    He looked a little wreckless last night, missing quite a few shots I wouldn't expect him to miss. But he got the job done, as I expected him to. Made some dough on him last night.

      ...you guys are nuts. He's solid, but otherwise you're overrating the **** out of him.

      I'm just not sold It'll take more than Soto Karass who got stopped in 8 by Maidana and beaten by Mike Jones.

      I thought that spot was filled by Austin Trout?

        V Impressed.

        He can **** and box. Has great lateral movement, has a chin and an exciting very dynamic style. I particularly like the way he's able to transform his defence and explode into offence.

        Keith Thurman last night would've murdered Broner.

              Thurman is a unique blend of boxer and scrapper. This guy looks to be the goods, but he is still perfecting his craft.

              I think he is the future of boxing, he just needs those chances-which is going to be tough to get-especially after last night! I think he is being moved along the right way and in a few more fights I would like to see him against the upper eschalon of the division.

              He is quickly becoming a favorite of mine.

                  Great offensive fighter but his defense is leaky. He needs to work on his head movement or keep his hands up. Because when he steps up in class he will get hit more and more and land less. His defense can be his undoing as he moves up in weight.

                    Exactly. These are the type of fighters that should be getting the network's attention. Thurman is confident (not arrogant), entertaining fighter, and he has power. Most of all he makes his most important statements in the ring. I want to see Thurman fight Broner in order for Thurman to try to take Broner's star status, while Broner tries to reassert his self proclaimed p4p status.

                      lol, with all due respect, you were riding his d1ck pretty hard for a while there...until Canelo came in and more or less beat him.
