This fight is simply about how much does Thurman have left and how bad does he want it. Thurman is all wrong for Fundora but if Thurman slowed down especially his foot movement and the ability to keep the movement up without wasting to much energy then he will be broken down but even then Thurman has the chance to land one big shot. However if Thurman is not done we will see Fundora being introduced to a whole nother level something he did not face before and his lack of defense and clumsy feet will be on full display.
You need to think if Tszyu had no trouble finding Fundora, Thurman won't either and then it comes down to the shot placement. Is Thurman's punches more thudding and damaging than Tszyu to where Fundora doesn't like how those punches feel when they land?
I've said that I feel like Fundora has learned since his first Tszyu fight and the Mendoza KO loss, though even still, he does continue to get tagged as evident in the second Tszyu fight. Has he made enough adjustments since that one to fight a more disciplined fight vs Thurman?
Overall, a younger Thurman I wouldn't see losing to Fundora in anyway. He's too much better technically and all Fundora would have is the height that he doesn't really use at all since he likes to trade inside. Though an older, less active Thurman kind of balances out the match to be intriguing enough.
Keith has been severely inactive and is 37 years old. Doubt he can sustain that mobility he had plus when he got married he got lost in his woman's vjay.
