Lets talk Keith Thurman...

Diego Chaves btw is far more of a fighter than he's getting credit for, he will prove it vs Rios.

THis^^^ Thurman doesnt get any credit for this fight...which he should

Chill man, no one is saying they don't like toe to toe. They're just saying Thurman should try and improve how open he gets sometimes.

He makes a good point thought bro. A lot of people who complain about defensive fighters go on to point out how bad it is when a fighter takes one (or two) to give one. It's a catch 22 with some people

Agreed with a few additional comments ....

Thurman has performed as expected against C-level opponents.

Thurman also, shows early signs of falling in love with his power and historically that will be to his detriment. I'm still looking forward to seeing him in the ring with a talented boxer that knows how to offset power with technique. Because so far, Thurman has gotten by on brute force alone, due to the level of competition put in front of him.

Once Thurman is put in the ring with better opposition, fans will be in a better position to evaluate his potential. Any evaluation based on what he's done to date would be premature and incomplete.

The bold along with the entire 2nd paragraph is mostly if not entirely false. Thurman has not fallen in love with his power and he showed the perfect example of that vs Chavez who had more power. Thurman has excellent ring generalship and when he realizes he won't get a fighter out of there with 1 shot, he utilizes the ring, counters better and breaks them down that way. I suggest you go re watch what you've seen of him while sober.


And on a side note, you can't fight a man if he won't fight you. Ask the Ghost and Maidana.

Thurman looks to be a beast.... It will be interesting to see his progression.

I wonder who he will fight next.
