Could the Thurman from last night beat DSG?
No. DSG is too cautious.
Thurman's style is hard to beat.
He steals points, then runs without giving you a chance to win them back.
You need a human bulldozer like Spence to beat that style.
Yeah, I think Thurman would still win. The fight would be fought at a much slower pace which would favor Keef.
Porter would have mauled him though imo, possibly gotten a tko.
If that left hook that hurt Thurman came from Danny I think he would not have survived it. Thurman said in a interview that Danny has heavy hands and hurt his arm with a punch and the pain lasted for days. Then he said that he did not know if he could of taken that shot if it hit him in the chin. But... in the Lopez fight Thurman looked rusty, his body did not look the same, lost steam on his punches early, got badly hurt. I wonder how much weight did he had to lose for Lopez. Reminded me of Roy Jones when he came back down to light heavyweight after beating Ruiz.
Danny didn't lose to Thurman by much. If that had been Garcia against Thurman instead of Lopez I think Garcia would have won. If he had Thurman hurt the way Lopez had Thurman hurt he would have finished Thurman off in my opinion. Thurman was slightly better than Porter and Garcia before the layoff but he looked lousy and fragile against Lopez after the first few rounds. I would expect Garcia to KO Lopez with no problem.
I think Thurman would beat him again
Garcia wouldn’t be as active as Lopez was
The only fear is Garcia hits way harder than Lopez and if Garcia would of been the one in the seventh round of last nights fight , pretty sure he would of finished him and got the ko
Not sure if Thurman knew he could handle Lopez’s power but hope he don’t do that with a big hitter
Final reasoning , Thurman wins comfortably against Garcia because he’ll be fighting at his pace imo
Garcia is not as active or aggressive as Lopez, so it would have been a totally different fight
i wish you would realize this when you look at floyds resume full of over the hill fighters. oh well one step at a time
Garcia is not as active or aggressive as Lopez, so it would have been a totally different fight
Thanks for thw response. I guess NSB only focuses on threads about AJ being the sexiest boxer ever (serious).
So you think Thurman would've beat him again looking like that?
