    Thurman went through the mill in the Chaves fight, I think he's showed the intangibles.

      I wonder how Thurman would deal with Maidana's punching Power. I still have to go with Thurman by TKO/KO but Maidana will be game and really take the fight to Thurman. It would be an action packed fight, that's for sure.

      I hope they make this fight next. I have a feeling they are going to try to make Paulie vs Maidana.

        And please people. None of that, "bahahaha, I told ya fighter x would win! He's an overrated bum!"

        When you get 2 guys that ****. One of them going down, or getting hurt real bad in the beginning and never recovering, shouldn't be a shock to anyone.

        I really don't want to see any of that, "hahahaha, your boy is overrated!' BS I always see on here.

          AHhh! I like Maidana but I'm not sure about him vs Thurman. His body attack is great, but has been hurt multiple times now and Maidana hits harder than anyone he's faced. I got Maidana by KO.

            Even fight early, Thurman takes over and either wins the decision or gets the late stoppage. He would need to be careful or Maidana might blast him in the first half of the fight.

              I can't believe how people still underrate maidana. Thurman has not faced the adversity maidana has and persevere. You saw soto karass stagger him with an overhand right if that was chino it would have been good night.

              Thurman is pretty good but to say he's just going to walk thru a monster like chino is outright delusional.

                Thank you! This is so true! Mares got KO'ed and he's "a paper champion"...what?! Even if you don't lose, look at Froch. Fighters lose, get hurt, and knocked down. It happens, sports would be boring if the favorite ALWAYS won. Everyone loses.

                  Exactly, mate. One guy has to lose. Doesn't mean they're an overrated bum.

                    I don't think Thurman is great but I'd be willing to bet he'd wreck Maidana.

                      Too much respect for chino to call it a ko but Thurman beats him every time.

                      Bad matchup. (For Chino, great for fans) Thurman has stone hands, body work and vicious counters are trouble for Maidana. Maidana should go after Paulie. Beat him up and try to get Floyd. Avoid Thurman and Porter
