Who wins? Can Thurman shock the world and knock Floyd out with a well-placed punch like Tarver did in the rematch against Roy Jones?
Thurman leaves himself open swinging haymakers those haymakers only catch Soto Karus type fighters. He gets counterd , held to death and pot shoted to a losing 12 to 0 UD
This is a fight I'd love to see, because it would provide Floyd another opportunity to show why he's the best. He would make Thurman look like a fool over and over again.
Then again, Floyd is finished trying to prove himself, and he won't take on a threatening opponent ever again.
1. You just said Floyd would make Thurman look like a fool. I agree. It isnt a tough fight.
2. You said Floyd is done facing threatening opponents. Thurman isnt a threat, and Floyd doesnt see him as a threat. I think its a cherrypick. They asked Floyd about him once, and he laughed. Then talked about Thurman needing some growing to do. Its a bum fight to me. The kid isnt fast or anything. Just beats bums to way he's supposed to.
Thinking and knowing are two different things, so I think we'll know more about Thurman after Guerrero. I'm expecting Thurman to win impressively but we'll see.
I agree, that'll give us a better idea where he stands against the top guys. However, I like Keith but I can't see him beating any version of Floyd, even this old one today.

Na, Floyd's Chin > Roy's Chin.
Plus Floyd would see Thurmans big punches coming a mile away, think he'd miss a bit too much. Maidana landed as much as he did because he was brawling and throwing awkward punches, Thurman wouldn't.
He might be able to jab the crap out of him though.
