Former welterweight titleholder Keith Thurman jumped on Instagram Live to chat with fans about the upcoming showdown between Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence. Thurman says he’s noticed Pacquiao slowing down in some of his recent training videos and says Spence should have enough to beat the Filipino legend at this point in his career.
“We’re gonna be there live, I gotta see how EJ looking, man,” Thurman said about Pacquiao-Spence. “I think (Spence) got what it takes. I saw some mitt work from Pac Man — he look a little slower this camp, I ain’t gonna lie. We all know he a lil’ older, he looking a lil’ slower, but I hope he give Errol something good, you know…we all want to see that chin get touched.
“Of course I’d run it back with Pac Man, I wanted that run-back this summer. He chose Errol Spence, and his coach said it himself, they said they think Spence is a lesser challenge. They don’t want this challenge no more. He got past ‘One Time’, that’s enough times…he don’t wanna see me two times.”
