Comments Thread For: Thurman: I Learned A lot From Watching Floyd Mayweather

I just read he was praising Mayweather in another article How much he learnt from him and all Yeah you got to be, especially when you are the one being hunted. When you are hunting someone the easiest thing to say is "He is ducking"... Once you get to the top then you would see that things are different. He use to criticise Mayweather and Paulie M, now he praises them.

... he didn't learn how and when to hold... Yeah exactly I just didn’t get that , like really your not even going to attempt to lean on him Tell you what though , I know Lopez is not the heaviest puncher , but Keith’s got a pretty good chin Some other fighter would of gone down from the accumulation of punches

Yeah not claiming he is on the same level as Mayweather, I just see what i saw in Mayweather in terms of boxing more in the latter stage of his career. Keef is doing the same "Boxing" more now than looking to KO someone "One time". I just read he was praising Mayweather in another article How much he learnt from him and all

There is no comparison, Mayweather is leagues above him and everybody else in the WW division.

I think his style has evolved from “One time” to “box time”, he is doing things the Mayweather way. But I remember how he use to criticise Mayweather. There is no comparison, Mayweather is leagues above him and everybody else in the WW division.

are you new to boxing? just trying to make sense of your statement? I owe you an apology I couldnt see how Lopez could do anything to Thurman and just thought you were blinded by faith. Dude nearly knocked Keith the f#uck out

Even with rust he’s busy enough to outpoint a 40yr old pac. If he wear pac down & Father Time catches him in the ring Thurman May clock stop pac.

lol ya I am, but I cant stand canelo if that changes anything. Lololololol :beerchug:

I’m just saying you are Mexican.Am I right?:439:lol ya I am, but I cant stand canelo if that changes anything.

Let's see some pull counters! :D But yeah, interesting to see how Thurman will look after all this. I think he will be quite rusty there but will get the win anyways

I was reading along until he mentioned Antwun Echols....WTF??? He was 4-17-3 to close out his career and got stopped 14 times during that period...what did he learn from that loser....LMAO!!!

Thurman wouldn't even beat Pacquiao at this point. His power is overrated and as soon as Pac tagged him, he'd turn into "Run Time." The guy is a mediocre fighter capitalizing off of a weak division and ducking Spence and Crawford. He's married though, folks!

you learn to run and call it defense Baby ..BUM Runner you didn't beat Garcia, you didn't beat Porter perhaps a draw in both and you claim yourself elite???HMMM you will lose against Crawford or Spence even Mickey Garcia will starch you, unless Vegas mafia allows you to keep running and call it a victory using defense....

I hope josesito roughs up this manwhore of a coward. Hit that shoulder, f him up for being a sissy Wait why’s he a coward bc he was gone the last two years?

Please, 23 year old Canelo put Prime Josesito Lopez to sleep Dont do this to yourself. Bragging about beating Lopez is not a good look.

Thurman needs to build up his confidence. Thurman has been out of the ring for about 2 years now so give him some time to build back up his confidence. No one comes back into a sport after a long lay off performing the same way. Also for those people trying to compare Thurman to Canelo. Thurman will never be a Canelo nor does he have the power of Canelo so I don't think Thurman will knock out Lopez. It will be a very good fight for Thurman to knock some rust off just hope he isn't scared to let his hands go because of injury.

I dont want Thurman to lose mainly because I want to see how far he will take this ducking Spence thing. At least Bowe didnt hide it, he clearly didnt want to fight Lewis and even went as far as to throw the belt in the garbage when the WBC mandated him to do so. Made no excuses, didnt say Lewis wasnt worthy or that they would fight later. He just said fuck it, you ain't forcing me to do shit I actually respect that more.
