Thurman vs. Brook.

Thurman may have been overhyped but he's still a talented top level fighter. Brook imo is suffering the same hype treatment that Thurman had before, won't be soon until he's getting slagged off too.

Brook by UD/ SD. Maybe even KO. Brook - advantages better foot work faster hand speed better counter puncher equal or decent punching power better jab taller fighter better defense better outside fighting better inside fighting Thurman - advantages harder puncher stronger I used to think that too, about the punching power but I think Brook, at the world level, hits just as hard. In terms of strength, I think Brook is stronger, he is one of the most physically imposing welterweights out there. I don't think Thurman is, again, at the world level. He can intimidate mediocre fighters but I don't think he has the strength to push back too many top welters.

It always cracks me up how dramatically the perception of a fighter can change after one fight.

Brook. He beats any welter not named Floyd imo.

Brook by UD/ SD. Maybe even KO. Brook - advantages better foot work faster hand speed better counter puncher equal or decent punching power better jab taller fighter better defense better outside fighting better inside fighting Thurman - advantages harder puncher stronger Brook is stronger but Thurman has faster hands

Brook beats him comfortably. I don't see any advantages Thurman has except a slight handspeed advantage.

Brook by late stoppage or wide UD. Think Cotto - Margarito I. Keith's too easy to stalk atm.
