Who won the Pacquiao vs Thurman fight?

On July 20th, 2019, history was made as legendary Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao defeated undefeated American boxer Keith Thurman to claim the WBA Super World Welterweight Championship belt. The fight, which took place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, was a highly anticipated event in the boxing world, with both fighters hoping to add another title to their already impressive resumes.

Pacquiao, who is known by many as one of the greatest boxers of all time, entered the ring as the underdog, despite being the reigning regular WBA Welterweight Champion. At 40 years old, many believed that Pacquiao’s best days as a boxer were behind him, and that Thurman, who is 10 years his junior, would prove to be too much for him to handle. However, Pacquiao proved the doubters wrong, displaying his trademark speed, accuracy, and power to wear down Thurman and secure the victory.

The fight was a closely contested affair, with both fighters trading blows and landing some heavy punches throughout the 12 rounds. Pacquiao started strongly, knocking down Thurman in the first round with a powerful left hook that stunned the American fighter. Thurman, however, showed tremendous grit and resilience, bouncing back in the later rounds to make things difficult for Pacquiao.

In the end, it was Pacquiao who emerged victorious, winning a split decision from the judges. The Filipino fighter was extremely pleased with his performance, calling it one of the best of his career. “I proved that at the age of 40, I can still do it,” Pacquiao said after the fight. “I’m not done yet. I’m still here.”

The victory was another incredible moment in Pacquiao’s storied career, which has spanned over two decades and includes numerous world titles in multiple weight classes. Pacquiao is widely regarded as one of the most exciting fighters in boxing history, and his win over Thurman only solidifies his reputation as a true legend of the sport.

In conclusion, the Pacquiao vs Thurman fight was a thrilling event that showcased the best of what professional boxing has to offer. It was a bout between two world-class fighters, each with their own unique strengths and styles. In the end, it was Pacquiao who emerged victorious, adding another title to his already impressive collection. Boxing fans around the world will remember this fight for years to come, as the night when Manny Pacquiao once again proved that he is one of the greatest fighters of all time.
