    Jesus Christ, talk about hype. Lets see:
    *Boxing skills? Nope, at least not yet. He ****s a bit, jumps around but nothing to write home about.
    *Speed? Not really.
    *How about defense? Nope, you can throw a dead cat and it still lands on his face.
    *How about power? He landed on Zaveck during all 12 rounds, he did, Zaveck is no Floyd Mayweather Jr., yet he didnt hurt him nor did he KO him in spite of a 1st round kidney shot that should have been the end of him.

    He's got no significant KO power in those punched, other than puffing like Maria Sharapova with each punch.
    He's no normal ****er for sure, because he's hardly a ****er at all with the punching power he's shown so far, KO nobodies and failing to KO the first guy that somewhat knows how to keep his hands up during a fight.

    Keep drinking that haterade. When he beats chaves, you better not be making excuses, and calling Chaves a bum.

    I want a 500 word apology right after Thurman looks impressive against Chaves. Deal?

    If he loses, or looks lackluster, I'll retract my statements, and apologize to you.

    I'm a fair guy.

      Im fair too and I dont hate anyone, even if I think Thurman is being spoon fed crapy fighters to build him up and I think his last fight wasnt all that wonderful you seem to think it was.

      If he beats Chaves good for him, it will be a great first serious victory for him against a real champion. You seem to forget that Chaves is the one that holds the WBA interim, and he will be defending it against Thurman.

      There's a long road to go from there, Thurman is no fking Matthysse, or even a Lamont Peterson. He's no Chaves either as Chaves is the champ holding the belt they are fihting for. If Chaves beats him it would be his first fight in America against a highly regarded fighter so it would be a big step forward for him too. I simply dont see Thurman as wonderful a boxer as you do and think Chaves is more likely to win, that's all.
      Edit to add:
      you better not be making excuses, and calling Chaves a bum.
      hmmm... that sounds a lot like "you better not duck me son". You woudlnt be Keith Thurman now would you?

      What you mean Floyd Mayweather Jr.? Mayweather chin is superb actually, he never was put on his ass due to his chin.

      I meant it as Floyd being an excellent defensive fighter who is hard to hit.

        Watching Chaves fight, I just don't think he stands much of a chance. Especially knowing he's been dropped quite a few times by lesser fighters.

              Jaja! Yes, lets wait and see. I'm sure Chaves will put up a good fight either way because he's got a belt to defend. Lets hope Thurman, the best thing in boxing since Sugar Ray Robinson, doesnt get Mike Dallased.
              Say, you have: 1)GGG 2)Matthysse... and 3)Thurman ?
              Are you sure you're not Thurman or some close relative of his?

                I really like Thurman and hardly know anything about Diego Chavez, but I'm not gonna pick against an Argentinian. Those guys are killing it right now.
