One Time Thurman vs El Azteca Barrios

[rickJen]

How do you think this fight plays out?

Reading from people how Keef is past his prime and all due to inactivity,
this should be seen as a 50/50 fight. Right?

Unless Thurman is totally washed up he wins this easily. Barrios seems like a nice guy and a decent club level fighter but that’s all. Davis fought him for a reason.

Yea I agree...but hopefully Barrios can upset the applecart because all Thurman is is another roadblock to making Spence vs Crawford.

We don't know what Thurman is guna bring, over 2 years out and coming off a loss and in those 2 years has ballooned up and not seemingly doing too much in the gym..

We don't know what Barros is guna bring, he last got knocked out at the weight below.

I'm not going to slate the fight but we really don't know what type of Thurman we guna see. Stinks that this is a PPV.

Why is Thurman fighting a lightweight

Don't know doe. Fans don't seem to care.

Recall that some people angrily objected to the idea of Thurman vs Tank Davis.
"Thurman too strong and too big for Tank doe." Yet here is Keef fighting a guy stopped by Tank.
The inconsistency in these boards is rampant. People are confused, can't make up their minds.

And that would be consistent if you're of the belief that Thurman is done.

But some folks say on one hand Thurman is too big and strong for Tank,
plus the fact they're already talking about Keef's next fight (Crawford/Spence)
virtually already assuming OneTime vs ElAztec is foregone conclusion.
On the other they say Keef would be summarily executed by either Crawford/Spence.
Doesn't make sense.

[rickJen]

So no, I don't think Thurman is done.
He'll still give Crawford and Spence a competitive fight.

Barrios vs Thurman is a huge mismatch. Keef by KO.
