This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I’m worried about Pac by HScorpio
I’m half Filipino, and watching Pac’s earlier fights in the 2000s with my dad is what got me into boxing. Ive seen every one of his fights since he Barrea title fight in 03 or 04. He’s legitimately my favorite athlete.
That being said, I think Thurman has a chance to do some serious physical damage to him. The Marquez KO was bad enough, but Pac was 5 years younger then he is now. He’s looked good in his last few but clearly he’s not in his physical prime anymore. Thurman has elite power and I can see him catching Manny and effectively ending his career. Going to depend on how focused his camp is this time, which has been hit or miss lately.
