Thurman vs Zaveck?!?

Isn't Thurman 154? Its was a 152 Catchweight. Kieth's a career 147 fighter.

It would be a good test for Thurman.

why would anyone have zaveck in their top 5? well besides tunney for obvious reasons. 147 ain't exactly stacked these days.

Damn, Zaveck is going to get ****ed up. The bet isn't on whether Zaveck or Thurman will win, but which round will Thurman take Zaveck out?

Zavec's in the top five-ten on most 147 lists. This would be a good win for Thurman. Though break for Zavec though. Loose your title to a guy that fails his drug test in his next fight. Come back against a banger like Thurman. Good luck to him. why would anyone have zaveck in their top 5? well besides tunney for obvious reasons.

Isn't Thurman 154? His last fight was at 154. He can make both though.

Thurman is still a prospect, but after this he'll only need a razor tight decision to equal 2x champ Berto's resume

Not bad, HBO has been doing worse with Broner. I hope this fight happen.

WTF is Kim's problem? 2012's prospect of the year is stepping up to the plate fighting against his first ranked contender in a fight that can put him in position to land his first world title shot. GTFOH with the hate.

Looks a decent match-up to me. Not so sure why Kim is hating on it.

Just seen this on Steve Kim's Twitter: @stevemaxboxing: Thumbs up or down on Keith Thurman vs Jan Zaveck on HBO? I guess in an age of lowered standards some will really like it... #boxing It's not a bad fight. Don't know why he doesn't like it. If it is not Top Rank, he dont like it.

I love this fight,a nice chance for Zaveck(who I believe deserves one),and a good solid test for Thurman...Make it happen cappin... Agree with this, had his eyes held up he could've beaten Berto. Good test for Thurman at WW, see how he looks after how he dominated Quintana at JMW.

steve kim is an *******. he was bashing chad dawson saying he shouldnt be anywhere near a p4p list. one of the writers who discredits boxers

I like Thurman. Looking forward to it.

I like this fight. Maybe Kim is becoming a boxing snob & doesn't have time for B level fighters anymore.

This isn't too bad. I just hope its not a main event... We all know how HBO is hyping up Thurman so I wouldn't be surprised if it was. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

IDK what Kim is bitching about. Thurman is still a young fighter who hasn't accomplished anything, and Zaveck is a solid WW. I was hoping that Bradley fought Zaveck as a stay-busy fight.
