      A lot of good fighters over the past few years, it's just that the matchups aren't being made

        Anyway, Thurman's a decent athlete and little else. He has the potential to be a poor man's David Haye but I don't hold much hope for him besides that.
        "poor man's David Haye".....nice description.

          I'm yet to ascertain how much of a threat Thurman is in the division. He has had some good wins against a decent level of competition but is yet to face the very good fighters in his division.

          Whereas Golovkin has beaten 2 top 10 middleweights as well as a whole host of challenger level competition. In fact, it's not just who he beat but how he beat them. Thurman has yet to be as destructive but he will have a harder time as welterweight is a much more packed division and middleweight is slowly starting to dwindle in top level talent.
