    You do remember correctly. Keith does have the tools, mind, and experience. It's the body I'm worried about. And he's always had a good work rate, so I'm not worried about giving rounds away. If Keith had a fight in the last year I'd be giving him more of a chance. Hopefully, Dan Birmingham will make sure he's prepared. Body, mind, and spirit.
    How can you prepare a fighter properly who has been out of the ring for nearly two years, is past his prime and is fighting arguably the best light middleweight in the division? As soon as Tszyu lands a solid punch on Thurman he will immediately feel his age and his long layoff. This is a final cash grab for Keith and nothing more.

        Definitely a tough, if not impossible task. But, Keith has been boxing since something like 8 years old. And he's come back after several long layoffs and looked good (not perfect) every time. If he's been in the gym a lot over the past year and getting good sparring he has a slim chance. I think Tim is going to be too much for him, but Keith is skilled.

            I hope you're right. I always liked Thurman until he disappeared for large periods at a time. He was once a solid high ranking pro. I have serious reservations about whether he can get back to anywhere near that form after such a long hiatus and being 35. I'd like to see Keith put in a good performance, even if he loses, for his sake as well as Tim's so at least it would be somewhat valuable for Tim in his ascension.
