HOLLYWOOD?In three separate instances during a 12-round fight against Manny Pacquiao, Keith Thurman found himself hanging on for dear life.
Throughout his career, Thurman had shown his ability to come back and he vowed to do the same after yielding the WBA (Super) welterweight title to Pacquiao Saturday night at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
?I do know that I?m a true champion. Keith ?One Time? Thurman has always been a true champion. I will be back at the top of the sport of boxing and you know, you gotta go with the flow, take the punches as they come and you get knocked down and you lift yourself back up?that?s what champions do,? Thurman said.
?And like I said, we?re not going anywhere, we will be back and like I promised you guys, Keith ?One Time? Thurman brings the best fights in the welterweight division. Fight me, baby. Fight me.?
