman has been considered underdog on his previous fights for the same reason so I guess he's kinda used to that thought already. I know he'll prove he still got it inside the boxing ring. I'm still and always rooting for Manny, may he be the underdog or the favorite.
But he still has a lot of division titles which can proclaim the strength that he has for the past few years. Well then, he got older but it doesn't mean that he's too weak enough or become weaker since it didn't stopped training himself and he's still on his career after all of these years.

Thurman being undefeated I guess is just one of the major reason Pacman turned underdog despite his record being champ in 8 division. you gotta to admit, Pacman isn't in his price and his movement had changed significant'y but the knockout power is there. You can't just ignore the person who knocks guys in the boxing arena who are bigger than him.
I understand that this is now one of the factor that made the odds.

We all knew how gambling strategist moves and sometimes making news favor them,they can easily say that Pacquiao is underdog to gain more bets for Thurman but on the other hand they are betting for Pacquiao lol this is normal in gambling world

And regarding to the Senatorial issue?Manny has enough time to train for the fight and knowing this Great fighter?he will never risk small chance for his opponent when we speak about boxing so basically Manny Pacquiao will still win this fight

Even though there's a huge age gap between this two fighters, we know that the experienced one mostly win with all of the many records on history where experienced age boxers who sculpted through time defeated young challengers with some are also undefeated. We cannot compare age and experience but just have a clean fight.

Even though there are many possibilities that Pacquiao may end up losing in this fight, I am still supporting my fellow Filipino and our Boxing Champ Manny Pacquiao, And I think even though there is much work related with the Senate and other stuff that are not relating Boxing I still think that Pacquiao is not negligence with his own training, He is actually are preparing so hard with every fight he is taking and even in his old age I guess he is still in his prime, And I guess we will see it with experience, And he can come up with a plan and like I said he will see to it that he is not negligence with every detail of the fight.

It's better that he is an underdog he will be motivated to train harder and fight harder and to prove once again that he still has it, I'll still go for Pacquiao not because he is my countryman but he still has the old form he just matured but he is still the Pacquiao that we all knows.

Maybe it's because of Pacman age that's why they are giving him an underdog status, hence on his last to fights, Pacman did show us that he still got the punching power and speed just like when he was still in his prime. I will still bet on Pacquiao over this fight.
