After warning that Manny Pacquiao was to old and should retire, Hall of Fame and legendary promoter Bob Arum didn’t have much to say about the incredible performance the 40 year old  Filipino star put on this past Saturday night.

Prior to the event, Boxing Action Magazine had Manny Pacquiao ranked #3 P4P and Keith Thurman in the 25th spot  much to the dismay of many on social media.

Here is how Boxing Action Magazine’s Jimmy Ayash called the sensational action Fight:

A big night of boxing tonight as we reflect on the 50th Anniversary of the first humans landing on the Moon. The anticipation for the Manny Pacquiao verse Keith Thurman Fight is very high.

As the Eastern United States Battles an epic heat wave this weekend, Las Vegas stages the ultimate battle tonight.

The Pacquiao fans are hoping for at least one more big win from PAC-Man before Father Time catches up with the world famous Filipino Star. Some think that Pacquiao will win by knock out and some close friends who love Pacquiao have stated to me that Pacquiao’s time as an elite fighter is over.

Main Event Time:

Keith Thurman comes out first to the excitement of the Vegas crowd wearing a beautiful Red, White & Blue rope. Thurman is also wearing matching/ colorful red, white & blue glitter trunks.

Manny Pacquiao comes to the ring in a fast ring walk as the fans scramble to catch a glimpse of the legend. Pacquiao wearing a beautiful red with blue boxing rope. Pacquiao is wearing white trunks with blue trim.
