A lot can change within a decade. Ten years ago, the world of struggle was close to the upcoming (some, as they would say tardy) Floyd Mayweather – Super Fight Manny Pacquiao, which will go down in May. Now, a decade later, both Mayweather and Pacquiao have long been retired. Another shiny star from that era will return to the ring on Wednesday in Australia. In the case of 30-1 former welterweight titles, Keith Thurman, he will return after three years of absence to face the little-known 22-1 Brock Jarvis in the planned 10th round in Aussa, the homeland of Jarvis.
Thurman, in his splendor, was an attraction. A hardly striking, intelligent and disciplined warrior, native Floridian was both popular and respected. His colorful personality made the man captivating beyond the ring. Regardless of whether he put on a beard and ponytail or played wooden in a local park, Thurman was undoubtedly one of the more fascinating fighters in the industry. Indeed, the only man who ever beat Thurman was the legendary Pacquiao in his last great performance. Suffice it to say that the fight was very close as long as the last bell rang and Pacquiao went away with winning the decision.
Thurman fought only once since losing to Pacquiao and it was a performance in 2022 against Mario Barrios. Thurman won his thighs tonight, but he has not fought since then. In fact, Thurman was a part -time warrior for most of his career, a great athlete forever suffered by injuries. It was so bad for Thurman and it’s a pity for fighting fans. However, if it impresses Jarvis, the possibilities can be presented for the former Hotshot in welterweight. For example, there is a potential raucous fight with Tim Tiszu. First of all, Thurman must pass by Jarvis and avoid injuries.
As for Jarvis, the 27 -year -old is now looking at a chance for his whole life. Victory over the venerable Thurman will certainly place his name on the map. And at the age of 36 and inactive, or able to get livid in Australia. What’s more, all Jarvis’s 22 wins brought a knockout, so at least the guy knows what it is like to end the things earlier. Despite this, Keith Thurman is still older and less lively Keith Thurman … a man who should never be disregarded.

Amir Khan condemns the “risky” chase of Manny Pacquiao against Mario Barrios, questions Barrios’s merits and is self -introducing himself to the return plans

Amir Khan says that the 46 -year -old manny Pacquiao should not face the WBC WBC HEADE Master Mario Barrios in his fight for the return of July 19. Khan believes that this is a “challenging fight” for Pacquiao (62-8-2, 39 KO) due to his age and inactivity and because he fights with much younger 29-year-old Barrios (29-2-1, 19 KO). 38 -year -old Khan suggests that Pacquiao should fight Barrio instead, because then the clash would be more equal because both are in retirement.
WBC attracted Heat this week with a decision about the inactive pacquiao ranking No. 5 in welterweight. He has not fought from 2021, and his last win was in 2019. Fans perceive this as a crime so that WBC will give Pacquiao ranking No. 5 after four years of inaction and losing to Yordenis Ugas. Manny took the performance of Rohan Polanco and Eimantas Stanionis. These two warriors would probably destroy what was left of Pacquiao.
“Barrios” deserves “?
“This is a fantastic fight for Mario, it needs a great fight. Will receive a good payment And fighting a legend such as Manny Pacquiao, “said Amir Khan Sky sports boxing Pacquiao is fighting for Mario Barrios.
Barrios will earn a lot of money and he may even lose. In his last fight with Abel, Ramirez looked infernal and was never an impressive warrior. His losses from Gervonta Davis and Rustict Keith Thurman showed that he is below the average.
“Mario deserves this fight because every warrior wants this great day. I don’t know how much manny remained in him,” said Khan. “If they were at the top, at the top, I would say Many Pacquiao all day. But it could be a challenging fight for Pacquiao.”
I don’t know about Barrio deserving to fight Pacquiao. Where in his career Mario did something special that makes him deserve a gigantic payment against the former world champion with the eighth Pacquiao? Barrios’s CV is quite empty.
Barriosa wins the best
– Yordenis Ugas – 37 at that time, bringing a knockout loss with Errol Spence
– Botirzhon Akhmedov
– Fabian Maidana
– Devis Boschiero
– Santiago
Barrios is a textbook definition of a paper master. He was raised to his status WBC Wytetreteright Waklethight, and then fought with a dubious draw against the journeyman Abel Ramos in a fight, which according to fans should lose. Now he is going to fight Pacquiao. Khan says that Barrios deserves Pacman’s fight, but I don’t see him deserve anything other than deprived.
Khan’s first move?
“I am sure that he will want to win this fight because it can change his life,” said Khan about Barrios. “If I advised Manny, I wouldn’t say to come back. You should go back to someone who is already retired, someone like me.”
Pay attention to Khan’s selfish tactic in the fact that he puts his own name in Pacquiao lottery. Khan should be elated with Barrios that he will get such a great payment against the still popular retired 46-year-old Pacquiao, instead of trying to justify him fighting him. Khan’s impoverished results at the end of his career make him not suitable for Pacquiao. Before retiring, he lost two of the last three fights. Pacquiao has nothing to get from the fight with Khan because he is looking for world titles to add to his heritage. The fight against the washed 38-year-old Khan, who has not fought since 2022.

Deontay Wilder will become a heavyweight champion again “

Deontay Wilder will regain the heavyweight title, says a former opponent only to World Boxing News.
Eric Molina, who divided 25 minutes and three seconds in the ring with Wilder ten years ago, says Wilder has power to hit the master’s status twice.
Wilder has a needy run, winning only once since 2019. He returns on June 27 against Tyrrell Herndon, trying to make two wins of six duels.
The brown bomber was once the most -talked knockout artist around the world. However, his star disappeared significantly since the trilogy with Tyson Fury.
This lonely victory against Robert Helenius occurred after two paralysis from Fury. Then Wilder faced Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang, losing a unanimous decision before detaining the Chinese Yuggernaut.
Molina, who twice, hit the canvas against Alabama Slammer in Bartow Arena in Birmingham, believes that Wilder still has a lot to offer sport at the age of 39.
“Of course, these last two fights were not the best result for him, but to be straightforward, Parker and Zhang were very tough fights for him,” said Molina World Boxing News.
“I think that the style of the duel did not suit him, mainly because of the size of Zhang and Southpaw’s attitude, as well as with Parker’s boxing skills and athleticism.”
When asked about choosing the opponent of Wilder, “The Drummer Boy” replied: “I think this is a good move for Wilder.
“I think it’s a great opportunity for him to work on some things and go out and try to do them.”
Many consider Fury to be a significant reason for the fall of Wilder after the couple divided three brutal duels in 2018–2021.
However, the former weight master in Texas and a two -time claimant for the world title say that critics cannot write back Wilder because of their KO’s abilities.
“I don’t think he should have retired after fury. I think he can connect him and become a champion again,” Molina predicted.
“Why not? Others did it in the history of boxing in weighty weight. Thanks to its power, he can definitely improve some things, go forward and become a champion again,” he added.
Molina, who changed the professional in 2007 on the Mandalay Bay combat card in Las Vegas, had 38 matches during her professional boxing career, but ends with its term.
He challenged Wilder and Anthony Joshua in raucous fights for the title of world champion and has a boxing record 29-9. Molina says that one last chapter may take place.
