"PACQUIAO'S FISTS FELT LIKE A ROCK" - KEITH THURMAN DESCRIBES PACQUIAO'S POWER & WHO HIT HARDER 

He didn’t lose to a 40 year old He lost to a legend

Keith THurman gonna be a good analyst after his career

I think Thurman is going to be a hell of a trainer one day! He can break things down so intricately and explains so well.

Pacquiao's wrists are the same size as Mike Tyson's. Let that sink in.

Perhaps Manny's feet in fast exchanges isn't noticeable. Even bradley said, normally in combinations the first and last shot was the hardest but with Manny every shot is hard. The main reason for that is his coordination, we all notice his fast hands but before he can throw a fast and hard punch his feet needs to be properly set to generate the power. Which means his feet needs to be a little faster than his hands and that calves really helped him do that. Even algieri mentioned that during the fight you'll notice his body is in an awkward position where most boxers isn't capable of throwing a good punch but somehow Pacquiao's punch still has that power. That's because he planted his feet fast that his opponent couldn't even notice. About garcia being good at planting his feet and moving his body to generate that torque, Pacquiao has also shown that in every fight just a faster execution like how he knocked out hatton.

the danny vs keith fight looked like someone was about to get their heads chopped off with the punches being thrown.

I love this man's analogies! So articulate in his examples.

Thurman's legacy has been enhanced in defeat to Manny because he was humble afterwards and took his loss like a champion.Its how you come back that's important,not a loss against one of the best to ever do it.

Take note, Pacquiao was not in his prime now. But still, fists of the Legend feels like a rock. Imagine if he fought him in Manny's prime. That bruised face of him will be converted to cuts like what happened to Dela Hoya, Margarito, Marquez, Cotto, etc. But still, kudos to this man for being a true warrior. He's a heck of an entertaining fighter. 💪

This was an excellent analysis, i always respected Keith Thurmans honesty as a fighter! hope he gets back to where he left off!

pacquiao: Thurman's face felt like a cement

I used to not like this dude, but after the Pacquiao fight, Thurman earned my respect.

keith thurman has fought the best give him his fucking respect

Imagine pacquiao move down to his natural weight class between lightweight and junior welterweight.. We will see trees goin down..

Eloquent, expressive and analytical. He really thinks through his responses and really mean what he says. I always enjoy his commentaries because I can almost see what he is describing in my mind....😇

I think it's a combination of several things including wrist, fist size and bone density. It's mainly a result of the hard jobs he's done since he was a kid and punching wood as a kid without gloves or any protection. These made his bones thicker and his fists resistant to pain and breakage.

Pac has one of the biggest wrist or if not biggest wrist for welterweights. His bones were denser that is why he was able to excel in 8 classes and carried his power.

Nice Onetime .. i hope you be back in the ring .. fighting crawford ..

This Man should be a boxing commentator or analyst and should never leave the World of Boxing even if he retires. 100%

Love Thurman. He's super entertaining! Shout out 2 Danny! We always hit hard over here in Philly!

2:29 tellin you a story why, pacman in his youngest age got into a lot of trouble with his brother in the streets. Whenever he's brother got into a trouble, they call pacman to reinforce. And it became a habit for pacman to punch a banana tree trunk almost everyday to make his fist stronger and immune to pain. Plus, he does it in a regular basis especially after watching his idols such as Tyson, Mexican champ Chavez and of course, Bruce Lee.

"Did they do some Asian stuff?" Yeah, they probably did.

I can't believe he never suspect Manny's legendary calves. That's where the power is harnessed.

Cleto Reyes is known as Punchers Glove.

I was ringside at the Garcia versus Guerrero fight and damn danning garcia's hits were like thunder

In my opinion. The power of Pac comes from his legs. Among all the active boxers, Pacquiao has the biggest calves. Aside from that, he's living a healthy lifestyle to preserve the good condition of his body.

Love you Keith, my inspiration since day one. Keep doing your fucking thing my G!

Being honest against all odds and even your enemy put down some time, it will be your best asset in life and this is another step for Keith to be a great boxing analyst and commentator. Cannot way for you Keith.

He's a humble man Now. Thanks to Pacquiao he Changes peoples character. " He who Exalts himself shall be humbled, he who humbles himself shall be Exalted " Bible Quote

Thurman went from calling Pacquiao a T rexx arms to calling his fist bricks 🤣

I agree with the analysis of Danny. Thats a punching style many Philly guys use. The leverage and torque generated from that style is POWERFUL. They land a few punches and you're like hello!

Keith was Born on November 23 1988 Calculating his personality as an Astrologer Keith is Very Good in Analyzing things since he is 'Part Scorpio and Sagittarius and combine it with he's Year of the Dragon,a Perfectionist guy with the Power of Luck ,as his sign signifies LUCK as a Dragon....Saludos! 👍👌

Watch Naazim Richardson interview when he fought Mosley. He asked manny to punch his hand while manny wrapping his hand and he said his punch is really hard.. and manny has an 8 inch wrist like those heavy weight 😁

Read an article few years ago about Pacquiao's skeleton. His bones are fairly large, so even with a drained physique his bones are able to transfer more force to his arms. Typical of some races of people in Southeast Asia or pacific islands. Short, stocky, large wrists and head, almost comical in appearance but good for scrapping.

I can feel the sincerity of his answer.

Pacman also wrapped his own hands, he could pull on the Goss so hard it tears sometimes which makes it hard as a rock. I seen a video where his coach is talking about how he wrapped his hands like a rock.

Danny got longer reach, making the punch push further and feels heavier. Pac's shorter reach can't bury the weight much, unless he launches his body weight in front with his good foot work.

Dude will have a real good career being a boxing/combat sports commentator or a trainer.

Boxers are in my book, always the most interesting athletes to listen and talk to.

Cant wait for keith to be analyzing fights after his career. He really makes you understand things

4 decades in the game of course his fists will feel like rocks. lmao

It's not about the gloves man. One thing may and pac got in common is that they perfected that snap on their punches with the right distance

Dont need much power if someone has a rock like knuckles. Good interview !

Bruh, he learned so much when he fought pacman, He train his foot work all 24/7

Keith once upon a time Thurman. He would be a good analyst tho.

This was good I want to hear more of 1 time!

Brilliance I love when one time gives analyst he will be a the best co commentator when he retires

Keith Thurman new cut really fits in voice now. Not that I never took him serioously before but now he looks presentable and fit to be an analyst someday

Pacquiao has calcified his fists like some martial artist who specialize on breaking hard objects. I am surprised more fighters are not doing it. Doing push-ups on your knuckles can start the process. The two biggest ones. You can also use a makiwata board.

Much respect Keith a true warrior speaking the truth

Can't wait to see his return, hopefully better than before.

Keith needs his own channel! For REAL!!! He is not bias at all and c!n read these fights!

Spence Thurman Crawford fighting each other is WORTHY of my money. Any of the three combination.

Crawford vs. Thurman let's get it on Thurman all the way💵💵💵

Of all the recent welters, I always thought DSG's left hook was the scariest of all of them. He puts everything into it and he's snappy with it too.

Keith Thurman is a good analyzer. not only by talking but also in action.😊

Even though Keith trashtalked Manny Pacquiao...he still gave our champ a fight before so I respect him for his honesty ❤️

Ugas would be perfect to see where Thurman is at with his skills. Perfect to knock off Thurman's ring rust.

I like this man...excited for his next fight...

Pretty cool how honest Thurman is about this subject.

You almost died in the round 10, when Pac hit you a quick jab at the belly.

I want to see thurman vs Crawford...

The way he analyses is under rated

i love keith thurman hes nice guy watching from phils

Bro keep interviewing Keith mane! Bro be breaking shit down 2 da T

This guy is in his prime.His last fight was 2yrs ago. I remember when the best fought 2-3x a yr

very well said

Keith will make a great boxing analyst someday. 😯 Pinoy fans love you Keith! Time for a comeback, champ!

I guessed what he meant by "asian stuff" is karate chop multiple layers of tiles

Since he's no longer undefeated, I hope Keith fights the best matches available and not pick easy fights.

Big fan of thurman...love listening to him..really good boxer

Manny is a man of focus, commitment and sheer fucking will.

I wanted to hear what he had to say about Shawn porter.

Power comes from his huge Calves.

good analysis

“To be the best you’ve got to beat the best..” and he’s still around watching.. legend has it, he’s still beating legendary fighters up to this day.. unlike the other fighter who’s defeated lots of bums and truck drivers, perfect undefeated record indeed, again what’s this guy name?

Keith , Roy Jones and Holyfield can really break down the elements of the fight game very well.

Fact: Pac has 8 inch wrist. A wrist of a natural heavyweight.

Agreed thurman! The really advantage of Pacuiao is the speed and volume of punches... You can see the face of his opponents after fight😊😊😊

Keith is a Hall if fame fighter. Guy is underrated as all hell. One of the p4p best imo. Needs to fight more though and soon

Little bricks add up to giant bricks 🥊🤯 Stack him up🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊

HEY MANNY IS 42. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 YOU GUYS ARE YOUNGER THAN THE LEGEND. WHAT’S THE EXCUSE ALL ABOUT?🤣🤣🤣🤣

The thing is his speed kills,speed plus good timing plus good accuracy becomes into a dangerous punch,dont matter if u big or small

Hard not to like Thurman, when he's in his humble mode. He's very articulate and will make a great boxing commentator IMO when he retires

That “small brick” still knocked you down Keith.

Many times supposed welterweights said that Manny is not a power puncher or one of the hardest punchers in welter weight. However, it seems 100% of them agrees that he hits hard, although not that hard. Unfortunately, what they usually do not highlight much is that Manny is super fast and hits or punches almost at every angle. What that means is, One will most likely get beaten without them knowing what happened.

This fulla speaks really well analytically. Will make a good TV personality one day

Man I can listen to Thurman all day long

cleto reyes are great

Next Ldbc video: "Whoa Thurman admits, Pacquiao's gloves were loaded with rocks..!"

I want to see this guy fight again!

Good insight don't really see boxers keeping it real like this

Is in it funny how some time back the LDBC were saying that keith was not black enough for them to be a part of them and now that keith has had some good things to say in support of their fav fighters he all of a sudden a wise man. Lol hypocrisy

Look on the PBC YT they showed Manny literally hand wrap his own hands. There’s no cheating going here💀

I really like Thurman alot, big fan of his but dam he needs to get active soon. Two years out the ring and no fight announcement as of yet.

thurman. just so u know, on ur next fight us Filipinos will be rooting for you. 🙏

Clearly he's not over the loss yet

Compact explosive thick bone density big durable skull strong muscular legs and core yeah sounds like Pac-Man lol

He learnt his lesson the hard way but he did learn.

Keith is underated .. he is a genious in the sport of boxing .. i believe in you keith!
