    Some skills, some power but matched with slow guys so far. His chin seems suspect to me, soon as he gets touched by someone like Prod, we will know. He does get hit and is a potential KO waiting to happen.

    I think his team are doing a goof job at building him slowly.

      I personally think the dude is pretty dangerous. He seems to be pretty intelligent, moves well, decent speed, adapts well. Hopefully he gets some big fights soon. He's a joy to watch

        Maidana is not mentioning his name, I think Bradley vs Thurman should be made now.

          He's overrated on this board like most KO artists. But it seems like he has the goods. Suprised no Thurman vs Ray Leonard or Robinson post yet.

              He's shown an ability to adapt and beat his opponents, overcoming adversity. But his best win is still Soto Karass. Let him get a few more good wins before we make a real judgement on him.

              I think he's a good boxer puncher, and the power is real. For some reason, I still thin his chin could wind up suspect against someone like Maidana.

              I think he could potentially beat everyone but Floyd, Manny, and Bradley right now at 147. He could beat Marquez depending on how far Marquez has declined.

              I'd like to see him fight Paulie or Ortiz next.

                I agree. Thurman is a joy to watch. The man is a killer at 147 lbs. He reminds me of a smaller David Haye. Love this style in the ring.

                  He is pretty good but Floyd, Bradley, Pac beat him imo. None of these guys are on the same level as what he has fought. Guerrero would be an extremely tough match for him, one I think he also loses.

                    Floyd maybe, but I think Thurman is too much of a monster for Bradley and Pacquiao even though a fight between Thurman and Pacquiao would be great.

                      great potential but he doesn't need to be rushed his defense is still too leaky. Give him another year or two
