I don't know how this'll go..... I think Thurman can definitely hurt Zavec here.

He is... I thought if he went the full 12 against Berto he would have won. He ate a lot on the inside though. If I remember correctly, the cut was from a headbutt... least from what I saw

Lookin forward to this fight and I can't pick a winner here. If Thurman does get past Zavek, I will definitely view him as a serious contender.

I had the pleasure of watching Thurman live on the Broner-Escobedo undercard. And honestly, I wasn't impressed. I really didn't think much of him until the Quintana destruction. If he whips Zaveck, in my eyes he becomes a player in the welterweight division.

BTW, who has the WBO at 47?

Yea that cut was from a butt,but it was ruled a punch..Damn shame too,the fight look to be just warming up..I think Berto's speed caught him off guard..Now he has to be worried about Thurman's power early..But if he can get into deep waters I'd give him a better shot...

if zaveck takes thurman deep i think he could possibly pull it out,i think thurman gonna try to get him out early so zaveck plan should be to survive an see how much this young kid has later in the fight.
