Comments Thread For: Thurman Aims To Be Undisputed Champ at Welterweight

Thurman has pop and decent speed but he fights in spurts and lunges with his punches. Against a younger, faster fighter than Zaveck, he will eat sumptuous counter shots.

Berto stopped Zaveck. Thurman being a harder puncher than Berto should have done the same.

Berto stopped Zaveck due to a cut (headbutt?) and was beginning to tire. Thurman won in better fashion. We still don't know for sure if Thurman is a bigger puncher, and maybe he just isn't. As long as he's winning, does it matter?

If Thurman pulls through on Diego Chaves in great fashion he needs respect. Diego Chaves in my opinion hits harder than Matthyse.

Berto stopped him with a cut I think, and was far from impressive, the fight was actually pretty even and Zaveck was starting to come on, I think he even hurt Berto. If it went for that cut there is a great chance Berto would've gotten KO'd.

I lost most any respect for the guy when he decided to talk about how great he was and than start calling out paulie malignaggi. Give me a break.

Paulie had a belt, and getting a belt is one of the best ways to become the pursued instead of pursuer

Man, if you had more points, I'd bet you. Matthysse is going to KO Garcia, there is no other outcome.

It was a cut from a butt and Zavec was bringing it to him after the first 2 rounds. IMO, could have been 2-2 before the stoppage.
He was inside giving it to Berto

I can think of a couple. But hey, You can put me out the game on a bet. I'll put all of mine that Garcia wins it
