Personally, I think it's a close fight because Thurman in hitting in the 2nd half of the fight, I think we should not question the judges and we should be happy that he won the fight, I can say that it's a hard fight for Manny as Thurman is not backing down like his previous opponents, and with that, he gained respect from Manny.
I'm with the same race of Manny and wanted to be not biased here. I supported Manny Pacquiao on his fight and bet on him but I think it's a close fight. If they really watch the whole fight, Pacman also received heavy blows on Thurman, that's why it's split decision. Actually, Pacman can lose the fight if he didn't knock out him on the first round of the fight via unanimous decision because Thurman is a title holder.
