Keith Thurman vs. Marcos Maidana.

Thurman got tagged way too much against that hard hitting argentenian (forgot his name). I think Maidana can potentially take him out in the early round. Thurman can win this if he adapts early and fights smart, perhaps even a knockout in late rounds.

Well said my friend. Maidana would KO Thurman, I swear keith thurman is the most overrated fighter in the sport today. Thurman has beaten NOBODY to suggest he is on Maidanas level, the only decent opponent Thurman beat so far is soto-karass, a guy Maidana destroyed quicker. Anyone can look like a one punch KO machine if they are fighting the pathetic level of competition thurman has been feeding on. Maidana would stop Thurman late. People underestimate Maidana so much its not even funny. Diego Chaves had Thurman hurt and failed to finish him. Maidana would have KOed him, he's just on another level.

Thurman's best win in his entire life is a Maidana leftover, now that is pathetic. Jesus Christ Thurman fanboys are hilarious. The guy has absolutely beaten nobody and his fans think he can walk through elite fighters. The truth is Maidana, Bradley, Porter, Provodnikov, and even Guerrero would all beat Thurman. Maidana was hurt by Karass and Lopez......... Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

Thurman deals with him fairly easily. No one "deals" with Maidana easily unless you're Alexander who grabs him every 5 seconds. Maidana stops Thurman, whose power is overrated. Maidana has more experience, he will make it an ugly fight, throw wild shots, and make Thurman uncomfortable and make mistakes.

Thurman has beaten a bunch of nobodies, and it took him 9 rounds to knock out a Maidana left over. LMFAO at delusional Keith Thurman fanboys claiming he can stop Maidana and PAC early. Both of these fighters would wipe the floor with Thurman. Maidana is battle tested, Thurman isn't. Believe me, Thurman will be the one asking for a huge payday on this one, not the other way around. Thurman will run like hell around the ring against Maidana.

thurman has the power to KO anyone at 147, he is a big welter. but maidana also has the power to KO anyone at 147. it's about who lands first. marcos is more experienced i guess that's is the advantage he has here and i think thurman's chin is suspect so i wouldn't be surprised if marcos takes him out early

I think maidana beats him but couple fights down the line Thurman wins via ko

There's no reason for this fight NOT to happen. They're both Golden Boy fighters, and it would be a highly exciting fight between two hard hitting WWs. It'd also be a good test for Thurman. Who you got in this one? After all the upsets Maidana has stacked... People are still talking about him being "a test" for somebody. That just ticks me off.. Who is champ and who is a relatively green contender? Thurman is a test for ****in Maidana get it right. And Maidana takes Thurman into deep water and drowns him.

Thurman knocks him out in 5

I think Thurman's is good enough to avoid Maidana till he (Thurman) eventually hurts him. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android
