Manny Pacquiao vs. Keith Thurman: Fight date, time, full card.
Eight-division world champion, and one of the sport's top stars, Manny Pacquiao challenges WBA (super) welterweight champion Keith Thurman on July 20 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas in what has the potential to be the fight of the year.
Manny Pacquiao said he had "fun" as he became the oldest welterweight champion in history by beating WBA Super champion Keith Thurman in a split decision in Las Vegas.
Full Report:
Pacquiao, (61-7-2, 39 KOs), the WBA (regular) welterweight champion, fought in January and dominated Adrien Broner to win by a lopsided decision. The senator from the Philippines showed up to the Errol Spence Jr.-Mikey Garcia fight in March and even stepped inside the ring at the request of Spence, who was pushing for a fight with the legend.
But, the 40-year-old Pacquiao decided to shift his focus to Thurman, instead.
Thurman (29-0, one no-contest, 22 KOs) made a triumphant return to the ring after a 22-month layoff due to injuries, one week after Pacquiao beat Broner, and defeated a game Josesito Lopez by unanimous decision.
