    OK, but he didn’t struggle with him. How many inactive 36-year-old fighters perform as well as Keith did? Have you watched either of Thurman’s last two fights? Go check them out.
    Yes he did look good in the Barrios fight , I’ll agree to that but still very hard to duplicate when inactive
    Just not sold on him

      I didnt think Keith had it in him. He gained road warrior status. Tszue never looked so good on the road.

        Good to see Thurman back. But for how long til he suffers another injury?

          I thought he looked decent before he left, and after today, I still think the same.

          I hope he can be in the mix.

            Good to see Thurman back in the mix. Showdown with Spence would do good imo

              Thurman doesn't stop ranked fighters, at lower weights, I highly doubt it starts now.
              KOs disappear when you're fighting some of the best in the world and/or guys with great chins.

              Tszyu is neither. Extremely chinny and easy to hit. Dropped by two guys who were mid punchers on his way up.

              Thurman blasts him out of there.

                Not really. KO artists KO ranked fighters, Thurman doesn't do that because he's not that.

                Tszyu's not very good so there's that and he could win for that reason but I see nothing to suggest Thurman stops him. I don't think he's ever stopped a ranked fighter in his entire career he's barely even dropped any so starting that at this stage of his career at a higher weight class is just not likely.

                  Let’s not kid ourselves , he beat a guy who was undone by Paro as his only notable opponent
                  This is probably spot om, we can't say much about where he is from this bout, and we may never see him again compete against world fighters. But who knows, maybe he hit himself again on his head and rearranged it the right way lol.

                      Thurman has a lot of experience. As long as his body holds up, and he stays in real good shape, all he has to do is let his hands go, and he'll be alright, he'll make some good money b4 he retires
