    Is Khan vs Thurman a better tune up for Khan going to 147?

    I mean Thurman has power but Khan has the speed, reach and agility. Khan is going up to 147 so wouldn't it be better for him to test his skills against someone he is faster than? As long as Khan can avoid the looping shots from Thurman he should be ok imo...

        Look how Khan did against Maidana, I reckon he could stay in the pocket and trade with Thurman

          Imho Thurman is legit. I think he beats everyone at WW bar Pacquiao, Floyd ducks him imo. Just my opinion, time will tell.

            Thurman would be ducking Khan imo. Too much speed and heart.

              Khan might have to slug it out with Thurman but I think it would go the distance and Thurman would gass.

                Thurman KO's Khan. He might look good early because of his speed but he'd end up getting caught. There's a reason Guerrero didn't want to fight him.

                  Thurman's the real Deal. Other then Floyd/Manny, who do you REALLY favor over Thurman?

                  Let's get rel here folks.

                  Alexander, target practice
                  Maidana, target practice
                  Bradley, Ruslan happened
                  JMM, no PEDs, gets hurt against a BIG WW like Keith.
                  Guerrero, he shook

                    I'm sorry but Khan would crumble with a solid shot from Thurman. KO1 maybe 2 if Khan gets on his unicycle after tasting the canvas several times and getting saved by the ref.
