      All you guys saying "I haven't seen enough of Thurman." "He's not proven yet."

      Guy's been proven ever since he dominated Zaveck. Someone Berto went life and death with, before the refs stopped the fight on cuts.

      Yeah, Berto's a bum, but he was thought of as a potential superstar, and showed flashes of brilliance. Thurman went out there and treated the guy like a class A bum (which he isn't).

      Chavez just solidified that Thurman can hang with and take punishment from any WW in the game. Also won't quit, be there til the end.

      Karass isn't a pushover, but I expect a Thurman win in spectacular fashion, and a bunch of posters still underrating him.

      It's cool to hype up Broner, but Thurman gets treated like a redheaded step child.

        I think this is a good fight. Karass is going to test him. Hes not some guy who will shell up and hes not a slow podgy plodder who is going to try and be cute. Hes a tough son of a b1tch with a tremendous engine who is going to be not just be throwing back but throwing sheer volume.

        I would be very surprised if Thurman blew out Karass like a lot seemingly are expecting. Why?

        Karass is underrated and without a doubt really coming into his stride. Hes improved leaps and bounds.

              Karass has a lot of wear and tear on him by he has been looking good lately, even in his loss to Maidana. He was doing really well against Maidana but just started to trade to much with Maidana. But even after that fight he has looked good. I thought he was finished after the Rosado fight but he's looked better than ever in his last few fights. Weird kinda but it happens.

              Anyways, if Soto Karass can take Thurman's power and avoid getting into too many exchanges he can win his fight. I'm not so sure he can after all the wars he has been in.

                Thurman is going to KO him. thurman too big, too fast, too strong and hits too hard for someone as limited as him... i like Karass but they dont seem to be in the same league. Berto is one thing, Thurman another... Berto is like a fragile version of Thurman who throws a lot less punches and not as vicious. Hell, Chaves probably beats Karass.

                  I got Thurman winning, but in no way will this be a blowout. Karass is cute and rangy enough to keep this til the 9th or 10th round.

                  His activities also a reason why Thurman's gonna finish him.

                  Thurman works all 12 rounds, and throws thunder on each shot, and his kryptonite should be gassing, but it isn't. Also, the Chavez fight gives me way more confidence in Thurman as a fighter. That's all I really had to see out of him to know he's ready for the Karass/Guerrero's of this world.

                    Also, WAY better stamina and MUCH better chin.

                    Also, cuter in the ring, and knows how to use his legs.

                      Is it happening?

                      I've been begging for this fight... Its the perfect fight to do 1 of 2 things...

                      1. Show whether or not he's a hypejob or the real thing
                      2. HOPEFULLY (assuming he passes the test) help him figure out where he needs to grow, cause its not perfect yet
