Comments Thread For: Thurman: Me and Adrien Broner is a Tremendous Fight!

[J The UnBiased]

I love this fight. I'm not one of these idiots who act as if Broner is supposed to automatically duck somebody, and that Adrien is afraid of everybody and that it's an accident that he's a professional fighter as well. Broner can fight, Thurman can fight. Thurman is a big puncher at 147, Broner is new to the division. It's an exciting matchup, I think Broner wins it, but Thurman could definitely pull it off. He showed that he can adapt, and he's not 1 dimensional. He also seems a bit more focused to his craft than Broner, but Broner's raw talent just might be too much for Keith. We should see this fight a little down the line, after the Broner/Maidana bout(I believe this fight gets signed soon).

i dont see that. thurman could probably fight at jmw. broner could probably easily fight at jww. they arent the same size imo.

Broner has made a career of cutting so much weight that he cant fit in those lower weight classes. Seeing him in the Paulie fight, he is as big if not bigger then the top 10 at WW.

All of these "if Thurman lands to the body" or "Thurman cracks his chin" comments, with no evidence that Broner's body and chin can't withstand a Thurman onslaught. smh Whatever, this is an even fight.

Thurman i believe would put broner out....

Just too big and powerful and broners defense is suspect,,, he isnt a mover like floyd or hopkins,,, he is more stationary and i think that will cause broner problems at welter,,, He can get by with it at the lower weights because he is the bigger guy,,, but at welter i think he gets beat up after a few feel-out rounds...

Yes i concur,,,

I lean towards thurman,, but def a 50/50 fight

[J The UnBiased]

anyways, i think this is a great fight. of course around here, broner loses to everyone. but thurman does a lot of things that broner can take advantage of, he has poor balance and he lunges with his punches. his power is the real threat. but whos to say broner cant take his power? the diego chaves fight was kinda interesting. id call it a 50/50 fight, id favor the better technician in broner tho.

Exactly smh pure idiocy

Prior to the fight, I thought Thurman was a big welter, but seeing that he didn't gain that much weight after the weigh in, he's not that big at all. Broner is about his size now, but Broner should not be in this division. He's too big for 135, but he would be just fine at 140. Maybe he should go after the winner of Matthysse vs. Garcia. There's some good fights for him at 140. When big brother retires, he could move up.

Thurman really impressed me on Saturday more so than Broners performance with Malignaggi. That being said, can anyone direct me to a Broner fight were he fights a bigger man, big puncher. I still think this will be (if it happens) a 50/50 fight.

I would fear for Broner's life...

Thurman can move..is bigger AND stronger and hits harder? Good luck


Hell I wouldnt even feel comfortable with Broner vs Chaves. >__>...
