    Nobody stopping Keith "One Time" Thurman!

    I don't see Mayweather, Pac nor Bradley going anywhere near "One Time".
    May, Pac, Bradley will use the excuse as he doesn't draw enough and they have nothing to prove.

    To me Thurman is capable of Ko'ing anyone at 147.

    His defense is a little underrated but he's not hard to find. It'll take a boxer with good pop to stop him or even just get a decision. He has good stamina though, he impressed me against Zaveck.

        Very overrated kid and very green still. I don't know how good he can get but I think people are enamored by his power and think that's all there is to boxing.

        He isn't that good. He's a good young prospect but he's been pushed along on the national stage very fast.

          He isn't Berto, this dude is already twice the skill of Berto and actually has legit power, not flash power.

            I'm not sold on him yet, but I definitely won't miss his fights. He has shown some real toughness so far, and I've just been overall impressed. I doubt he'll remain at
            147 for much longer.

              agreed, he is filling out really fast.

                Berto was a very good contender before he lost to Ortiz and Guerrero and now he's a bum...lol

                Berto was a huge puncher at that weight, very fast and very athletic. Watching Thurman, he's similar in that he's limited in his boxing, depends on his power a lot and people are falling in love with that they way they did with Berto.

                He fought a tough guy in his last fight, but he was dead weight. He didn't offer any offense back and Thurman was let off the hook. He's not ready for the big names at 147 let alone 154.

                  I thought people stated that Berto was a overrated bum in which is why Pacquiao choose to fight Shane Mosley instead of the young undefeated, WBC champ Andre Berto.

                    You said Thurman already has TWICE the skill of Berto, I mean come on lol.

                    He's a big puncher but we haven't seen anything from him to make a statement that nobody at 147 or 154 can beat him, let's be real here.
