That was an entertaining fight very good win for Thurman!

[Riley Freeman]

Thurman didn't go for the KO -- he had an easy UD in his hands...
(Broner beats Thurman anytime...)

Broner beats One Time?

Broner beats One Time?

... Broner beats "one time", anytime... (Broner is " politically connected" -- don't forget Paulie...)

andre berto or andre broner who's more overhyped? i'm still not convinced that they aren't the same guy.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

Broner vs Thurman would be great imo.

There are a lot of British fighters risking their 0s at the moment and I wish more Americans would do the same.

The same scientist probably.

Thurman was way too big for Chaves.

Thurman himself predicted on how the fight will progress and end...
He was right.

Thurman vs. Maidana should be a Christmas gift to Boxing fans from Golden Boy Productions! Plan B: I would love to see this bout as an undercard to Alexander vs. Khan, whenever that happens. GBP did their thing last night!

While both have things to work on I'd say both have the potential to become big names in boxing. It was Chaves first lost, it was Thurman hardest test so far as I knew it would be, nice borken nose and all. While Thurman has Al Haymon I'm sorry to see what crap of a corner Chaves has. Those of you that know Spanish probably heard it "Boludo, pelea" meaning "******* fight" and the likes of that isnt exaclty valuable corner talk, and I'm sure his training was inferior too.
Thurman is clealry doing very well, he adapted well, now if we could put Chaves under Robert Garcia or some other good trainer in USA the kid has a ton of potential.



I think Thurman is ready maybe not for the top guys, but a hyped big name like Broner that isnt much of a fighter. With the speed, power and resistance Thurman showed against Cahves I'm 90% sure he eats Broner for breakfast.

I agree with your opinion about Chaves's corner. I think this was a key difference. Chaves didn't have a Plan B. Thurman changed in time, or he could have been KOd during the first half of the fight. But I would add that Chaves didn't show enough reaction to adversity like Thurman did.

It was a too early kill or die test for Chaves. He should have fought Malignaggi instead. It seems (something I didn't know and learnt just now from the Argentinian press) that Chaves team dismissed the Malignaggi fight because they didn't like the purse. Another gross mistake.
