    Well he is not overrated, I know that much. He is not in the top 10 P4P list and he's in the bottom half of the top 10 at WW. So he's ranked pretty low, I wouldn't classify that as overrated. Also, there is no Keith Thurman fanbase to speak of.

    I would say he's good and he will get better. He looks like the type that would step his game up as his competition increases in difficulty.

      Definitely looking forward to watching his progress in 2013. His fanbase will continue to grow.

        I very good fighter who has actually improve whilst stepping up his competition steadily, like someone else pointed out also he isn't overhype or overrated by some, he is probably the only power puncher that I have seen not been compared to Duran and Leonard rolled into one. He needs to keep improving whilst fighting better names/competition.

          Is there some overrating of Thurman going on? Yes, definitely. People get excited and go ****** over big punchers all the time. They can't help it
          U and that wannabe boxing fan, Truth, beneath ur post make me sick... Thurman on the same level or above D.Garcia??? Foh Garcia took the biggest threat in his division and f.ucked his ass up... Thurman took his biggest threat to date and almost got knocked out in the first round... Foh with ur fan boy bs...

            From the post that you quote the poster didn't imply what you are saying in your post, he never said Thurman was on the same level as Garcia. Don't know how you got that from his post, saying Thurman well "end up" around the level of guys like Garcia isnt the same thing as "They are on the same level"

              Ur right... I saw it from an altered point of view... So my bad to the poster I quoted... But Truth did state he Thurman was above Garcia, so my post still applies... Happy New Year Bro...

                Very unique style, doesn't jump in recklessly, he'll circle around you waiting until the time is right to explode, all whilst countering. Thurman has a very good counter left hook as well. Keith is a thinking fighter, patient, really like what I see so far.

                  As a Paulie fan, that's the last thing I want to see happen. Ortiz is a much better fight, like Thurman he's a strong welter.

                    Don't get your knickers in a twist mate, I've explained numerous times why D.Garcia is nowhere near as good as people make out and will be found out soon. He's just a good fighter, nothing more. His lack of movement and snail speed will cost him soon.

                      That wobble against Karass was pretty telling IMO. Another hype train for Maidana to derail for y'all. Prov would too.

                      He can be out boxed or out ******, to me, there is a question mark on his chin. Likable guy, talented... But that chin....
