    Great video highlighting Thurman's predictable rhythm

    Karass can win this if he fights smart.

    Thurman is the next Matthysse, if Karass doesn't expose him, someone else will.

        Predicting the Karass upset is audacious, I'm gonna put it out there that he will get the upset, but I'm not gonna lie, it's not the most confident prediction.

        Thurman is getting exposed sooner or later and that's all there is too it.

          To be fair to Thurman though, he's still early in his career. He can still improve when he gets more experience against good fighters. Fighting Karass is a good test for him.

              I agree with this. The video does make a great point but I don't think that this is a flaw that Karass will be able to capitalize on. Guys with more elite footwork will be able to capitalize but a pressure fighter like Karass will not have the style, speed, or the footwork to take advantage. I do think Karass could win this but his good chin will probably not hold up to Thurman's power just because of how many shots will get through and how clean they will be.

                What exactly do you mean exposed? Most fighters will eventually lose no matter how good they are. Are you one of those fans that are just waiting for him to lose so you can say I TOLD YOU SO, HE GOT EXPOSED!!!!!!!

                Thurman is a young good fighter that could very well turn into a top fighter in the future but I don't see anyone saying Thurman is some kind of unstoppable force that can't lose. He's very talented and a potentional future star, that's all.

                  You mean he's not going to beat everyone he faces for the next couple of years and retire undefeated ? I'm not buying it.

                    A lot of fighters do this, gaining a bit of rhythm before going on the attack, thurman won't be matched up with anyone who can expose that for awhile.

                    Guys who get off before Thurman and slide left or right will give Thurman fits though.

                    Thurman is still overrated to me, kind of like Berto when he was coming up. But I do give Thurman a lot of props for showing he could win a fight when it wasn't going his way early. That Chavez win def brought his stock up, but no where near the level as a lot of people here seem to think it did.
